📖 Key Information
A distributed social network (not to be confused with a decentralized or federated social network) is a network wherein all participating social networking services can communicate with each other through a unified communication protocol, and all participants are equal. Users that reside on a compatible service can interact with any user from any compatible service without having to log on to the origin's website. From a societal perspective, one may compare this concept to that of social media being a public utility.
