Memos feature

A microblog on your own server

Share quick thoughts and updates from an instance you run, one public memo at a time.

Publish short public memos from your own instance as a personal microblog.

Benefits

What changes when you use it.

Each point describes what current Memos releases do.

  • Write a short memo and set it to public to publish it

  • A chronological Explore feed, with no ranking algorithm, ads, or telemetry in the software

  • Private memos stay out of the public feed

  • Images, links, and Markdown formatting in every post

  • Comments and emoji reactions from signed-in users

  • Served from your own domain through your reverse proxy

Digital Garden

Keep a public space where short ideas collect over time.

Technical details

The implementation stays inspectable.

  • Per-memo visibility, so private memos never enter the public feed

  • Instance access setting controls whether anonymous visitors can read public memos

  • Share links and share-as-image for posting elsewhere

  • REST API and webhooks for publishing workflows
