Diaspora/Website

Your life is made up of lots of different aspects, involving different people. Why should your online life be any different? With diaspora*’s aspects you can organize your online life as much as you want and share things only with the people you want to.

For example, you might have aspects for your family, for your closest friends, for work colleagues and for a sport or hobby you’re involved in. Your work colleagues don’t need to know about your family reunion, do they? With aspects, they won’t.

Of course, some things are so important that you want to tell the whole world about them. You can easily share something with the whole world by making it public. Using appropriate hashtags means it’ll reach people who are likely to enjoy it.

Features our community loves

Hashtags

Hashtags allow you to flag and follow your interests, and help your posts reach like-minded people. They’re also a great way to meet fun and interesting new people on diaspora*.

Reshare

Why not reshare a post you love with others? diaspora* makes it easy to spread ideas via reshare. Just press the button to share the message.

Mentions

Want to get someone’s attention? Just @mention them! It’s an easy way to alert one of your contacts to something you think they need to know about.

Show your appreciation for something you love by ♥ing it. Because sometimes words just aren’t enough to say what you feel.

Host a community pod

diaspora* depends on its community members to host and run pods which are open to anyone who wants to take part. If you have some server space and a little bit of technical knowledge, we’d love it if you’d set up a pod which is open to registrations. The more pods, the better diaspora* works - be part of the future of the decentralized social web!

Read the %{instructions_link} and set up your own community pod.
