I do not know now, but once Misskey could not delete personal information once registered. The author affirmed the specification. There are privacy concerns.

What would misskey give us over more popular alternatives like mastodon?

freddy-m commented 3 years ago

From what I can see, this doesn't offer anything that mastodon does not. I'm in favour of closing this @privacytools/editorial

Also it has issues with localization, it's written by chinese devs I think, and most infos on the website and I guess code comments are in chinese (lots of commits are in chinese). I suspect this network may be more popular than mastodon with the chinese community.

Misskey is created by Japanese speakers. This is evident from the website and source code. Please don't give sloppy opinions without proper scrutiny.

If this is the case, Misskey is in violation of the GDPR.

Misskeyi18n is a mess. In a directory called kab, which is reminiscent of the Kabyle language, there is a file written in Japanese. https://github.com/misskey-dev/misskey/tree/develop/src/docs/kab-KAB
