'''Akkoma''' is a specialised and opinionated fork of [[Special:MyLanguage/What is Pleroma?|Pleroma]]. It is faster-paced in development and aligns itself more closely with [[Special:MyLanguage/What is Misskey?|Misskey]] than Pleroma mainline.

==What are some limitations?==
Akkoma is a faster-paced fork, it has a varied and potentially experimental feature set tailored specifically to the corner of the Fediverse inhabited by the project creator and contributors.
 
This should not be considered a one-for-one match with Pleroma; it is more opinionated in many ways, and has a smaller community (which is good or bad depending on your view)
 
For example, Akkoma has:
 
* Custom Emoji reactions (compatible with misskey)
* Misskey-flavoured markdown support
* Elasticsearch and Meilisearch support for search
* Mastodon frontend (Glitch-Soc and Fedibird flavours) support
* Automatic post translation via DeepL or LibreTranslate
* Quote-posting
* Local-only posting
* A multitude of heavy modifications to the Pleroma Frontend (Pleroma-FE)
* The "bubble" concept, in which instance administrators can choose closely-related instances to make a "community of communities", so to say
* Akkoma takes a more opinionated stance on issues like Domain blocks, which are enforced far more on Akkoma.
