Decentralized Social Networks

Decentralized Social Networks are alternatives to mainstream social media platforms like Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and Reddit, which run on different independent servers rather than on a centralized server owned by a centralized governing body that collects and benefits from your data. These platforms are open source and use peer-to-peer (P2P) technology, meaning that all interactions are direct between the users, without intermediation by a third party.
