About

Skept

Features
Read full description

The “official” Skept app for connecting to the Skept engine. Skept is an old-school social hive engine, inspired by how online communities and social media used to feel. The engine originally started out as DiodeMatrix Workspace in 2018, a platform used to develop software and experiments. In 2021, it was turned into a hobby-project “fork”, as they call it, so the system wouldn’t get lost and could continue as a community project.
