Pleroma
A self-hosted Communication & Social app you can run on your own server.
Pleroma is a self-hosted communication platform that you run on your own server instead of renting it as a cloud service. Running it yourself keeps the data on your own network and lets you back it up however you like.
Development happens in the open on Forgejo; the repository has collected 6 stars so far. Repository activity was last recorded on Sep 9, 2026, and the project is classed as actively maintained in our snapshot.
Before you switch
Communication tools only work if your people can reach them. Check guest access, mobile apps, and federation or bridging support before migrating a community. Self-hosting gives you the data and the rules, but someone has to own updates and moderation.
Like every project listed on SelfHosted, Pleroma is developed in the open — you can read the code, follow development, and even contribute. Check the system requirements and the project’s own documentation linked on this page before installing.
