This is a sad but honest and justified announcement. Unfortunately Firefish will reach its EoL by the end of the year. Naskya never wanted to be in this position, still she did her best and kept Firefish alive for another year (Kainoa had stopped engagement by the end of 2023). All of us running Firefish servers are grateful to Naskya for maintaining and improving the project for all of us.So, what about the future? I think that the main options for #Firefish admins are #Sharkey and #Iceshrimp. Sharkey is great but personally I find it somewhat bloated and with confusing terminology (because I find Misskey bloated and with confusing terminology). I'm involved in Iceshrimp which is a super ambitious project, and I feel that in some ways it's the natural continuation of Firefish, as they are doing a full rewrite, and that was the plan for Firefish too. Every dev who has worked with Firefish's codebase seemed to believe that a rewrite is unavoidable, and I'm happy that this plan is being carried out by a project that started as a Firefish fork anyway. So this is where the continuation of this journey lies, and I'm super excited for the future.Still, #Calckey and #Firefish were a big part of my life for around a year, and I'm sad to see it go, but life happens, and it's time for Firefish to draw the curtain. It's been a terrific ride for a while, and let it be an inspiration to do even greater things.So long, and thanks for all the firefish!RE: info.firefish.dev/notes/9xsukr38m3komd63
