I’ve been exploring various Fediverse platforms and noticed we have alternatives for many popular social media sites:
- Friendica (Facebook-like)
- Pixelfed (Instagram-like)
- Lemmy (Reddit-like)
- Mastodon (Twitter-like)
- etc.
But I’m curious: Is there a Fediverse equivalent to the classic MySpace, or its modern revival, Spacehey?
I’m talking about a platform that offers:
- Highly customizable profiles
- A focus on personal expression through layout and design
- Music integration
- The nostalgic feel of early 2000s social networking
- etc.
Has anyone come across a project like this in the Fediverse? Or do you think there’s potential for developing such a platform?
Alternatively, if that’s too much work/hassle, has anyone ever considered reaching out to the SpaceHey team about the possibility of them potentially federating their platform? It could be an interesting addition to the Fediverse ecosystem.
There’s been some talk about Spacehey Federation.
I’d love to hear your thoughts, experiences, or any leads on this topic.

MySpace is so old that I don’t know what it looks like.
Imagine a bright pink background with tiled rotating toaster gifs across the whole thing, with a couple panes saying you like Bloc Party over that

Its been so long since I wrote HTML" </td> </tr> </body> <footer><a href="someLimks.com"></footer> </html>I think you need triple backticks for that comment to render properly!It is triple backticked. Working on my mobile client
haven’tchecked on the website it works just fine.Oh interesting, must be a fault with my client. I’ll raise a bug!
I love these little eyeball people
I haven’t seen anything quite like that yet, but for federated music there’s bandwagon.fm which is more of a bandcamp equivalent. There’s a lot of fediverse projects, so it wouldn’t suprise me if there’s something out there.
also funkwhale, but again that’s closer to a streaming service
GoToSocial allows you to have a customized profile page and use custom emojis and such.
