About

Lemmy is a decentralized social link aggregator platform running on independent servers and powered by the open-source Lemmy software.

It utilizes the ActivityPub protocol for federation across the Fediverse, organizes content into distinct communities, supports upvoting and downvoting, and allows users on different servers to communicate.

MeWe is a social networking service that positions itself as a privacy-first, decentralized alternative to mainstream platforms and offers an algorithm-free chronological feed without advertising or behavioral targeting.

It builds its identity layer on the Decentralized Social Networking Protocol and the Frequency blockchain so users own their social graph, hosts over 700,000 interest groups, and provides a blockchain-based digital wallet for direct creator tipping.
