Our 2030 Vision

Self-hosted & User-controlled Services

Self-hosted software and user-controlled hardware have become the norm, allowing people to shape their own experiences and connect with others on their own terms.

Extensive Data Privacy

Data is private by default, and users have complete ownership over their digital lives and the software their devices run.

User Protection Over Corporate Profit

Decent computing systems protect users and don't sell their attention to the highest bidder.

Empowerment Through Technology

Technology has become a tool for empowerment, creativity, and connection, avoiding exploitation, manipulation, and control.

Our Principles

Human-centered Design

We stand for human-centered design principles that prioritize users' needs, well-being, and agency.

Community Self-Hosted Services

We advocate for community-run, self-hosted services that prioritize user control and data sovereignty.

Durable, Repairable Hardware

We advocate for sustainable, repairable hardware designs that reduce electronic waste and promote a culture of reuse.

Free and Open Standards

We believe in promoting free and open standards that facilitate interoperability and user choice.

Join Our Mission

Help us create a future where technology serves humanity, not the other way around.
