Akkoma - Magically Expressive Social Media
(akkoma.social)
A community dedicated to fediverse news and discussion.
Fediverse is a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe".
Getting started on Fediverse;
Gotosocial might be the better choice for single user instances.
I run Akkoma myself and it is nice overall, but I was surprised how relatively resource heavy it is. Lightweight is relative, and it is lightweight compared to Mastodon only.
I think the main advantage of Akkoma over other options is the extreme customizability of it.
I had forgotten about this one! I know very little about it though ... really appreciate the minimalistic approach.
Perhaps in a similar boat would be microblog.pub which might be preferable for people who want to hack their instance and are more comfortable with python, or want indieweb compatibility too.
