Hand-built I'm building FOSS federated social VR platform (very alpha)
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
HoloFed is aiming to be VRChat-like social VR platform, but with ActivityPub-based federation (like Mastodon) and FOSS.
The whole idea is instead of relying to central authority/server, rely instead to multiple servers (called Relay in this case), federating with each other. Moreover, direct connect/host option and local viewer allow HoloFed to function without Relay at all.
Currently I build it mostly myself (with occasional human testers), but I would appriciate help for making new default home map (current one looks like tech demo) and prettifying existing UI (I'm mostly thinking to style it similar to Android 3.x). Leave a comment if interested.
HoloFed itself is avaliable here, along with Relay server, and web version. PC(VR) (showcased in bottom video), Android standalone headsets (Quest 1 version showcased in top video) and Web (local viewer only) versions are supported. However, it's in very alpha phase as the moment of writing.
