In a typical week, we might have a Monday night dance party, an event to change avatars to match a theme, a writing challenge, and requests for peoples' favorite quotes for the day. Folks will host coding parties, Minecraft play days, and other community events. The Secret Santa around Christmas is a blast.

=== Data ownership ===
 
 
 
What you create on pnut is yours. You can download it at any time in its raw form, and you can remove it as you see fit.
 
 
 
Once you have an account, you can authorize third-party apps to do powerful things. The major features are a global feed of posts for you to engage in conversation, and private messaging between groups. But pnut is very extensible, and developers can use it to build many different kinds of apps.
 
 
 
=== Developer platform ===
 
 
 
Pnut is an API-first platform; we keep the service lean and let developers build the front-ends and creative applications on top of pnut.
 
 
 
The API was inspired by App.net, and there are lots of resources available to jump into development. People have built apps for iOS, Android, macOS, Windows, Linux, Blackberry, command line, and more.
 
 
 
For $10/year, developers have access to pnut's API and app directory. But any user can create one app for themselves. Take a look at the API.
 
 
 
=== Economics ===
 
 
 
The network is supported directly by users and developers. For a minimum of $10/year or $3/month, a pnut badge will unlock a few perks:
 
* 10GiB storage
 
* RSS feed of your personal stream
 
* E-mail notifications for reposts and new followers
 
 
 
=== Invites ===
 
 
 
We have no intention to be elitist here at our social sideshow; the invite system is fun, and a practical way to control spam. We'd love to hear from you!
 
 
 
We love talking about this project, and are open to any ideas you have for supporting it! From features, to writing copy and ways to welcome people, to graphics or other improvements, let us know.
 
 
 
There are no ads, no ulterior motives. Pnut is built by people who enjoy building.

Our preference is for feature requests and bugs to be submitted on GitHub, but we won't turn down good input! If your issue involves security, please contact us privately first.
