I’ve been using status.cafe for a while and I love it, but if there is one thing that has been bugging me is that there’s no way to export all the status updates I’ve posted over the years. If the site goes down someday, that whole history is just gone.

With that thought bugging me, I built kibun.social, a minimal status.cafe-like service built on top of atmosphere, the same open social protocol used by Bluesky.

Because it’s decentralized, every status you post is stored directly inside your PDS. You can export them, move to another app, or build your own frontend in the future. The platform is basically just a viewer/writer on top of your data.

It's very straightforward and takes seconds to update your status. You login with your atproto handle, select an emoji and post your status. You also gets your own RSS feed for your statuses if you want to follow them elsewhere.

It’s still early but I’d love to hear what people think - especially people who enjoy small social spaces and decentralized web stuff.
