What is Manyverse?

A social network without the bad stuff, built on the peer-to-peer SSB protocol. It's free and open source, and available for desktop and mobile.

Familiar, yet radically new

Manyverse is a social networking app with features you would expect: posts, likes, profiles, private messages, etc. But it's not running in the cloud owned by a company, instead, your friends' posts and all your social data live entirely in your phone. This way, even when you're offline, you can scroll, read anything, and even write posts and like content! When your phone is back online, it syncs the latest updates directly with your friends' phones, through a shared local Wi-Fi or on the internet.

We're building this free and open source project as a community effort because we believe in non-commercial, neutral, and fair mobile communication for everyone.

(Psst! If you landed here from that Forbes article, we want to clarify we are NOT "designed for free-speech purists". What a gross misrepresentation! Manyverse is pluralist in values, designed for trust-driven communities without gatekeepers.)
