Adding Custom Search Engine - Self Hosted
Recently I started using my own self hosted search engine - LibreX...
When I went to add it as the default search engine for Firefox on the desktop - I found that the option to add custom search engines gone (replaced with a 'smarter' way??)
Here is the work around I found..
Go to the about:config page
Paste browser.urlbar.update2.engineAliasRefresh into the search area and set the value to True
Now when you go to the Settings page, you should see an Add button to add a custom search engine (like you used too...)

Misskey, Calckey, Pleroma, Mastodon- All perform the same essential function. Microblogging (with minor differences e.g Pleroma has a 5000 word limit per post) Think Twitter.
Pixelfed is an image sharing platform - Think Instagram.
Friendica will give you a similar experience to Facebook (Macroblogging)
None of those platforms have real messaging (Direct messages, but not private or encrypted)

Almost all sites have an RSS feed...
https://rss.com/blog/ as some advice on finding them...
Even a lot of fediverse platforms e.g Mastodon have RSS 👍
