@Worst @edges both have their pros and cons, especially that Akkoma considering itself to be separate from Pleroma while also inheriting some of it's bugs and annoyances that got fixed in upstream Pleroma. But also Pleroma still has some questionable features like Shoutbox, Chats that only supported by Pleroma, and don't have bubble timeline (I don't use it personally but I get the generic appealing).

Try both, I can give you an invite on my instnaces if you want.
