Exploring the fediverse has been fun, but I'm still trying to figure out things. I have a mastodon account, but also decided to check out other fediverse projects and came across misskey. Made an account or miruku.cafe, and it seems quite similar to mastodon to me. Are they very similar?

Thanks a lot. That was informative. I'll also check out Calckey.

I tried calckey but it doesn’t handle or search hashtags well at all. As far as I can tell, you can create “Antennas” to watch hashtags but they will only monitor and grab new content, so you won’t see any past uses before your antenna creation.

Hm for me it really works well. Especially because it has full text search by default. 👀 Just took me some time to figure out how to search accounts because I was used to how it is on mastodon and didn’t see that when you search for a users name it defaults to posts but there’s a tab for users.
