A nice feature set.
And a modern GlitchSocial instance has added features compared to the vanillla Mastodon ones.
Rich Text -- Markdown and BBcode, is built right in. I love that. Heads up for what looks like an interesting place for an account.

@emuz Nice work. Success to you and the instance. Curiosity -- what's the story about the "kafuka" name?
@design_RG Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!
As for the story about the name. It's a semi-obscure Japanese word for "Overloaded". It comes from an old series of Mario ROM hacks I made decades ago. At the time I was able to get kafuka.org It kind of stuck and I've used it as my not-for-profit/projects name since! (.me was chosen as the TLD for the instances because kafuka and me sound funny when spoken outload! )
@design_RG @emuz I'll check it out, no doubt! #GlitchSocial seems cool but I've never actually been on an instance before.
#glitchsocial is the Future. Right now, here, and looks and feels like the vanilla ones.
But -- it adds pizzazz and a more open project, development than main stream #mastodon .
A LOT of good ideas, already implemented. You could also consider https://koyu.space/ , another GS instance and quite nice.
For an average mastodon user, transition is painless. For the ones that care to discover the Extras, it's SO much nicer.
Waiting for Eugen to bless rich text, #Markdown? Already in use, at GS and #Pleroma everywhere.
@realcaseyrollins @design_RG It's very much what you know with some cool little extras! I'll DM you a single use invite so you can jump in without having to be approved!
