On one hand: one of the few apps that support both #ActivityPub, Threadiverse groups and #RSS natively. On the other: it's the fork of an existing active web app and seems to be heavily vibe-coded. My search for a successor to #Friendica continues, I suppose. codefloe.com/catodon/catodon

Big Media reeeeeally pushing me to keep things self-hosted now, huh. First it was my #Friendica to #Twitter grandparented cross-poster becoming a paid API, today it's my #RSS via #IFTTT to #Facebook Pages getting the latter suspended for "inauthentic behavior".

"Funniest" part? I didn't remember which app did I use to make the cross-posting to Facebook Pages! Had to hunt down my emails to remember where was the connector so I could disable it for good.

#Friendica has the ability to display email contacts as bona fide contacts you can receive messages from. (Can't test myself since my inbox is 7 GB large and times out when I connect.) #DeltaChat also uses email as its transfer protocol. Would DeltaChat conversations appear as such on Friendica?

I'm aware that DeltaChat uses IMAP as a transport layer only nowadays, and they're increasingly reliant on relays and their custom web-app format. Still, some basic group functionality in an "everything app" like Friendica (which supports IMAP, RSS, ActivityPub and ATProto, among other less used protocols like Diaspora and OStatus) would be welcome
