Orkut Founder Seeks Revival of Cult Social Network as Petition Gains Momentum
Orkut Büyükkökten, the creator of the once-dominant social network Orkut, has called on users to sign a petition backing a new platform built around real connection and genuine belonging. The appeal has already drawn more than 270,000 signatures as of October 9, signaling renewed appetite for a more community-driven alternative in a social media market shaped by scale, advertising, and algorithmic feeds.
