Hello fediverse!

This morning we’re opening a beta for Surf, a new kind of browser for a new kind of web — the open social web.

Built from the ground up on ActivityPub, AT Proto and RSS, you can create and surf amazing custom feeds that organize people, videos, articles, images and podcasts around the things you care about.

Surf is a liberating new approach to how we use social media and I can’t wait to hear what you think of it. Learn more and sign up for the beta at surf.social

@mike Looking forward to trying this out! Is this strictly an app, or will it also be available on the web?

@mntyfrsh @mike +1 one to this question - please, let's also end the app tyranny.

@jwcph @mntyfrsh Yes there will be web and desktop versions with layouts optimized for larger displays.

@mike @jwcph @mntyfrsh Thank you, glad you're building surf.social for larger displays on the web. My close vision doesn't let me view complex or tiled content on a phone for any length of time.

@Patrickoldhiker @mike @mntyfrsh My ageing eyes don't like it either - but I just generally don't like to do anything on my phone except calling & texting, thank you very much.
