BizzFed is a professional network based on ActivityPub. Profiles, posts, and job listings live on independent instances - and still talk to each other.
BizzFed looks like a professional network - and behaves like one. Profiles, company pages, job listings. What's underneath is different: every account lives on an instance. Many instances communicate via ActivityPub.
Your account is @you@your-instance. Reachable from anywhere on the web, hosted where you want.
A search on your instance finds jobs from all connected instances - cross-instance.
Switching instances is a standardised action. Existing connections follow automatically.
When a publisher employee in Munich posts a job, she hosts it on her publisher instance. A backend developer in Leipzig still sees it - because his instance is federated.
Operated by a publishing house. Own moderation, own user group.
The reference instance. Open to all - Early Access, free.
Self-hosted for a single company or team.
BizzFed is free software. Anyone who wants to run their own instance - for a team, an industry, or a community - can do so today. The source code is on Codeberg, a ready-made Docker setup (Postgres, Redis, MinIO) is in the repository.
Detailed installation documentation is in progress. Questions? Contact
Source code on CodebergMore BizzFed instances are planned. If you're interested in running your own instance, get in touch early.
The choice of first instance is not final - profile and connections can be migrated at any time.
