Building FidoNext — a community-powered, decentralized communication network. Inspired by FidoNet, rebuilt for the 2026 internet.

When a state flips a switch, most messengers go dark because their lifeline is someone else’s server. FidoNext refuses that design: no central choke, just peers relaying for peers until the last route closes. Speech should not depend on uptime. #FidoNext #CensorshipResistance

Most “decentralized” tools shove users into sysadmin roles. FidoNext hides the plumbing: NAT punching, relays, MLS, DHT all run under the hood so your experience still feels like a normal chat app—only without the servers. #FidoNext #P2P #HumanFirst #Privacy #OpenSource

In FidoNext, media isn’t a blob on a server—it’s encrypted 512KB chunks with CIDs, scattered and rebuilt with Reed–Solomon across the mesh, then auto-expiring via TTL. Files move like messages: transient, private, serverless. #FidoNext #P2P #Encryption #DistributedSystems

Scaling chat to a billion peers isn’t about bigger servers, it’s about fewer assumptions. FidoNext plans sharded DHT realms, regional PubSubs, and partial-view overlays (HyParView/Cyclon) so the mesh stays local, fast, and borderless at once. #FidoNext #P2P #DistributedSystems

In FidoNext, relays aren’t “servers,” they’re temporary couriers: encrypted buffers with TTLs, multi-hop paths, and offline pickup. They move packets, learn nothing, and disappear on schedule—leaving no fixed inbox to seize. #FidoNext #P2P #RelayMesh #Privacy #Decentralization

Moderation in FidoNext runs where it should: on your device, under the publisher’s rules. Local LLMs, encrypted configs, no server watching your feed and no “global policy” switch to flip. Filters are personal, not imposed. #FidoNext #Privacy #P2P #OpenSource #DigitalRights

Centralized messengers fail for the same reason centralized systems fail: once you control the infrastructure, you control the people. We’re building something different. Decentralized. Encrypted. Unstoppable. Communication that belongs to its users — not to servers.


FidoNext — a community-powered, decentralized communication network. Inspired by FidoNet. Rebuilt for the 2026 Internet. No servers. No corporate control.
