Postopia is a social network built around communities. Every community is a real place β a forum with its own moderation, its own feed, its own character and its own discussions. Join the ones you care about, or start one. What you post there also reaches the people who follow you, so you are never choosing between a group and an audience. The home feed is reverse-chronological by default: posts from the people and communities you follow, in the order they were written. Where a surface does rank, it tells you why you are seeing something. WHAT YOU CAN DO - Post text, photos, video, polls and long-form Broadcasts - Spark, Echo and Quote the posts worth passing on - Share short vertical Vibes that expire, or pin one that does not - Send Notes: direct messages that are end-to-end encrypted - Chat one to one or in groups, and pass posts and Vibes into the conversation - Read the news from sources you choose, and favorite the ones you come back to - Listen to Postopia Music: tracks and videos from independent artists - Follow people, communities and the topics that interest you BUILT WITH LIMITS - No ads and no third-party trackers. What you do here is not sold or shared. - Verification is free. It describes who someone is and cannot be purchased. - Report, block and mute on every surface, with a 24-hour takedown commitment. - No infinite algorithmic scroll on the main feed. Postopia is for people 17 and over, and 18 where local rules require it.
