Problem: Feature comparison should be with Hometown first

[weex]

When I posted the current feature comparison, I received this response:

It's not informative to hear that you're ahead of mastodon, what would be useful to know is whether you're ahead of the other big fork.

When people find Ecko, they're probably more likely to be looking for what's next after vanilla Mastodon and in that scenario they'd probably be comparing between the alternatives like Hometown and come to think of it, Glitch-soc.

I would say, given the dominant position of Mastodon, at least for now, that the comparison should be to Mastodon first. It is likely to become quite complicated to compare full feature sets of every fork!

However, the comparison should be complete, and include Mastodon features that aren't in Ecko, and maybe an indication of features from Mastodon where decisions have been made specifically not to include them.

There's no denying that feature comparisons are attempts to persuade and as such tend to be biased. They also lose utility with length.

In any case, we should keep this issue focused on whether it is a problem that we don't compare to Hometown and other forks. Feel free to create separate issues for the other things you mention.
