Fediverse community platform Bonfire launches, together with a crowdfunding campaign. Mastodon now officially quote posts, and a fediverse client for the Media Liberation Day campaign.
Bonfire social seems cool as fuck, but I wish I understood exactly what it is a little better-
Am I understanding right that its more fediverse building tools for folks who run instances? Or is it a platform like lemmy, mastodon, piefed? Both? Something else entirely?
It feels hard to pin down what it actually is 😅
It seems like it’s a platform. The roadmap includes things like groups, events, encryption, protocol bridges, and whole bunch of other stuff. Per their indie gogo campaign: “Bonfire is open, community-first social infrastructure. A digital commons where people gather, co-create, and care together.” They also have an app available currently, which is what this article is about.
