I'm working on Mastodon, a free, open-source social network server based on the open web protocol ActivityPub. The social focus of the project is a viable decentralized alternative to commercial social media silos that returns the control of the content distribution channels to the people. The technical focus of the project is a good user interface, a clean REST API for 3rd party apps and robust anti-abuse tools.

The entire network is like an unlimited number of different Twitter websites, users of which can follow each other and interact regardless of which Twitter website exactly they are on. This has obvious benefits as there is no single company that has a monopoly.

The project can be followed on GitHub. A live version of Mastodon is also running on mastodon.social, which currently houses more than 500,000 users, and mastodon.online, which currently houses 3,000 users. Your sponsorship will help pay for the development of the project and the hosting of those servers, as well as development and maintenance of surrounding infrastructure like the joinmastodon.org homepage and similar.
