Frequently asked
questions
-
The Newsmast Foundation makes tools for organisations who already have communities and want a better home for them. We work with charities, independent newsrooms and professional networks to bring people together in safe, healthy, independent spaces with elegant, user-friendly apps.
-
The open social web is a growing network of social media tools running on open-source software which, as a result, cannot be owned or controlled by big corporations.
These social tools – run by nonprofits, communities and sometimes individuals – work a bit like email: no one owns ‘email’, and you can send an email to anyone, no matter whether you’re on Gmail, Hotmail or Protonmail’s servers. Platforms like Mastodon, Bluesky and Threads are part of this growing network.
Our role is to help people engage in that ecosystem by packaging it within our user-friendly apps, so organisations can engage with open social without needing to understand the technical bits. This video, by filmmaker and open social advocate Elena Rossi, and this blog post by technologist and open social veteran Ben Werdmuller, are great resources if you want to learn more.

We help organisations build digital community by:
- Building safe, independent and affordable apps with built-in open-source social media, allowing people to nurture ethical online community spaces
- Creating educational content that demystifies alternatives to Big Tech on the open social web

The Newsmast Foundation is a UK registered charity (1205953), building and advocating for an open, ethical social media ecosystem. Our work is guided by three interlinked pillars:
● Technology – developing affordable, independent, no-code tools
● Advocacy – promoting awareness of the open social web as a public good
● Empowerment – helping organisations and communities own their networks and data
Our mission is to demonstrate that an open-source, independent model of social media is not only viable, but better for society.
