A nice feature set.

And a modern GlitchSocial instance has added features compared to the vanillla Mastodon ones.

Rich Text -- Markdown and BBcode, is built right in. I love that. Heads up for what looks like an interesting place for an account.

@emuz Nice work. Success to you and the instance. Curiosity -- what's the story about the "kafuka" name?

@design_RG Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!

As for the story about the name. It's a semi-obscure Japanese word for "Overloaded". It comes from an old series of Mario ROM hacks I made decades ago. At the time I was able to get kafuka.org It kind of stuck and I've used it as my not-for-profit/projects name since! (.me was chosen as the TLD for the instances because kafuka and me sound funny when spoken outload! ) ​

@emuz I was really curious about the name. It seemed similar to some funny English words.

@realcaseyrollins , think about another RealCaseyRollins @ KamFukWi.me ? LOL. 😜

Sorry for the little joke, it's good to know the origin of the name, and that is not a collapsed funny one like this above.

I like your choice of GlitchSocial, it's a nice platform, I enjoy it in a couple other instances where I have accounts.

I would suggest you could promote the awesome support of Rich Text options in GS -- #MarkDown and #BBcode right off the box, fully supported.

For someone in #Publishing, that is Great -- and I do use it to prepare my Blog Release posts with some of the possible touches MD enables. Header size, bold and italic; quote blocks, code tag with pretty contrasting text.

Succes with your instance, Tom! Thanks for offering an awesome service that takes effort, dedication and expense; many people don't even realize how much.
