Iceshrimp

Iceshrimp is a decentralized and federated social networking service, implementing the ActivityPub standard.
It was forked from Calckey Firefish (itself a fork of Misskey) in mid-2023, to focus on stability, performance and usability instead of new features.

Note

This project is not inactive.

Almost all of our current development efforts are going into the Iceshrimp.NET rewrite, to further our goal of increasing stability and performance.
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.
With Iceshrimp.NET getting ever-closer to a stable release, we hope you're just as excited as we are. Check out the repository for more information.
