About Colibri Social
Colibri is a next-generation social chat app, built on the AT Protocol (also called ATproto). You sign in with your existing Atmosphere identity, and your messages, images, and identity stay in your own PDS (Personal Data Server). You own them, and they travel with you across the network instead of being locked inside our servers. Communities work the same way: each one is its own repository on the network, so a community’s data isn’t trapped in any single app either. Chat with friends, get on voice and video calls, and let your community spread its wings.
What’s new
Version 0.5.1 · Updated August 31, 2026
- Better emoji search: Searching the emoji picker now ranks by relevance instead of category order - Safer, better links: Pasting a link while text is selected now wraps it into a markdown link. A link whose visible text claims one site while pointing at another shows as plain text instead, and opening a link that leaves Colibri asks first and shows the full address. You can turn that confirmation off in Settings > Preferences. - Lists that nest: Indented list items now render nested, Tab and Shift+Tab move an item in and out a level, and each level numbers on its own. - Noise, be suppressed!: Noise suppression is now a single switch instead of seven presets, with a separate Voice Gate switch that mutes you between sentences. This concludes the previous experiment. - Code blocks stay code: Shortcodes like :joy: and pasted emoji stay literal inside code, suggestion popups no longer open there, list markers stop continuing, and Enter adds a line instead of sending while you write a fenced block.
