Planetary is a social media app built upon the idea of protocols not platforms. Users and creators own their identities and social relationships. Privacy is respected and creators supported. Abuse and harassment is handled through community governance.
Thanks so much for taking the time to look at what we've been building.
I'd like to direct folks to our launch announcement:

It goes in to more depth about what we're doing and how planetary works.

It's been great watching this progress via early Testflight access through 2020. Well played @rabble...
This platform is so sorely needed. Awesome experience. Thoughtful design and implementation!

Exciting to see scuttlebutt become more approachable! Planetary is doing great work rebuilding the social web to be more about who you listen to, and less about who targets who.
I think there is great potential to combine Planetary's decentralized social infrastructure with Lightning Network Bitcoin payments to build a full social and payments experience without corporate gatekeepers.
This is another really interesting play at a decentralized social network.
With the ethical questions arising around how communities in the US political spectrum are using these products, it’s a joy to see this team talk about openly the Scuttlebutt protocol and allude to their values as a backbone. This kind of transparency and tone is at least a reprieve from that.
