Newebe, a social network where all users are independent
1 like778 views
Newebe is a distributed social network that allows users to publish messages, pictures, and files independently without involving third parties while maintaining the benefits of centralization like a friendly UI and interoperable data. It uses an asynchronous Python server with a document database and single-page application frontend. The network aims to be independent, interoperable, easy to use, and protect user privacy.
