A front-end for precious links

All social networks have become bottomless feeds of disposable content. In limiting sharing to just one thing at a time, people will be more selective about what they’re posting. On Arbtr, sharing a new link will overwrite the previous one, so your feed will always be clean.

Small group energy

Use Arbtr at your own pace. We’re striving to build a calm environment without any likes, push notifications or upvoting features. Get excited by fresh new links, but also celebrate older ones. Leave your post untouched for a while and it will gain the aged status. Aged posts remain on the feed because they are extra precious to their arbiters.

Your data

Our goal is to build the smallest social media platform in the cloud. No profile images, no behavioural analytics, no algorithmic recommendations. Just your name, comment and links.

The best content filter is the company you keep. But on social media, this content filter has been blown to pieces. Our connections aren't curators, they're just people we know. We need to reboot if we want a real curation platform.
