I built a social media platform called Igloo - https://igloosocial.com
I wanted a platform where I could share like on Instagram, but with restricted people that I can change as I wish so not all my followers have to see all of my content.
Been a great learning experience, the first time I built a proper app and a backend of this size all by myself. Don't care if anyone else uses this, I had fun along the way.
Hey HN! I built Igloo - A private social media platform to share better with my friends and family. I wanted a social media platform that would give me complete control over whom I want to share with, down to a control over who sees a single post. I also needed it to be something anyone with 0 technical skills can download and start using, something that Mastodon and others could not provide.
FAQ :
Is it open source? Not yet, I want to try making a business out of this, and if that fails I'll open source it
How do I support it? It's free to start, subscription to upgrade for more features
How do I trust it? Honestly, there's no reason you should. That said, the terms and conditions are clear that I don't track, there are no ads, and I don't have any plans of adding any cause I do believe in the subscription model.
Is there a web version? Still working on it, mobile only for now
