Aetheria

Publishing that can't be
switched off

Aetheria is a decentralized, serverless replacement for Substack or Medium. Your posts live on the Freenet peer-to-peer network instead of one company's servers — nobody can deplatform you, and nobody stands between you and your readers.

Coming soon!Read the docs

Free, open source, and it always will be.

Nobody can take your posts down

Your writing is stored on Freenet, a peer-to-peer network with no central server. There's no company account to suspend, no platform to pressure, and no single computer to unplug.

You hold the keys

Your identity is a cryptographic keypair on your own machine, protected by a passphrase only you know. Every post you publish is signed by it, so readers can always verify it's really from you.

Direct, non-custodial payments

Subscriptions are paid wallet-to-wallet over the Lightning Network (via Nostr Wallet Connect) — money goes straight from a reader to a publisher. No platform ever touches it.

Free and open source

Aetheria isn't a company or a product with a business model built on your data. The code is public, the protocol is documented, and anyone can run it.
