Social media does not have to be on a public town square, or manipulate you. Here's @npub1zq8s...k7nh's demo at #FediForum showing off Frequency Social, a federated, privacy-first social networking app.
"The Stakes Are Real: Why the Open Social Web Matters Now." Amazing keynote from @npub1lrqq...pn8w at last week's #FediForum, reminding us all that what we are building here is critical for the world at this moment in time, and also some good advice on how to solve the right problems.
The keynote and demo recordings, as well as session notes, from FediForum October 2025 are now online. Checkout our website , which also has links to our PeerTube and YouTube channels.
Very nice writeup by @npub13870...vefs for The New Stack on what happened at #FediForum this week, and why the Open Social Web (should) matter to #developers. https://thenewstack.io/everything-big-starts-small-building-open-social-web-apps/
It's a wrap for FediForum Day 2, and the entire October 2025 FediForum. We had a blast, and attendees have told us the same.

And to be notified of the next online FediForum: We will publish the meeting notes and the recordings of the keynote and demos as soon as we can.
