Famp Description
Famp is a p2p (peer-to-peer) network based social media app. In a p2p network, data is transferred only between users (peers) and not stored on a centralised server. Along with ensuring privacy, this helps save server costs so it can be Ad-Free. Communication between peers in this network is secure.
Gossips-board:
The coolest feature on Famp. Users can interact with other people in their neighbourhood using topic based micro-blogs (short piece of writing) called Gossips.
The social media we know can become a really weird place. Finding new people can be awkward. It is filled with fake accounts and bots, users with a single agenda, who don't act like real people. This prevents genuine people from interacting with each other. We need a medium where people seem real. In gossips-board, users interact only with limited number of people who are in close proximity. This limited reach shall keep bots away. Also, in modern lifestyle, people don't get to interact much with people in their very neighbourhood. Gossips-board is built to help people connect better. People might just be looking to have a discussion about a particular topic with nearby users without befriending them or sharing personal details with them. Gossips-board provides you a way to do just that.
Write what you feel about a topic and it will be shown to all nearby users who have subscribed to that topic. You're only shown posts for topics that you have subscribed. Posts are sent only to users who are nearby. Users living in remote areas can add a location at a distance from their approximate device location, where they're likely to find more peers to interact with.
Gossips can reach greater distances if they are 'Refamped'. Users can also try to initiate a chat with the author of a gossip they see.
Coming Soon:
Features are currently being developed which enable private interaction between people who already know each other (private messaging and stories). More features will be added to make it a complete social media app. Multi-language support will also be added.
