About

Colibri Social

Features
Read full description

Colibri is a next-generation social chat app, built on the AT Protocol (also called ATproto). You sign in with your existing Atmosphere identity, and your messages, images, and identity stay in your own PDS (Personal Data Server). You own them, and they travel with you across the network instead of being locked inside our servers. Communities work the same way: each one is its own repository on the network, so a community’s data isn’t trapped in any single app either. Chat with friends, get on voice and video calls, and let your community spread its wings.
