Societal is what’s happening in the world and what people are talking about right now and is part of a federated network. That means there is no one single entity that is in complete control. The basic idea is you join one instance Societal and you can subscribe to people on your instance and to people in other instances. This develops into a large network of different communities all linked together into a huge distributed network of social connections which gives you a lot of freedom over your data.
Follow friends and discover new ones. Publish anything you want: links, pictures, text, video. All on a platform that is community-owned and ad-free.
Everyone is welcome as long as you follow our guidelines.
