Fediverse is a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe".

I've been exploring various Fediverse platforms and noticed we have alternatives for many popular social media sites:

  • Friendica (Facebook-like)
  • Pixelfed (Instagram-like)
  • Lemmy (Reddit-like)
  • Mastodon (Twitter-like)
  • etc.

But I'm curious: Is there a Fediverse equivalent to the classic MySpace, or its modern revival, Spacehey?

I'm talking about a platform that offers:

  • Highly customizable profiles
  • A focus on personal expression through layout and design
  • Music integration
  • The nostalgic feel of early 2000s social networking
  • etc.

Has anyone come across a project like this in the Fediverse? Or do you think there's potential for developing such a platform?

Alternatively, if that's too much work/hassle, has anyone ever considered reaching out to the SpaceHey team about the possibility of them potentially federating their platform? It could be an interesting addition to the Fediverse ecosystem.

There's been some talk about Spacehey Federation.

I'd love to hear your thoughts, experiences, or any leads on this topic.

Best of all so far would be Neocities it offers up to 1gb space of hosting which is enough for old school website. They are also open source and they have their own community. You can literally expend hours surfing around tons of super intersting, amazing looking old web vibe sites. Just give it a try!
