-title: Find Me on Diaspora

-summary: I have started using and contributing to Diaspora.

-
-With all of the recent news about the NSA’s widespread spying, I have
-decided to ween myself off of proprietary, centralized web
-services. Facebook, Google, and other such corporations hold onto
-massive amounts of our data that we’ve willingly given to them via
-status messages, “like” buttons, searches, and emails. Using and
-contributing to free (as in freedom), decentralized (like email) web
-services is a really great way to re-establish control of our
-data. These services rely on many small, interconnected nodes to
-operate, rather than a monolithic website that is under the control of
-one entity. If the distinction between centralized and decentralized
-isn’t clear, consider how email functions. There are many email
-providers to choose from. Users can communicate with others that
-choose to use a different email provider. This is how web services
-should work, but unfortunately very few work this way now.
-
-The centralized web application that I spend too much time using is
-Facebook. I have knowingly given Facebook a “frontdoor” into my life
-for years now and I’m ready to move on. I think that the concept of a
-“social network” is fun, so I wanted a Facebook replacement.
-Fortunately, there is one: [Diaspora](http://diasporaproject.org/).
-
-Diaspora is a [free](https://github.com/diaspora/diaspora),
-distributed, social networking web application written in Ruby using
-the Rails framework. Diaspora is a community-run project. Its success
-depends upon users, developers, technical writers, user interface
-designers, etc. investing their time and/or money into making it
-better. The Diaspora network is broken up into many servers, known as
-[pods](http://podupti.me). Users have the choice of which pod to store
-their data on. Pods assert no ownership over their user’s data, unlike
-Facebook, and do not use that data for targeted
-advertisements. Diaspora is still a rather young project, but it does
-everything that I need it to do. Goodbye, Facebook!
-
-Since I’m a programmer, I naturally wanted to hack on some code and
-contribute.  The main developers are very friendly and give great
-guidance to newcomers that want to help out. Every Monday is a “Bug
-Mash Monday”, where a list of open issues is presented to entice
-contributors to resolve them. In the past few weeks, I have made two
-contributions to the Diaspora project: a
-[bug fix](https://github.com/diaspora/diaspora/issues/2948) and a
-[small feature](https://github.com/diaspora/diaspora/issues/2948). Diaspora
-is very hackable and I encourage other developers with Ruby/Rails and
-Javascript knowledge to join in.
-
-TL;DR: Diaspora is great. Create an account. Check out my
-[profile](https://joindiaspora.com/u/davexunit). Start sharing. Happy
-hacking. :)
