Hosting a single service for the whole fediverse (slrpnk.net)

Hey folks, I have several accounts across the fediverse (Lemmy, pixelfed, mastodon, bookwyrm), and I think it would be neat to have a single identity across all these platforms.

I'm an amateur self hoster, and was looking into Rebased, a fork of Pleroma. If I were to create a single user instance on rebased, what would I be missing over these accounts on all these services? Could I still use the different apps? (Blorp, Pachli, Rocinante). Would I be missing features?

What exactly is it that you heard about the Pleroma devs? As far as I've seen the only people who seem to have something against them always vague post and never specify what is it that bothers them.

    They are right-wing "free speech" / 4chan chuds, that tollerated until very recently an even worse dev that is trolling a lot as a TERF, currently works for Truth Social (Trump's MAGA cesspit) and also made the Rebased fork after being finally kicked out.

    The codebase is also a mess full of half-baked ideas. A few years ago the more reasonable people forked off Pleroma into Akkoma and spend significant time cleaning up the codebase.

    I just use Akkoma and their forks because of that.

    Though, I don't like that you conflate free speech defenders with the right-wing.

    This is why I put it as "free speech". Sadly the alt-right has pretty much captured the term in english speaking online spaces. Some people also started to call the alt-right interpretation of it "freeze peach" because of that.

    I'm probably just parroting vague vibes like you say. The first time I heard of pleroma was in the context of Lemmy.world defederating from a ton of pleroma instances that were far right, or otherwise undesirable. But that's more the users and not the software itself.

    @srasmus @Aeder Figured I'd chime in as I've been on the #Fediverse for as long as #Gab joined it (as it was, interestingly enough, the first #Fediverse instance I've ever been on!).

    The #Pleroma userbase is the most diverse that you'll find on the #Fediverse. You've got crazy alt right folks, gooners, pedophiles, left wingers (usually left wing #Pleroma users will be #trans who just want to self host or be on a super small instance) and more. /1
