About Pleroma

Pleroma is an ActivityPub social networking server written in Elixir, compatible with Mastodon's API so existing clients work, and light enough to run on a small virtual machine or a Raspberry Pi. It federates with Mastodon, Misskey, Pixelfed and the rest of the network.

Strengths

  • Runs comfortably on hardware far smaller than Mastodon needs
  • Mastodon-compatible API, so existing apps work

Limitations

  • Smaller contributor base and slower release cadence
  • Moderation tooling is less developed than Mastodon's
