https://fedihood.social/about

FediHood is a social network built around the place where you live. You choose a city and the topics you care about, then read what neighbours are saying and join in.

It stays a normal fediverse app. Your posts can reach Mastodon, PixelFed, Misskey and the rest, and posts from those servers reach you too.

Source code: https://git.holos.social/tom79/FediHood

There's only one instance so far: https://fedihood.social/

If new instances are created, they should show up here: https://fedihood.fediverse.observer/list

I don't think an encrypted message feature is necessary for this kind of a web app. If people want to send encrypted messages, they can just switch to a different service for that. Like you get them to know on fedihood, exchange matrix handles or phone numbers or whatever, and then you can use a different service for private communication.

    Less friction is better though. And not everyone knows where else to go for E2E.

    The problem to me would be development burden, but its alreast implemented so...
