The web page you're reading right now is served by an instance of GoToSocial,
|
|
a federated, distributed, open-source microblogging software which connects
|
|
to other instances across a network known as the "fediverse".
|
|
</p>
|
|
<h4 id="what-is-an-instance">What is an "instance"?</h4>
|
|
<p>
|
|
"Instance" is a term commonly used for one node in the fediverse. Each instance
|
|
has its own web address, user(s), culture, rules, and settings. Instances exchange
|
|
data by "talking" to each other over the internet using a protocol called ActivityPub.

<p>
|
|
Each instance can, in theory, talk to each other instance, allowing people to talk
|
|
to one another across a decentralized network that has no single authority in charge.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There are thousands of fediverse instances, connecting millions of people together.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<h4 id="how-do-i-join-the-fediverse">How do I join the fediverse?</h4>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You can join the fediverse by running your own instance of an ActivityPub software,
|
|
or by finding an existing instance that aligns with your values and expectations,
|
|
and registering an account.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
To help you find an instance that suits you, you can try one of the following tools:
