FediOnFire, a Fediverse project similar to Firesky, which offers an IRC-like view of the global firehose, has shut down after a misunderstanding led to community backlash.

If it’s what it sounds like, I understand it and would want it shut down too.

It was literally an alternative UI for the https://mastodon.social/public feed

FediOnFire was a simple, public-facing project designed to showcase a firehose of public statuses across the network.

For… showing public comments on a live feed? How nefarious. /s
