   @stgiga@blahaj.zone @youronlyone@c.im @youronlyone@catodon.social & talking about #Fedi history by the way, since the doc itself says it is a living doc, there are a few notable instances not yet mentioned there that were recently developed by high-profile (or at least notable enough for us) Fedi users & might have verifiable links or posts that can give them a place within the doc’s timeline:
   • #Fedibird (#Mastodon fork) by @noellabo@fedibird.com
   • #Sharkey (a very popular #Misskey fork) by @Amelia@transfem.social (& others from the @Sharkey@shonk.social project) since 2023
   • maybe #IceShrimp (#Firefish fork?), unsure if it’s notable enough for inclusion or if supported by verifiable links (even I don’t know who created it).
   I leave it up to @youronlyone@c.im whether certain popular extensions (if not forks per se) like #GlitchSoc (extending Mastodon) & #Soapbox (extending or modifying #Pleroma) can be added to the timeline as well.
   Also, I will definitely not suggest for inclusion (or even a footnote mention) a certain #Akkoma fork that was given an obscene name by a fringe group of people (let’s just pretend it never existed, OK?) :ablobcatknitsweats:

     @silsinn9821 I'm trying to think of a way to include forks, but it's so hard to set a criteria.

     If we follow Wikipedia's, notability is still subjective. However, by not setting any criteria, it will end up listing everything; and it's already challenging finding the first release dates of projects, especially forks. ^^;;

     Maybe popularity? A combination of number of instances in existence + total daily active users?

     But, yes, I need help finding the first release date of projects. I usually rely on when it was first forked, and then enter it in web.archive.org/save and archive.ph.

     ^_^
