About Twitter.MS

Our Mission

Twitter.MS is an independent initiative dedicated to reviving the original Twitter experience—the authentic social networking platform that once connected millions of people around the world. Our mission is to bring back the simplicity, freedom, and genuine connection that defined the early days of Twitter, before algorithms, tracking, and corporate interests took over.

We believe that the original Twitter—the one that empowered users to share thoughts, connect with others, and discover content organically—no longer exists. Twitter.MS aims to recreate that experience as a truly independent, community-driven platform.

What is Twitter.MS?

Twitter.MS is more than just a platform—it's an ecosystem of independent Twitter-like services. The name "Twitter.MS" represents a community-driven movement where anyone can create their own independent Twitter experience. Just as this platform uses the Twitter.MS name, we envision a future where multiple independent instances can coexist, each serving their communities while sharing the same core values.

The ".MS" in our name stands for "Micro-Social" or "Micro-Service"—emphasizing our focus on creating a decentralized ecosystem of independent social platforms that revive the original Twitter spirit. We're not just building one platform; we're establishing a framework and philosophy that others can adopt and adapt.

Independence & Freedom

Twitter.MS is completely independent. We are not affiliated with X (formerly Twitter), Elon Musk, or any corporate entity. We operate as an independent project with no ties to commercial interests or algorithmic manipulation.

Our independence means:

  • No User Tracking: We don't track your behavior, preferences, or movements across the platform. Your privacy is fundamental, not a feature.
  • No Algorithmic Content: Your feed is chronological and based on who you follow. No hidden algorithms pushing content you didn't ask for.
  • No Marketing Manipulation: We don't sell your attention to advertisers or optimize for engagement metrics.
  • User Control: You decide what to see, who to follow, and how to use the platform.

Privacy & Security

Privacy is not optional—it's essential. Twitter.MS implements end-to-end encryption for all private messages, ensuring that your conversations remain truly private. Even we cannot read your messages. This is the standard we believe all social platforms should meet.

Your data belongs to you. We don't collect unnecessary information, and we don't share your data with third parties. Simple as that.

An Ecosystem, Not Just a Platform

Twitter.MS is designed to be part of a larger movement. We believe that the original Twitter experience should be accessible to everyone, not controlled by a single entity. That's why we're building Twitter.MS as an open concept that others can adopt.

Just as this instance uses the Twitter.MS name and philosophy, we encourage others to create their own independent Twitter experiences. Whether they use the Twitter.MS name, create variations, or build entirely new platforms inspired by the same principles, the goal is the same: to make the original Twitter experience available to everyone, everywhere.

Twitter.MS is a name for the community, by the community. It represents the idea that the original Twitter—the one we all remember and miss—should belong to everyone, not to any corporation or individual.

How Twitter.MS Works

Twitter.MS operates on simple, transparent principles:

  • Chronological Timeline: See posts in the order they were made, from the people you follow.
  • No Algorithms: No hidden systems deciding what you should see. You control your feed.
  • End-to-End Encrypted Messages: Private conversations are protected with state-of-the-art encryption.
  • Open & Transparent: We believe in transparency. Our code, our policies, and our practices are open for scrutiny.
  • Community-Driven: The platform evolves based on what the community needs, not what maximizes engagement or revenue.
