So I've figured out that Mastodon, Misskey, and Pleroma are three similar but different microblogging services. I also know that Glitch, Hometown, Iceshrimp, Firefish, Soapbox/Rebased, Akkona et al. are popular forks of these.

But what are the differences? Why use one over the other?

Is there a full writeup? I have seen a few guides that compare some of them, but most are old and none of them show the full picture.

If not, could someone smart write one please?
