and I checked in and added a follow to Puniko - hers seems to be a nice Pleroma instance, with SO MUCH more than the vanilla masto with 500 chars Toots allowed (and unbending admins when you request some more)
Will visit and check out Facilities -- the front page has some hints of a good place to be!
* 60, 000 (60 Thousand!!) characters limit, take that, Eugen.
* choice of the Pleroma UI/Front End -or- the more mastodon user friendly Mastodon FE (which is the Elite Glitch-Social variety -- so lots of new and improved features compared to masto.social variety)
* As in ALL Pleroma instances, rich formatted text is a Human Right -- and I absolutely love the posts I have been creatign with #MarkDown at Glitch-social instances I have recently joined.
Another pinprick to Eugen, lol... Don't gimme what I want, I am out, friend.
Kudos, thank you and appreciation to Puniko!
oh, my instance supports a bit more than pleroma itself does. like \(\LaTeX\) for example
or this! (look at this post on my instance)

Same for QOTO, we support several things that pleorma doesnt, and ultimately why for the moment I am not moving us.
Namely we too support latex. We also support pseudocode format, and remote timelines as well as subscriptions and several other features absent on pleorma.
The remote timelines is the big deal breaker for me right now.

Get the goodies from Glitch-Social and you could really offer me something I am yearning for.
Qoto remains my main account, but I so enjoy crafting a neat #MarkDown love post.
OMG. No comparison.
A real, real plus for me at Qoto -- major kudos as I use it ALL the time --Is the FULL TEXT search enabled. 2 years of posts and I CAN find things, if I use the right word.
Mastodon vanilla feature, but Disabled in most instances as it takes rAM and processing power to offer. Should be standard, but it's not, I miss it even in Elite instances like Hackers.Town which have outstanding performace.

If you add markdown support **and** remote time lines that might be enought to see QOTO convert.
@absturztaube @emuz @realcaseyrollins@mstdn.social @stux @design_RG
I'll add Markdown support, but there will also be a lot of other things Mastodon won't have, like ChatMessages (my mockup attached), and soon Groups. Pleroma is really where the innovation is happening. Not to mention it's a more solid foundation and way more efficient.
Yes QOTO is not plain mastodon, I have customized it with several additional features. One of them is the ability to view a remote timeline.
Basically on QOTO you can setup a column that is either devoted to looking like the local timeline of a remote instance, or combines several remote timelines into one column.
In this way you dont need multiple accounts on multiple instances. My account on qoto lets me follow the timelines of any instances I would otherwise want an account on and get to see their local feed as a column in my own QOTO local client.
@absturztaube @emuz @realcaseyrollins@mstdn.social @stux @design_RG
Since you've already developed this stuff you could help add it to Pleroma. Unlike Mastodon they will actually merge your features as long as they're stable and have automated tests.
Learning Elixir is a bit of a hurdle at first, but I believe it's a better technical choice for the Fediverse. We'll be thankful for it in the long term.
What language is pleorma written in? I havent really looked into coding for it.

I still have my philly home. In fact I am in it at the moment. Its where all my labs are so I have a need for it.
Phoenix would be new for me but I usually find learning most new languages is trivial so in and of itself it wouldnt be a road block.
Though I must admit how enjoyable i find a language has a huge effect on how motivated I am to develop for it. So i cant speak to that aspect just yet. But I am polyglot programmer. So a new language wont be a huge deal I'd imagine.
Then there is a matter of time... I have a lot of projects on my plate.. But I will look into it, you may see a PR from me int he near future.
