SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., June 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — A new Christian social media platform, ActsSocial, has officially launched to the global public following a prelaunch campaign that attracted more than 100,000 signups from users across six continents. The project, which secured $3.5 million in funding from faith-aligned investors, aims to offer a secure, uncensored space for Christian communities to engage online.
Rooted in biblical principles outlined in Acts 2:42-47, ActsSocial has been developed as a platform for discipleship, communication, and fellowship. Its creators emphasize a faith-based online community structure that avoids algorithm-driven content delivery and commercial data practices commonly used by mainstream technology platforms.
