Akkoma's Features:

Write what you have in mind!


You can post, publish photos, videos or music. With Akkoma, you're not restricted to 150 characters! Express yourself and let others know about you.

Federation


With over 50 million users spread across thousands of servers operated by independent administrators, Fediverse is the biggest decentralized, open alternative to commercial corporate offerings. It allows for flexibility and freedom on multiple levels.

Freedom of speech


Your fate is not determined by a single entity/owner of the network as each server is free to implement their own set of moderation rules or lack of. This on one hand could lead to excessive hate speech or abuse, or on the other end moderation falling into censorship. But unlike commercial, centralized offerings you have a choice to use a server that best suits you.

Environmental impact


While large centralized platforms depend on giant datacenters that need enormous amount of energy to operate, with federated networks such as Fediverse, the energy consumption is more democratized and decentralized. Rather than maintaining giant datacenters, servers are smaller and self-contained. This greatly reduces the power needs for such network to operate.

From people to people


Since the profit is not the motor behind the development, people working on various services and apps within Fediverse Realm create software they want to use in the first place. No algorithms pushing you content platform owners want to you to see, no addictive features to keep you glued to the screen if you don't want to, no micro transactions. Just software created by people you can easily reach to give feedback, request feature or simply join in collaborative effort to make your favorite app even better!

Interoperability


Although our server (Akkoma) is essentially a microblogging platform, ActivityPub (Or Fediverse) offers range of services. From microblogging like Akkoma or Mastodon, through social network similar to Facebook such as Friendica or Hubzilla, image posting service like PixelFed or Youtube like platform called PeerTube. You can interact with all of those natively no matter which platform you are using (imagine being able to like or comment on your friend's post on Instagram using your Twitter account).
