Seems like I'm not the only one that wants #Chatterbox's core features: https://sporks.space/2026/02/10/a-few-design-decisions-for-a-new-chat-platform/

@adam actually came across #chatterbox just now searching for a federated chat solution that doesn’t suck and got your September blog post. Oh boy, do I wish the About page of your mastodon didn’t say “unfinished project collector” :phossmug:

@adam At first I wasn’t too keen with the whole “client-to-server federation” idea but it’s growing on me. Being able to just accept an invite and tossing credentials at the server sounds good as long as moderation works (which I can imagine might be complex)!Can’t wait. Literally and figuratively. Thanks for your efforts!

@shanie Thanks! Yeah, moderation will likely look like Fediverse moderation (with all its flaws), with the ability to ban remote users or instances from your instance.One additional moderation tool I am trying to add is a quarantine feature: you can mark all external users, or users from certain instances, as quarantined until a mod approves them; while quarantined they are only allowed to DM mods and bots.
