Welcome to On the Rock – a social media site proudly created in the Channel Islands, especially for Channel Island residents.
On the Rock was built with a simple idea in mind: social media should feel local, safe, and fun again. In recent years, many of the big platforms have become overwhelming, impersonal, and sometimes even toxic. They’re driven by algorithms, ads, and noise – and not by real community or meaningful connection.
We created On the Rock because we wanted something different. Something smaller, more personal, and more respectful – a space where people in our islands can share their thoughts, photos, and stories without the pressure and problems found elsewhere.
This site is designed for real people – not bots or brands. It’s for chatting with neighbours, finding out what’s happening nearby, and supporting one another.
No tracking. No third-party data sales. No nonsense.
Just people, posts, and community – the way social media should be.
Thanks for being here, and for helping make On the Rock a better, friendlier place to connect.
