Hi

+

I'm a programmer from Hungary. My aim is to self-host all of my socials.

+

And self-host yours too! Yay!

+

The pitch

+

An independently owned collection of social media, ran by artists, connected to the rest of the world.

+

A loose collaboration with cross-promotion.

+

Details

+

+ There are a lot of interconnected social apps, like Mastodon, Threads (anytime now), PeerTube, Pixelfed etc. + Contrary to the 'big' social media sites like YouTube, Discord, Twitter, you are not locked in to any one of these. + There are no ads, no obscure feed algorithms, no AI using your data. +

+

I truly believe that this will be the future of social media because everything works well with each other, no lock-in.

+

Reach

+

Of course, one of the main reasons everyone is stuck with the big ones is because everyone else uses those.

+

+ There are currently around 900 000 active users on the (Twitter-like) Mastodon network. + Can't promise all those people to follow you of course, but I think there's some potential here. + In my experience people are a lot more engaged too (myself included) and more interesting discussions take place. +

+

My not so secret intention is also to get your community to join as well.

+

+ I should probably note that there have been instances of people being driven out of Mastodon. + The thing is, it's all a big network. There will be all kinds of people. You can't control the entire internet. +

+

+ What you can control however, is what reaches you. And as the owner of the platform there is a lot you can do. +

+

I ended up following a lot of members of the LGBTQ+ community for example. And lots of techy people of course.
