FediHood is a social network built around the place where you live. You choose a city and the topics you care about, then read what neighbours are saying and join in.
It stays a normal fediverse app. Your posts can reach Mastodon, PixelFed, Misskey and the rest, and posts from those servers reach you too.

Seems like it would be really hard for it to hit critical mass of users but I really like the premise of the platform, I’ll have to make an account
Thanks for posting it! ☺️
I joined last week and I’m already seeing more local people like from neighbouring towns and I’m not in a huge city or anything
Thats sick as fuck, super excited to hear that!
I think if they focus on interop with other platforms, like using hashtags for regional posts, it could work
