New Social Media Service

In an attempt to further the freedom of speech, I have added a new Misskey social media site to Eskimo North. It can be reached through our Web-Apps menu on the main website eskimo.com/ or directly at misskey.eskimo.com/.

It is a minimal setup at present so not super pretty but I’ll fill it out as time permits.

This joins our other social media sites, friendica.eskimo.com/, hubzilla.eskimo.com/, mastodon.eskimo.com/, nextcloud.eskimo.com/ and our federated search engine yacy.eskimo.com/.

What is Misskey? Why so many platforms in the Fediverse anyway? I can see having one or two micro-blogging platforms and one or two macro-blogging platforms, maybe a photo-sharing platform and a music one, but now there are a zillion of them and who knows what they do.
@ℝ𝕠𝕓𝕚𝕟 Misskey is a Microblogging platform similar to Mastodon but in my view, a little less cramped. Yes there are many of these platforms, why? Because Linux and open source code in general promote choice and different people make different choices.

Yeah, I guess you're right. I, a way it's the same question as "Why are there so many Linux distributions."

Diaspora is down to 39 pods now, worldwide. It's kinda sad, because d* was among the first federated platforms and so easy to use (for end-users anyway).
