Friendica, a decentralized social networking platform, values user privacy and freedom above all. It allows users to establish their own server for connection and offers seamless integration with other platforms like Twitter, Diaspora, and Mastodon. Serving as a publishing platform for blogs including WordPress and Tumblr, Friendica provides functionalities such as user tagging, direct messaging, and photo album creation. The platform’s development is volunteer-driven and its source code is available on GitHub[1]. It is distinguished for its comprehensive privacy settings, multiple profiles, and distinctive features. Friendica is compatible with clients like Friendiqa, Fedilab, and AndStatus, and is lauded as a stable platform and a viable alternative to centralized social networks.
Friendica (formerly Friendika, originally Mistpark) is a free and open-source software distributed social network. It forms one part of the Fediverse, an interconnected and decentralized network of independently operated servers.
