There's actually an option for 1 time payment to just remove ads.

Interesting idea. Here's my proposal: go touch grass

He's literally talking about the ability to migrate accounts, or the very least export your data. Which is a feature on many platforms of Fediverse. There's no "extend" whatsoever

Can't argue with this one

Sync also has instance blocking feature. Though it's not perfect since it only blocks posts, you can still see comments from filtered instances. Hopefully it will improve in future

I've used Mastodon in the past, and currently Sharkey(a Misskey fork) is my microblogging platform of choice.

Mastodon: fast, polished, and has a huge choice of different apps for all platforms. But the main drawback is its lack of features. "Why can't I search for the posts" " or "Why there's no quote repost button?"

It was obvious to me that Mastodon can't do all the things I need. I was desperately thinking that I'll have to move back to Twitter, but at the last moment Calckey rebranded itself to Firefish, and it got my attention. "Finally, a great replacement for Twitter" I thought. But the terrible performance of firefish. social made my experience with fediverse just terrible (I also used Calckey.world, but I moved from it for no reason tbh).

I was once again searching for an alternative, and this time I found it.

Sharkey: has all the features of Misskey + added some from other forks (like Firefish's post editing). I picked a small instance with less than 10 people, and the performance is really great. My only nitpick is that you can't swipe between home/local/federated feeds like in Firefish, but that's a small issue.

I personally think Misskey (and its forks) should become the mainstream microblogging platforms on the fediverse, while Mastodon should retire.

Or Misskey/Firefish

Where's the joke?

With this post I just described some people I've met on my journey through fediverse that were saying that they love fediverse meaning by it only Mastodon, as if it's the only platform out there. It's a small number of people, that don't affect anything. Of course after spending more time on fediverse they find out about other platforms(and that's good). The point of the meme is just to make a little fun of them, nothing offensive.
