Veridonia

Veridonia is a social app where people write posts, share and discuss news and links. No algorithm or ranking formula picks what to show in the feed. Everything that gets in is decided by people like you. This is what that looks like:

Why a like button wasn’t enough
We wanted three things a simple upvote can’t give you. Each one is why the vote you just watched is built the way it is.
