Meta Platforms exploring decentralized social network for text updates - Reuters

In a statement published by the news agency, a Meta spokesperson confirmed earlier speculation around the move, saying it will be an "opportunity" for creators and public figures to share updates about their interests. A decentralized platform is run mostly by volunteer administrators who bring their networks together through a so-called federation of apps. Facebook and Twitter, conversely, are platforms overseen by one centralized figure - the company, in this case. An Indian business news website called Moneycontrol.com first reported that Meta's new content app would support ActivityPub, a decentralized social media platform used by Twitter peer Mastodon and other similar networks. Citing sources, Moneycontrol.com said the app would be Instagram-branded and be accessible via users' Instagram login details.
