Ditch Big Tech. Decentralized social media puts the power in the hands of the people.
The Fediverse puts the power of social media in the hands of the people by decentralizing communication platforms. Rather than one company that controls it all, the Fedverse consists of thousands of completely independent "servers," each able to speak to the others.
Decentralized networks are resilient to censorship. If one platform "cancels" you, you can simply pick up and move to another server. If one server goes down, the rest remain.
All Fediverse servers are completely free and open source software, which means that anyone can build their own community.
There are thousands of "servers" on the Fediverse. Each is totally unique with their own rules, themes, and even features. Most servers federate with most others. Choose a community that is right for you, and move at any time.
Whether you choose a "free speech" server or a more moderated one, you can rest assured that corporations can't control and censor you on the Fediverse.
Browse a small sample of Fediverse servers that are welcoming to newcomers below.
Nerdy, funny, and politically incorrect, Poast is the most active instance on the Fediverse.
Spinster is a server aimed at women, and is especially popular among gender-critical feminists. The site is lightly moderated, and does not allow any pornography or hate speech.
This is a loosely moderated server for people looking for a fun and light-hearted, irreverant, and meme-filled internet experience.
As the name implies, this is a free speech server where anything goes, so long as it's legal in the United States.
