The relay server has been successfully migrated to the new server. There may be a short delay while DNS propagates. Everything should be running normally.
Maintenance ongoing on holos.social. Server migration, the service will be unavailable for a few hours. I'll let you know when it's back.

Tomorrow, #Holos is moving to a more powerful server. One issue identified was inactive users accumulating a large number of pending activities on the relay. The relay now detects inactive users (no connection for more than 14 days) and reduces home timeline retention to 4 hours, while all notifications (follow, mentions, DMs, etc.) are kept at their normal retention period.

First #Holos social account created on iPhone!

Yes, #HolosSocial is far from perfect, but everything is being done to improve the UX. I still believe in this project because it offers a lot of perspectives, and bad behavior can be fixed.
Thank you to all the people trusting this project. Even if it fails, I am pretty sure it will help push #ActivityPub further.
Now it's clearly time to let iOS users give #HolosSocial a try. It's still early, but no reason to keep delaying the iOS release. The project is mature enough for both Android and iOS.

Something to clarify about custom domains. This feature lets you own your identity with your domain name. No one else can create an account with it, the relay verifies domain ownership through DNS before activation.
If you want friends or family to have an identity on your domain, you can. As the domain owner, you control who gets one. For root domain identities, this is done through WebFinger configuration, without hosting a relay and even if people are on different relays.

#Holos 1.1.2 has been published.
This release fixes backup to disk that was incorrectly opening a share dialog, a timeout issue with push registration, and reply mentions showing as @Unknown in the local timeline. Also fixed signup that could misleadingly suggest registration on a custom domain.

Available in #FDroid (custom repo) and Framadrive : https://framadrive.org/s/fsnpxkdSct4JH7k

#Holos started at the end of 2025. A full #ActivityPub server now runs on your phone, with the ability to use your own domain as your identity, #E2EE DMs via Signal Protocol, zero-knowledge encrypted backup, #ActivityPub media served from your own cloud, a tailored timeline based on your interests thanks to #HolosDiscover, and the ability to switch views depending on your mood or the content you want to browse. Thank you for your feedback and support that helped to go through these steps.
