Pleroma
Lightweight federated microblogging server for the fediverse
Upvote
Pleroma is microblogging server software that can federate, meaning exchange messages, with other servers that support ActivityPub. It works with servers such as Mastodon, Misskey, Friendica, GNU social, Hubzilla, PeerTube and Pixelfed.
Highlights
- Written in Elixir and uses PostgreSQL for storage
- Supports the Mastodon client API with Pleroma extensions, so many existing mobile and desktop clients work
- Recommended install is an OTP release on Linux (glibc or musl, x86 or ARM), or from source if you want to edit the code
It is free software under the AGPL. It is a popular choice for small self-hosted social instances because it is lighter than many alternatives.
