<p><img src="assets/logo.png" alt="Iceshrimp" width="400px"></p> <p><strong>Iceshrimp</strong> is a decentralized and federated social networking service, implementing the <strong>ActivityPub</strong> standard.<br> It was forked from <del>Calckey</del> Firefish (itself a fork of Misskey) in mid-2023, to focus on stability, performance and usability instead of new features.</p> --- > **Note** > This project is **not** inactive. > > Almost all of our current development efforts are going into the Iceshrimp.NET [rewrite](/iceshrimp/Iceshrimp.NET), to further our goal of increasing stability and performance.<br/> > This means that Iceshrimp-JS (this project) is only receiving security patches and minor bug fixes. Support is of course still available on the usual channels. > > There is already an easy upgrade path available for existing Iceshrimp instances, though we don't recommend taking it just yet.<br/> > With Iceshrimp.NET getting ever-closer to a stable release, we hope you're just as excited as we are. Check out the [repository](/iceshrimp/Iceshrimp.NET) for more information. --- - Highlighted changes: - First-class Mastodon client API support - Significantly improved database performance - Options to prune cached remote media automatically - Proper support for split domain deployments, both local and remote - So much more - Read the [changelog](CHANGELOG.md) to get an overview of all changes - Don't like the Web UI?
