Sadly, I’m looking for a new instance in the next week or two. Any recommendations for a stable, yet nerdy new home on Mastodon?

So we are working on Vernissage support in Pixelix. We already adapted the app architecture to support multiple platforms in a clean way. Now we are implementing features step by step.
Already working are:
- Timelines (with liking, bookmarking and replies)
- Trending posts

Now also the profile page is working when using Pixelix with Vernissage. It also shows the banner image if the user has one (also the banners from Mastodon users).
And the liked-posts-page is implemented too.

DrFed is our sister project, built alongside #Fedify to tackle the debugging side of #ActivityPub development. It just received @nlnet funding and now has its own account here: @drfed.

Some of you have already heard of us as #Fedify Studio. We now have a proper name: DrFed, short for “Doctor Fed.” We've also just received funding from @nlnet, through the NGI0 Commons Fund.
#DrFed is a web app for debugging #ActivityPub interoperability failures. When two implementations don't federate, the slow part is usually figuring out where the exchange broke: signing, JSON-LD processing, WebFinger, or something less obvious. DrFed's first job is to show where it failed.
We're the team behind @fedify: @2chanhaeng, @gaebalgom, @hongminhee, and @z9mb1. We'll post updates when there's something to try.

We need to move on from the obsession with growth as a proxy for “better”, or “success”; and instead dig in on, just improving.
It doesn’t need millions of people to make something better, it needs a few, or just one.
We make better communities by helping one another, fixing things; seeing things that need some love, and finding new ways to give that to them.
I’m not going to stop participating, or making things, or encouraging others, just because a thousand people don’t show up tomorrow.

if you hide the featured tab in #mastodon 4.6 #fedicat will respect that setting and not show featured tags/posts/accounts/collections on your profile

I've added a simple "Donate" button in the app in order to support myself.
I'm hoping it's not too intrusive(?) You'll only see it if you choose to click the ☕ icon.

It adds a boost visibility option, a remove button in thread composition, an unread DM badge in the bottom menu, a mixed conversation mode, and announcement badges.
I also prioritized all bugs with an easy fix to clear out several of them, including some old ones.

The second release candidate for #Mastodon 4.6 is now out!
It addresses several issues found in 4.6.0-rc.1, and is expected to become 4.6.0 later this week.
You can see all the changes on the release page: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/releases/tag/v4.6.0-rc.2
If you are an admin, updating ahead of the full 4.6.0 release would be a great help to find and squash any last-minute bugs!
