Koyu.space (discontinued)

Other languages:

koyu.space is a fork of Glitch-soc which is a fork of Mastodon powering the instance with the same name. Due to many changes to the codebase it reports its own user agent and NodeInfo, but it is still compatible with Mastodon and its forks. It aims to support features that glitch-soc didn't port over or scrapped and a few more features.

This article is about a Fediverse project that doesn't exist anymore!
The text below might read like the project still exists, but that would just be, because it wasn't updated yet..
