Damus
The social network you control — free, open, and decentralized.
Damus is a decentralized social networking app built on the Nostr protocol, available on iOS, Android, and desktop. It offers a censorship-resistant platform with no ads, no algorithmic manipulation, and no personal information required to sign up. Users can also send and receive Bitcoin tips via the Lightning Network.
Damus uses the Nostr open protocol with cryptographic key pairs to give users full control of their identity and data without requiring a central authority.
