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.

“Yes, the Fediverse is sometimes clunky, nerdy, uncomfortable. But it belongs to us. It’s not over-regulated, not driven by capital, not buggered up by algorithms. It’s what social media once aspired to be: A network of people, not brands.“ Via @hildabast
Hey @mayel@bonfire.cafe . i followed you and @Bonfire@bonfire.cafe but sitting at Requested. I've seen this randomly. I know some folks need to approve follows. Didn't know if this was the case or there's a bug.

It's nearly 2026 so, what better way to look ahead than a blog post 👀

It worked, thanks 🙏
Happy holidays, fediverse!
I got you a megathrust earthquake, soil liquefaction, spine-tingling papers about the way our networks confound knowledge, and a PDF in a pear tree. It's my wrap on a year of trying to make sense of how we make sense of what's happening to us.
Long-form content in Bonfire: Part 1
@Bonfire Quick question. Seeing the social flavor hit 1.0 I was wondering if I were to deploy that flavor once other flavors become stable could I add them to the existing instance without the need to reinstall with fresh database?
@muppeth@fe.disroot.org yes, you can easly switch from one flavour to another
⭐️ @Bonfire is a wonderful initiative for friendly community building. The project is focused on making things easy for people to create meaningful spaces to organize. It has good federation support, so people can participate from across the different networks.
They've launched a campaign to help launch it to a wider audience: https://www.indiegogo.com/en/projects/bonfire/community
I like the install party level, looking forward to getting an instance running with others! #Bonfire #Crowdfunding #Fediverse #IndieWeb #OSS
Last week @Bonfire launched their first release and a fundraiser for their exciting roadmap 🔥
A part of that roadmap includes teaming up with us to bring Bridgy Fed and Bounce to Bonfire users!
