UpScrolled is a social media platform designed to empower users worldwide — a space to freely express thoughts, share moments, and connect with others. We built it because people are asking for more transparency, authenticity, and trust in the platforms they use every day.
Too often, users are left uncertain about whether their voices will be heard or quietly suppressed. UpScrolled changes that by ensuring every post has a fair chance to be seen, creating an environment that is authentic, unfiltered, and equitable for all.
By putting users first, we are building a platform that belongs to the people who use it — not to hidden algorithms or outside agendas. UpScrolled is designed for clarity, fairness, and freedom, giving communities the power to grow and thrive on their own terms.
Will always remain impartial to political agendas, conflicts, and unjust views.
Will never shadowban users or content.
No unfair advantages for any content or groups
Will always stand with what's right and uphold social responsibility
We exist to put fairness back at the center of social media. Every voice deserves real reach and equal treatment. No shadowbans, no hidden throttling, no pay-to-play favoritism—ever.
We don’t push agendas—political, commercial, or otherwise. Our rules are clear and applied evenly. Our ranking is explainable, our decisions accountable, and influence comes with responsibility.
We’re building a platform where visibility is earned, not granted; where authenticity beats spin; and where communities grow without gatekeepers. If that’s the internet you want, join us.
UpScrolled started with a simple observation: social media had stopped being social. Algorithms replaced genuine connection with engagement tactics. Authentic voices were drowned out, while clickbait and algorithm tricks dominated feeds. Communities struggled to stay connected, held back by shadowbanning and selective censorship.
The breaking point came in late 2023. As global events unfolded, our founder Issam Hijazi—a Palestinian-Jordanian-Australian technologist with decades of experience at companies like IBM, Oracle, and Hitachi—watched firsthand as meaningful stories disappeared from feeds while misinformation thrived.
That’s when everything changed. Instead of accepting the status quo, Issam rolled up his sleeves and dedicated himself fully to building a new kind of platform. Not another social network chasing the same playbook, but something fundamentally different. As UpScrolled launched, people who shared the same belief joined in to support the mission and push it forward.
