If you are looking for alternatives to social media owned by right-wing oligarchs, Pillowfort is a leftist, NSFW-friendly platform that protects user privacy. We've been around for almost 9 years already! You can join our SHORT rolling waitlist to get started TODAY.

Pillowfort: Good folks, good art & posts, can get good discussions on a variety of topics, especially web & all the garbage going on in the world. In particular I love sharing my art and my neocities web progress & I love seeing others share theirs too. It's funded by users and is against genAI. +

Do you mind if we share this? :)

I mean we're still very much around

Update: Everything should be back to normal, sorry for the hiccups! :) Let us know if you still encounter any issues.
Hey all, we've received your reports of site issues and are investigating, thanks!

I've got a Facebook and an Instagram because that's where readers are, but I am not relying on them.

Alternatives: Pillowfort is small right now with a delightfully random jumble of a userbase. I suspect many will like their policies on NSFW (allowed, just tag it!) and AI (not allowed).
Owned by right wing billionaire fascist supporters and/or welcoming to fascists:

X
Instagram
Facebook
Threads
WhatsApp
TikTok
Substack

Plan your exit strategies if you haven't already.

(We have a rolling waitlist to prevent our servers from getting overwhelmed by too much traffic at once; this is a problem we are working on fixing however!)

Hey all, we're 72% of the way to our funding goal for this month. Pillowfort is an independent social media network funded by our users, instead of right-wing billionaire oligarchs. Help keep Pillowfort running by donating here: pillowfort.social/donations

Pillowfort is small and scrappy! It may not have all the modern features you're used to in a SM site, but it's not owned by anyone who literally goes to the White House to have dinner with Trump, and sickeningly in this day and age that is becoming a rarity.

I remember being told when Pillowfort was still young that there was "no room" in the social media marketplace for competitors, and since then I've gotten to watch almost every major social media network kneecap itself by either becoming a fascist cesspit or through general enshittification

I hate to seem like I'm just using this situation to promote my website but like... this is WHY Pillowfort exists. Pillowfort was created in 2017 before so many of the big sites got bought out by fascist billionaires, but it's become much more relevant since then.

There are multiple reports of TikTok censoring anti-ICE content since the site went under new ownership. It has never been more important for independent social media to exist
This morning, I recorded a video on TikTok about why DHS’s arguments for the power to enter homes without judicial warrants in immigration cases are bunk.

Nine hours later, TikTok still says my video is “under review,” and can’t be shared.

Well, here’s a link:

Maintenance is complete! Thanks for your patience. :)
Hi all, we're going to be doing more database maintenance today, so you can expect the site to be down for a while (I'd estimate an hour or more) this afternoon. We'll let you know when everything is back up and running.

We believe this issue should be fixed now, can you tell us if you are able to access the site again?
January 11, 2026 at 4:24 PM
We're looking into it!

Hey all, we're going to be doing some server maintenance shortly, so Pillowfort will be down for a little while. We don't expect this to take more than an hour and we will let you all know when things are back up and running!

Hello Tim Cook I worked at Tumblr when you gave us 48 hours to get rid of all the consenting, adult boobs. Up all night at your whim, out of the blue. But you're still cool with Twitter and its CSAM and revenge porn and whatever the fuck this is? Why do you even HAVE guidelines?
Previously, several of these companies, like Apple, IBM, and Disney, have paused advertising on X in response to antisemitic content. But antisemitism on X never slowed, sexual abuse imagery increased, and all of these companies quietly resumed advertising anyways.

Why isn't there a bigger Grok boycott?
Advertisers, politicians, and investors are still all-in on X, despite a sexual abuse crisis.
