Hello #Fediverse! 👋
I’m currently working on a new project: cupertino.social - a future home for the Apple community here on the decentralized web.
I’m building this because I believe we need a space that combines the elegance of the Apple ecosystem with the ethical soul of the Fediverse. A place for those who love the "Unix heart" of their devices and value privacy as a fundamental right.
We are currently "under construction," fine-tuning the infrastructure (strictly European-hosted and independent!) to ensure a smooth, clean, and respectful experience.
Stay tuned for the official launch post soon. I can’t wait to share this journey with you all.

What I’d like to create is a community of people who value civil exchange, but without the fanboysm. If Apple does something we don't like, we need to be free to say so and discuss it. If they do something we like, great!
That way - who knows? - maybe we can bring people over to the Fediverse who are currently stuck on toxic social platforms simply because they don't want to miss out on news, info, or conversations with other enthusiasts. After all, the Fediverse is already home to brilliant minds like Lisa Melton - @lisamelton and Jen Simmons - @jensimmons - people who share our passion for Apple just as much as they value the freedom of a decentralized web.
I’ll be opening the doors to this instance very soon.
I can't do this alone; I can only do it with the help of all the wonderful people populating the Fediverse who want to shake off algorithmic hate and build something beautiful.
Something human.
