Planetary is all about communities. Share what you love with likeminded people and make the network feel more like you.
Create and develop new communities with your own set of rules. Each one works as an independent social network.
Think of it as the Mozilla Firefox of social networks. A tool that allows you to discover and interact with hundreds of social networks out there in the decentralized web.
The world’s first mainstream client for a truly distributed social network that doesn't keep your data in the cloud.
Planetary is building a social media commons. That includes the right of our users to see, modify, and redistribute the application and its underlying code.
We’re working together to change the world and we want you to join us.
Open Source, Open Society. Look under the hood at how planetary is built and roll up your sleeves add to the app yourself.
Get in touch with the planetary team and fellow users of the platform on discord. We answer questions and host discussions about the app, community, and protocol.
No software is perfect, we encourage you to report bugs and also behavior of users which is in violation of our terms of service.
Planetary is about restructuring how social software works, from the bottom up. That’s a new way of thinking and we’ve written a bunch about what that means.
Planetary runs over the Secure Scuttlebutt network. SSB is an open platform, and there are already apps for Android, Firefox and most operative systems.
We're working hard to smooth out the initial experience on Planetary but if you want to join the community over another Platform, here are some of the best options:
You have something to say and you’d like to build community without building someone else’s brand. We’re here for creators and artists, makers and hackers.
Your posts belong to you. You choose how and when to share them. There are no servers keeping your data.
There’s no one big database where your posts are stored. You can connect to our relay servers or make your own.
We’re funded by providing services you actually want to pay for, not by selling your data or attention.
Your posts belong to you. You choose how and when to share them.
