GoToSocial
Federated social media software.
GoToSocial is a Fediverse server project, written in Golang. It provides an alternative to existing projects such as Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica, PixelFed etc.
One of the key differences between GoToSocial and those other projects is that GoToSocial doesn't include an integrated front-end (ie., a webapp). Instead, like the Matrix.org's Synapse project, it provides only a server implementation and a well-documented API. On this API, developers are free to build any front-end implementation or mobile application that they wish.
Because the server implementation is as generic and flexible/configurable as possible, GoToSocial provides the basis for many different types of social media experience, whether Tumblr-like, Facebook-like, or Twitter-like.
Goals
The first goal of the project is to implement a feature set comparable to Mastodon: server logic, federation logic, and a client API that's a superset of the Mastodon API described here.
Once the client API is implemented, it should allow existing Mastodon apps like Tusky and Whalebird to work with GoToSocial.
After that, custom features will be added that will necessitate expanding the API.
Wishlist
Among other things:
- Reputation-based 'slow' federation.
- Granular post settings.
- Local-only posting.
- Easily-configurable character limit.
- Groups and group posting.
Implementation Status
