'''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.  

Akkoma differentiates itself by focusing on user experience and expression as a first priority.

Also, unlike Pleroma which has assumed instances are small or single-user, Akkoma instead is treating each instance as a community in its own right.  

To this end Akkoma has functionality that allows several self-governing communities (instances) to band together in a larger community of instances, where they can share a specific "bubble" timeline.

**You can install your own front-ends

*Dynamic loading of content - this means that if replies are made as you are reading a conversation/thread, the new replies slot right in before your eyes without you having to reload the view or use a "back" button and then re-visit the conversation/thread to force a reload.

*Your content streams can have a tree-view for helping in visualizing conversations, threads and "who" replied to "whom" - this creates better context

**Markdown-variant (MFM), with added support for special effects like bouncing text and sparkles.

*Messages can be translated with DeepL, ArgosTranslate or LibreTranslate (if the admin has configured translations)

{{Comparison of microblogging services}}

With Akkoma you can post longer posts - usually 5,000 characters, though some instances have even larger character limits.   

There is no algorithm deciding what you get to see and what not, but the feed is chronological and based on who you follow and what the people you follow boost.

Akkoma adds features such as a Bubble timeline, local-only posting and compatibility with the Mastodon client API (and thus may be used with Mastodon mobile apps).

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

* Akkoma takes a more opinionated stance on issues like Domain blocks, which are enforced far more on Akkoma.
