budgie

Find your nest.

Budgie is a friendly home for communities. Every community is a nest, with its own colour and shape, and the whole app changes to match the nest you’re in.

No email or phone number needed. For ages 13 and up.

Communities are nests

Tap one and watch Budgie change around it. Join the nests you like, or start your own.

What you can do

Post anything

Text, pictures, links and polls, with flairs and spoiler tags.

Spark what you love

Upvote, or add a Spark when something is lovely, clever, funny or wild.

Friends and chats

Add friends and chat privately. You’ll see when they’ve read it.

Calm when you want it

Calm mode hides every number. Break reminders, dark mode and compact cards too.

Rules, not AI

Clear rules keep it kind. Swearing gets dotted out, and real people read every report.

Private by default

No email or phone number to sign up. Budgie doesn’t track you or sell your data.

Brand new, made by one developer

Budgie was built from scratch and it’s still growing. If something breaks, say so in n/budgiehq and it gets fixed.
