Local-first, privacy-first multi-network social media client
A client app that aggregates feeds from every social network the user belongs to (X, LinkedIn, Bluesky, Mastodon), forms a local social graph of connections and posts, allows cross-posting and replying from one place, and uses small language models running on-device for summarization and moderation. No servers hold user data, eliminating both privacy exposure and API/LLM round-trip costs.

Problem: Each social network is a walled bubble that demands all your attention, so you only hear from one bubble and miss whole communities. Existing AI assistants and clients can't cross-pollinate the personal data locked in each network.
For: People who must maintain presence on several networks (e.g. tech workers) but cannot check each app daily; initially engineers on modern, capable hardware.
