README.md
Soapbox is customizable open-source software that puts the power of social media in the hands of the people. Feature-rich and hyper-focused on providing a user experience to rival Big Tech, Soapbox is already home to some of the biggest alternative social platforms.
On The Fediverse
You may have heard of Mastodon. Soapbox builds upon what Mastodon made great to make something even better.
You can run Mastodon+Soapbox, Rebased+Soapbox, and more.
Soapbox is the frontend (what users see) while Mastodon is the backend (data, APIs). You can mix-and-match in the Fediverse ecosystem.
💡 If you're starting a new server, we highly recommend Rebased+Soapbox. Rebased is our custom-built backend just for Soapbox, providing important new features such as quote posting and chats.
Try It Out
Want to give Soapbox a shot? Here are some suggested servers:
- gleasonator.com - operated by the lead developer of Soapbox
- social.teci.world - free speech server run by a Soapbox contributor
- spinster.xyz - one of the largest feminist communities on the internet
- poa.st - the largest Soapbox server on the network
Want to use Soapbox against any existing Mastodon/Pleroma server? Try:
- fe.soapbox.pub - enter your server's domain name to use Soapbox on any server!
🚀 Starting Your Own Server
Starting your own server is one of the best ways to have freedom online! We recommend installing Rebased+Soapbox.
See here for a detailed setup guide: Installing Rebased+Soapbox
Adding Soapbox to an Existing Server
Already have a server? No problem — it is still possible to use Soapbox.
💡 If using Pleroma, it's recommended to upgrade it to Rebased. This comes with better support and many new features, helping you get the most out of Soapbox.
Developing Soapbox
tl;dr — git clone, yarn, and yarn dev.

Project Philosophy
Soapbox was born out of the need to build independent platforms with a unique identity and brand.
This is in contrast to Mastodon's idea, where all servers are called "Mastodon" and use the Mastodon colors and logo. Users won't see the word "Soapbox" throughout the UI, they'll see the name of your website and your logo. To facilitate this, Soapbox has a robust customization UI and integrated moderation tools. Large servers are a priority.
One disadvantage of this approach is that it does not help the software spread. Some of the biggest servers on the network and running Soapbox and people don't even know it!
