Beta Announcement – People. Privacy. Period.

We are proud to announce signups are now open for the NorthStar Social beta—invites will go out later this Spring!

Our privacy is too precious to leave in the hands of corporations, billionaires, and bad actors. While ATProtocol apps are great for restoring ownership and control for our public data, they do no not support encrypted private data.

NorthStar Social is a decentralized, local-first, end-to-end encrypted social network on the ATProtocol keeping you in control of your private and public data. NorthStar Social offers a complete social network experience for both your public and private interactions. Your private posts, communications, and interactions primarily reside on your device and are only ever shared with your connections. No one—not even a service provider—can access this private data without your consent. Your public posts, communications, and interactions reside in your ATProtocol PDS and are interoperable with the general ATProtocol community (Blacksky, Bluesky, etc). Privacy is built-in.

NorthStar Social is built for people, by people (not corporations 😉)—your feedback is invaluable and necessary to build a platform for all of us. We are excited to get the app into your hands!
