Public Interest Social Networks
Bonfire is built by communities, for communities. Rooted in autonomy, mutual care, and collective power. Co-create your tools, reclaim your data, and resist manipulation by shaping your own federated digital spaces.

🌊 Exciting news! Crowdinblue - a mission-led initiative bridging water solutions with funding - has chosen #Bonfire to build their federated community space!

Are you a community, organization or project needing custom features while staying connected to the open web?
Our #Mosaic initiative makes this possible: build your specific tools (open knowledge management, coordination, governance, resource sharing, ...), or integrate your existing tools in your digital space while federating with the wider ecosystem.
Learn how at https://bonfirenetworks.org/mosaic
Your needs, your tools, your community, all connected. 🧩

@saper Yes, very feasible. Bonfire’s architecture is designed to extend ActivityPub’s activity vocabulary and federation patterns to support diverse type of interactions and data beyond microblogging ones

We're experimenting with federated geosocial features in Bonfire, free from surveillance capitalism.
Check into your local community garden. Add location to mutual aid requests. Find tools nearby.
Imagine your local fablab or community center sharing check-ins, calendars, events, opening hours - all federated. A living hub for what's happening there.

This unlocks new possibilities for local organizing, let's explore together 🔥

@evanprodromou Here's how check-in activities look in Bonfire (not released yet)!
Happy to test check-out and travel activities too if you have examples to share.
We're tracking mockups and implementation progress here: https://github.com/bonfire-networks/bonfire-app/issues/1444
