Wouldn’t you rather have a social network that respected your privacy, resisted abuse and harassment, rewarded content creators and was open by default? We would too, that’s why we’re building the world’s first mainstream client for a truly distributed social network.
Your posts belong to you. You choose how and when to share them, and can move to another app at any time
You only see posts from your friends and their friends, meaning it’s much harder for people to abuse or harass
We’re funded by providing services you actually want to pay for, not by selling your data or attention
We don’t collect loads of data on what you do. And there’s no central database to mine for data to sell
Your private posts can only be seen by you and the people you send them to. Not even we can see them!
Planetary only downloads content from your friends and their friends - it’s impossible for people to spam you
In the wilderness? At a festival? Download posts and send yours out through peer to peer connections
There’s no one big database where your posts are stored. You can connect to our relay servers or make your own
Like email or the web, Planetary is built on an open protocol that no one company can own
Don’t like Planetary? Pick up and take your identity, posts, and friends to another compatible app
Send money securely to friends and family or receive payments or donations for your work
Coming late 2020
Keep some posts back for paid subscribers. And you can choose precisely how much you want to charge
Coming late 2020
No one company should own the Internet’s public spaces, which is why we’re working with—and contributing back to—the open source Scuttlebutt project. Their core technologies let us recreate a social network experience, but in an open decentralized way that no one organisation can dominate.
