This is a drawing of an Urbit — a new kind of computer. pic.twitter.com/x1cULGKQkc

Your Urbit is a purpose-built tool for your own social software, not MEGACORP social networking. On Urbit, you run (or build) your own software to connect and communicate with your friends and family. pic.twitter.com/Mdndd7wM64

Your Urbit is a permanent, private archive. Your Urbit can store all your data and digital assets safely, privately, forever. pic.twitter.com/Q4ZLEqqZDP

You own your Urbit like you own Bitcoin. Each Urbit is a piece of a new network that’s owned and controlled by its users. pic.twitter.com/VWNfGUUupz

Today, technology controls us. Every MEGACORP has the same incentive: To keep us hooked on their platform. pic.twitter.com/dCVMmFAdYV

We built Urbit so people can control their technology, shape their digital lives and freely build their digital communities. We want to replace the Internet with a foundation for computing that we can all rely on far into the future. pic.twitter.com/FX1qE85FHv

Urbit is a large, ambitious project. But at the core it’s durable, simple and yours.

Nothing quite like this has ever been done before.
