   Hey everyone! I wanted to share a little bit about why I’m building @frequency and what we’re working on.

   First, we’re a very small team of two—me as a full-time developer and a part-time designer moving toward full-time.

   We strongly oppose the use of addictive, manipulative algorithms & design patterns used by big platforms.  Rather than replicating familiar interfaces, we’re aiming to build a more intentional, mindful way of interacting with social media.

     My goal is to create a private, personal space for sharing photos and videos with friends and family while still offering integration with the wider federated network.

     To that end, we've built frequency as a custom, Mastodon-based server with a uniquely designed native app. It focuses on private posts instead of public ones. The most exciting features are being built as we speak, but we’ll have something to share with you very soon!
