Hey Friendica users! There is now a Friendica app called Raccoon available in the Google Play store:

➡️ play.google.com/store/apps/det…

It's also available on F-Droid:

➡️ f-droid.org/packages/com.livef…

As well as Friendica, the app is also compatible with Mastodon and Glitch Mastodon.

Friendica is a Fediverse platform so you can follow and interact with Friendica users from Mastodon. If you've never heard of Friendica and want to know more, have a look at fedi.tips/friendica-a-flexible…

Guessing that might be a result of Google Play's weird rules?

Google Play and Apple App Store have very odd rules regarding federated social networks. Big tech app stores assume all apps will only be designed for centralised networks, and the rules make no sense for decentralised networks. They may require the app maker to take responsibility for content.

(Weirdly these rules don't apply to email, but I guess that is so common already that they don't want to exclude it.)

@Fedi.Tips content classification is the result of how I filled in the form while creating the application page on Google Play. As a developer of the mobile app, I can not take legal responsibility of what servers host, so I gave very "conservative" answers. And the result was a 18+ classification. Hope I won't go to jail at least...

I just downloaded it ... It's having issues logging into Facebook.space ... It goes to my instance and then says operation successful {?} ... And goes back to the login page

p.s. A couple of questions answered:

1. No, this isn't a dating app! It's just a general social media platform on the Fediverse. It has features somewhat similar to Facebook's.

2. The "18+ Extreme Violence" tag is totally misleading, this isn't an adult app and it doesn't contain any violence. The label is there just because Google Play's rules aren't really suited to apps which let you sign in on a server of your choice. Google effectively forces Fedi app makers to use restricted ratings.

Poliverso - notizie dal Fediverso ⁂

@. ݁₊ ⊹ Juniper . ݁₊ ⊹ Mastodon glitch-soc is a friendly fork of Mastodon that offers some improved features:
- posts formatted in Markdown or HTML
- enhanced features for publishing concatenated threads
- more customizable interface, with the possibility to collapse long posts
- publishing posts visible only from the instance

Of course the formatting options can be used to their full potential only if the 500 character limit is removed, but that can be done without using glitch-soc

Glitch is an unofficial customised version of Mastodon with extra features added, such as rich text formatting and making it easier to have higher character limits.

A lot of the features on Mastodon were originally created by Glitch Mastodon and then copied over to the official version of Mastodon.

Because Mastodon and Glitch Mastodon are both free open source software, they can use and contribute to each other's code like this.
