Current social media platforms often prioritize hidden profit-driven algorithms that:
- 📢 Amplify hate speech & extremist content for engagement (e.g., Facebook).
- 👀 Promote vulgar/softporn content to drive views (e.g., Instagram).
- 🎭 Lack transparency in content moderation and propaganda influence (e.g., Twitter/X).
We believe the world needs transparent, ethical, and open-source alternatives.
That’s why we are building Swamaj Madhyam — an open collaboration hub to design, develop, and maintain social platforms that empower communities without hidden manipulation.
- Transparency – All source code is public. People can see what is promoted, why, and how.
- Ethical Design – No exploitative engagement hacks. Communities help set the rules.
- Open Collaboration – Anyone can suggest improvements, audit problems, and contribute.
- Sustainable Funding – Platforms will include ads, but:
- Ads will be openly documented in the code.
- Users will know what is shown and why.
- No hidden profiling or surveillance-based targeting.
- 📱 Alternative apps to Facebook, Instagram, Twitter (and beyond).
- 🛠️ Tools for content transparency (audit logs, moderation dashboards).
- 🔍 Research on algorithm accountability.
- 💡 A transparent ad system that sustains the platform while protecting user rights.
- ⭐ Star and watch the repos you’re interested in.
- 🐛 Open issues for bugs, feature requests, or ethical concerns.
- 💻 Submit pull requests with improvements.
- 📢 Join discussions in our community channels.
All projects will be open source, available for anyone to audit, improve, and use.
A world where social media serves people first, sustains itself with transparent ads, and grows through open collaboration.
