Standom is a community app for stans. Not casual fans. The people who stream the album on loop, know every era, and need somewhere to talk about it with others who get it. Every fandom gets its own space here, run the way that fandom actually works. Follow standoms for the artists, shows, games, and creators you care about, and find the people who care just as much. Standom works differently from other apps: Two feeds, two ways to post. The timed feed is for the moment. Posts there live for 72 hours, then they're gone, so there's no pressure to be perfect. The permanent feed is for the posts worth keeping. The bump puts you in control. One tap sends any post straight to the top of the feed. Not a like that vanishes into a counter, not a vote lost under an algorithm. You decide what your community sees next. Real communities, not a generic feed. Standoms are built around the fandoms themselves, so the culture, the conversations, and the people all feel like they belong together. Standom is new and growing. If you have ever felt like the internet stopped being a place for the people who care the most, come see what this is.
Agora Social Network

Agora is a social network built for real communities. Friends, groups, and the wider fediverse, all in one feed. FEED, YOUR WAY Your main feed is chronological by default. Always your call, never an algorithm's. Want a feed that learns what you love instead? Build a custom feed with Smart Ranking, or use the Feed Builder to include or exclude specific accounts entirely. FRIENDS, GROUPS & PAGES Connect with friends, join groups, and follow Pages for the bands, businesses, and creators you care about — their posts show up right in your feed. Tag a group anywhere with +group-name. CONNECT BEYOND AGORA Every Agora account is also a real Bluesky account. No bridge, no separate signup. Follow any Bluesky account natively, see who follows you back, and fold them into Friend Lists alongside your Agora friends. Agora also speaks ActivityPub, so your public posts are discoverable and followable from Mastodon and other fediverse apps, with replies flowing both ways. Quote posts, custom emoji, and read-only poll rendering keep the fediverse side feeling native, not bolted on. Connections, Friend Lists, and search all work across every network at once. Agora, Fediverse, and Bluesky, in one place. SHARE MORE Post up to 10 photos or a 2-minute video at a time. Comment on any post right from your feed — no tap required. Add your own content warning when sharing someone else's post, independent of the original. BUILT FOR EXPLORING Not signed in yet? Browse a public Explore feed as a guest. Signed in? Switch to a feed of just your Friend Lists whenever you want a quieter timeline. PRIVACY & CONTROL Block anyone, opt individual posts or your whole account out of the Fediverse/Bluesky bridge, and adjust text size app-wide for easier reading. FOR INSTANCE ADMINS Run your own Agora instance? Manage it from your phone — an overview dashboard, federation peers and relays, page and media moderation, and blocked users, domains, and Bluesky DIDs, all built into the app.
