+## akkoma
+
+*a smallish microblogging platform, aka the cooler pleroma*
+
+### Why though?
+
+pleroma as a project has stagnated of late. after a spat between
+developers led to a fork (which died due to chronic lack of direction),
+nearly nobody seems to _want_ to work on it. this in addition to the
+BDFL being AWOL whenever needed, means that the entire project is
+nought but a power vacuum waiting for someone to step in. and with the
+track record pleroma has, i do not trust that whoever steps in will be
+good for the project.
+
+thus, i am striking out on my own. i already had a few modifications
+on my instance, so it wasn't a particularly large leap to assume direct
+control.
+
+### But really, why should I migrate to your thing?
+
+aside from me actually being responsive? let's lookie here, we've got
+- custom emoji reactions
+- misskey markdown (MFM) rendering and posting support
+- elasticsearch support (because pleroma search is GARBAGE)
+- latest develop pleroma-fe additions
+- local-only posting
+- probably more, this is like 3.5 years of IHBA additions finally compiled
+
+## Upgrading to Akkoma
+
+### From source
+
+```bash
+git remote set-url origin https://akkoma.dev/AkkomaGang/akkoma.git/
+git fetch origin
+git pull -r
+```
+
+Then compile, migrate and restart as usual.
+
+Then if you've done anything fancy to the frontend, you'll want to get the
+updates for that as well. This won't be the same for any two instances,
+so `https://akkoma.dev/AkkomaGang/pleroma-fe` is the repo you need.
+
+### From OTP
+
+```bash
+export FLAVOUR=$(arch="$(uname -m)";if [ "$arch" = "x86_64" ];then arch="amd64";elif [ "$arch" = "armv7l" ];then arch="arm";elif [ "$arch" = "aarch64" ];then arch="arm64";else echo "Unsupported arch: $arch">&2;fi;if getconf GNU_LIBC_VERSION>/dev/null;then libc_postfix="";elif [ "$(ldd 2>&1|head -c 9)" = "musl libc" ];then libc_postfix="-musl";elif [ "$(find /lib/libc.musl*|wc -l)" ];then libc_postfix="-musl";else echo "Unsupported libc">&2;fi;echo "$arch$libc_postfix")
+
+./bin/pleroma_ctl update --zip-url https://akkoma-updates.s3-website.fr-par.scw.cloud/develop/akkoma-$FLAVOUR.zip
+./bin/pleroma_ctl migrate
+```
+
+Then restart. When updating in the future, can just use
+
+```bash
+./bin/pleroma_ctl update --branch develop
+```
