App.net on the Mac

Imagine an ad free service or platform that put its users first. One that was wasn't beholden to advertisers or offered a free service but didn't sell on your data making you the product. One that offered a rich development platform embraced by many of the leading Mac and iOS developers, crafting new and exciting applications.
