diaspora* is based on three key philosophies:
-
Decentralization
-
Instead of everyone’s data being held on huge central servers owned by a large organization, diaspora* exists on independently run servers (“pods”) all over the world. You choose which pod to register with, and you can then connect seamlessly with the diaspora* community worldwide.
-
Freedom
-
You can be whoever you want to be in diaspora*. Unlike some networks, you don’t have to use your real identity. You can interact with people in whatever way you choose. The only limit is your imagination. diaspora* is also Free Software, giving you liberty over how you use it.
-
Privacy
-
In diaspora* you own your data. You don’t sign over rights to a corporation or other interest who could use it. In addition, you choose who sees what you share, using Aspects. With diaspora*, your friends, your habits, and your content is your business ... not ours!

Want to get started?
-
It’s as easy as 1, 2, 3 ...
-
1. Choose a pod
-
Find a pod that suits you. You might prefer a smaller pod, one which allows cross-posting to external services (such as Twitter), one based near you, or one based in a country that you know has good data security policies... The choice is yours! You can even %{host_yourself_link} if you have some sysadmin skills.
-
2. Sign up
-
Once you’ve decided which pod is right for you, based on the ratings and information at %{poduptime} and maybe recommendations from people you trust, sign up there and create a profile with as much or as little personal information as you like. You are in control about how much you share.
-
3. Join the conversation!
-
Start following some #tags related to your interests: it could be
<span class="click">#music</span>,<span class="click">#photography</span>,<span class="click">#privacy</span>or<span class="click">#linux</span>- whatever you’re into. Share a public message with the<span class="click">#newhere</span>tag to introduce yourself, and away you go. You’re now part of the vibrant diaspora* community. -
