About

+ +

Every platform you use today has an owner. Someone who reads your posts before +you publish them. Someone who decides what you can say, who you can reach, and +whether your account exists tomorrow.

+ +

Tesseras is a peer-to-peer social network with no central server, no accounts +to ban, and no algorithm deciding what you see. You publish markdown content +directly to an overlay network. Others discover it through a distributed hash +table — no middleman, no moderation queue, no terms of service.

+ +

You can be pseudonymous, with a cryptographic identity that proves authorship +without revealing who you are. Or you can be fully anonymous — no identity at +all, just words.

+ +

How It Works

+ +

Nodes connect directly over QUIC, forming a self-organizing network. Content +is addressed by its BLAKE3 hash — immutable and verifiable. Communities are +cryptographic zones, not corporate property. Names are local petnames, not a +global registry someone controls.

+ +

There is no blockchain. No tokens. No incentive layer. Nodes relay content for +each other because that is how the network works.

+ +

Why "Tesseras"?

+ +

A tessera is a small piece of stone or glass used to compose a mosaic. +Individually simple. Individually durable. But together, they form something +larger. Some Roman mosaics made of tesserae are still intact after two thousand +years.

+ +

Each post in the network is a tessera — a small, self-contained fragment. +The network is the mosaic, assembled piece by piece, by many hands.

+ +

Standing on the Shoulders of Giants

+ +

Tesseras doesn't exist in a vacuum. It builds on decades of work by projects +that proved decentralization is not just possible — it works.
