悲报：Misskey 分支之一 Firefish停止维护
似乎是初始的开发者跑路并甩给了开发人员中的一位，这位开发者惊讶之余，因不堪技术上和心理上的重负，从而正式宣布Firefish停止维护。
相关服务器管理员（比如我）可以将 Firefish 降级到20240206/1.0.5-rc版本，并迁移到另一个 Misskey 变体，或者可以分叉 Firefish 进行进一步开发。

考虑到官方实例很快就会下线，所以把官方通告做成了图片留存。
另外，本实例即基于 Firefish 项目，考虑到后期维护，会留有难民窗口期，时间一到就会回滚到 Misskey 主线上去。

And now that I think about it, that makes it two years since I started my #Friendica instance. I've been on the #Fediverse for much longer of course (including other #ActivityPub apps I've hosted here such as #Akkoma and #Firefish ), but still, happy #Fediversary to me!
The time has come and I'm beyond excited 😁
We just opened registrations on catodon.rocks.
I know that Catodon created a lot of expectations when Firefish fell apart, and I'm sure many of you were disappointed to see it not going anywhere for a long time. This time I am doing it on my own, so things will happen the way they should have. And, although you can now check it out for youselves, I will say this: I firmly believe that it's better, on every level, than Firefish ever was. I was in both projects, I love them both, but Catodon combines the best features of Firefish and Sharkey, while also being very debloated, being much more comprehensible, and adding actually useful stuff - and I have more plans for the future.
I'd love to hear your feedback on the UX of Catodon, and see how we can improve it further! Let's create the fedi experience we deserve =)

RE: https://catodon.rocks/notes/ajo1s763f05z0002
Sharkey is generally no longer actively maintained. Much like IceShrimp, which shifted its focus from IceShrimp-js to IceShrimp.net, Sharkey is effectively in "maintenance mode only." This means it still receives critical security updates and required patches, but it generally no longer tracks upstream Misskey development.
Sharkey's latest release: 2025.4.7
Misskey's latest release: 2026.9.0
I had to laugh when, back on January 13, 2026, they titled a release "2025.4.5 — We'll catch up, we promise." The release right before that had been 6 months earlier. In all the time since, they've only pushed out 2 security updates (2025.4.6 and 2025.4.7). They are now well over a year behind Misskey's development.
If anyone has the time and skills, I hope someone builds a script to migrate Sharkey sites back to Misskey. Since Sharkey is a fork of Misskey (as was FireFish), it should be possible and is a smart precaution.
