Your Data.
Your Algorithm.
Your Social media.
An experimental research project by a small team exploring digital agency. Experience a social protocol where the algorithm is transparent, private, and entirely under your control.
What is Deltaverse?
Deltaverse is an experimental social research project run by a small team who believe the web can be better. It's not a platform owned by a corporation; it's a protocol designed to prove that you can have a modern social experience without secret, profit-driven algorithms.
This isn't a polished, VC-backed product. It's an attempt to build a simple, transparent lens for the internet. Whether you're a developer or just someone tired of the status quo, you can help shape how we think about digital agency. One domain at a time.
The Goal? To build a sustainable, open foundation for social connection—where the code is simple, the logic is clear, and the impact is global.
Why Deltaverse?
Standing on the shoulders of giants, building something simpler.
We're inspired by groundbreaking protocols like ActivityPub (Mastodon) and AT Protocol (Bluesky). These projects proved that decentralized social media is possible and paved the way for what comes next.
🎯 Radically Simple
No technical degree required. We've removed the complexity of "decentralized" tech, giving you a smooth, familiar experience that focuses on what social media should be about: connection and conversation.
🔄 Total Sovereignty
You aren't just a user; you're the owner. Choose where your digital life lives, and take your relationships with you if you ever decide to move. You own your identity, period.
⚡ Open by Design
Our platform is built on open standards, not proprietary locks. This means faster innovation, better tools, and a community that works together to build a better digital world for everyone.
Our Philosophy
We believe the best technology meets you where you are. Start with a simple, hosted solution and grow into self-hosting when you're ready. Or stay simple forever. Your journey, your choice.
The Architecture of Freedom
Simple, transparent building blocks that put you in control.
profile.json
Your digital identity, stored as a simple JSON file. It can host your data directly or delegate to another link, ensuring your handle stays yours forever.
Why it matters: Domain-based identity means you own your presence. No company can take it away or lock you out.
feed.json
A rolling window of your latest 100 posts. Older content is automatically moved to static archives, making your entire history predictable and easy to mirror.
Why it matters: Your content is portable and persistent. No proprietary APIs, just predictable JSON chunks that anyone can read.
Algorithms
Open-source "recipes" for your feed. Instead of a secret, unpredictable black box, our algorithms are transparent scripts that you can audit, customize, or swap at any time.
Why it matters: You are the editor-in-chief. No hidden manipulation or profit-driven bias—just the content you actually want to see.
Built on Transparency
Deltaverse is built on open standards that ensure your freedom is hard-coded into the system. Our platform uses standard web technologies combined with transparent logic so you never have to wonder "why" something is happening. It's high-tech, made simple.
Own Your Voice. Control Your Feed.
Deltaverse puts you back in the driver's seat. No hidden algorithms, no data harvesting, no corporate overlords deciding what you see.
No More Black Boxes
Ever wonder why you're seeing a post? On Deltaverse, the rules are transparent. You can see the logic behind your feed and adjust it to your liking. No hidden manipulation.
Private Sovereignty
Full control doesn't mean zero privacy. Your data stays under your control, ensuring that your digital sovereignty never comes at the cost of your personal security.
Custom Freedom
Experience social media your way. From the way you discover new content to the way you interact with friends, everything is customizable. Your feed, your rules, your freedom.
Simple. Powerful. Free.
Choose Your Home
Join our managed hosting plan for a seamless, worry-free experience, or host your own instance if you prefer total independence. One user per instance, one domain per soul.

a corporate middleman.
