About Akkoma
Akkoma is a fork of Pleroma that provides a federated social networking platform based on the ActivityPub protocol. It lets you run your own social media instance where you control your data, moderation, and features. You can host it on your own hardware, from a VPS to a Raspberry Pi, and connect with users on Mastodon, PeerTube, and other Fediverse services.
The software focuses on performance and low resource usage. It supports common ActivityPub features like statuses, reactions, polls, and media attachments, plus Akkoma-specific additions such as bookmarks, chat via MUCs, and a customizable frontend called Soapbox. Akkoma runs on Linux servers and uses PostgreSQL for storage. The backend is written in Elixir using the Phoenix web framework.
Akkoma is open source under the AGPLv3 license. It is best suited for experienced sysadmins or privacy-conscious users who want a lightweight alternative to Mastodon. The project maintains documentation on its website and a community chat for support. There is no official hosted version; you must self-host it.
