Product Information

Description

Bana is a decentralized social networking platform built on the ActivityPub protocol, designed specifically for managing personal networks rather than mass broadcasting. It enables users to create private or semi-private social spaces where they can share updates, media, and messages exclusively with selected connections like family, close friends, or professional circles. Key features include federated identity management, allowing interaction across different ActivityPub-compatible platforms, and granular privacy controls that let users curate content visibility within their network. The platform's architecture supports self-hosting or joining existing instances, giving users flexibility in data ownership and community governance. Ideal for those seeking alternatives to centralized social media, Bana facilitates meaningful digital relationships while maintaining user autonomy through open standards and decentralized infrastructure.
