   Best open-source software distributed social network

   Best Thing is Friendica is a free and open-source software distributed social network. It forms one part of the Fediverse, an interconnected and decentralized network of independently operated servers

• Decentralized media Made easy

  When I click on https://synapsemedia.io/ I get redirected to a link like https://ipfs.io/ipns/synapsemedia.io (to use ipfs.io instead of my local node). Source: about 1 year ago

• 4EVERLAND’s IPFS Pinning Service: 4EVER Pin

  You may already be aware that the Interplanetary File System or IPFS is a distributed storage network where computers from all over the world form nodes to share data. Source: about 1 year ago

• How to host an encrypted page

  In case of you don't trust them, it gets harder. Especially if you need to have it hosted without any trace to yourself. I'd probably pay a service to store my data on ipfs. You can pay with crypto. But I'm this case there's the question, how will you be able to access it. My thought would be to have a [tails][tails] USB with the necessary software.

• Not sure if I this is safe to click so I can download this book. Are you supposed to just click the “GET” button?

  I never click GET button, don't even know what it does tbh XD Those four buttons are for choosing which IPFS gateway you want to use. By default I use ipfs.io, if ipfs.io is down then I click the Cloudflare one. General rule is that you pick one gateway if it does not work then another one and so on. Source: over 1 year ago

• Facebook Groups alternatives?

  You might want to look into some of the Facebook-like open-source social networking programs like Friendica, Hubzilla, Libervia, or GNU Social. Source: 5 months ago

• We need a Facebook groups style decentralized alternative. Does one exist?

  I think that Friendi.ca is the fediverse equivalent of FB, in the same way that Mastodon is to twitter. https://friendi.ca. Source: 10 months ago

• Looking for a “news aggregater”.

  In addition to what has been said, you can also use Friendica, another great decentralized alternative (server list). It supports RSS, along with being a regular social network. Source: 10 months ago

• 📣 Apollo will close down on June 30th. Reddit’s recent decisions and actions have unfortunately made it impossible for Apollo to continue. Thank you so, so much for all the support over the years. ❤️

  Facebook being whatever it is would be friendi.ca. Source: 11 months ago

• Open Source Social Network php based social networking software

  Given the similarity to FB, what's the advantage over Friendica or Hubzilla? Both support federation with other servers and can be run as a closed community too. Source: 12 months ago
