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.
( Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, Linux)
Forgot this existed, tested it 5 years ago or so. Latest release is from 2019.
AFAIK every message propagates through the entire network, not knowing its destination, but only the rigth recipient can decrypt it. As a consequence of the scuttlebutt protocol.
That didnt seem scalable to me …
The download link to Fdroid says 404 page not found, lol.
Well. you can download the .apk file, this works. The app is still in beta, it works, but issues like this with the store may ocurre.
Is this like… real? Seems like it’s coming out of left field.
I don’t know, probably. Well, anyway P2P is always the best solution to avoid that big corporations are breathing in your neck.
