Hey Lemmy!
We’ve released gofoss.net, a beginner’s guide to free and open source software, privacy and sustainable tech.
The site is available in English, French and German. We hope that it can help some of you to:
- safely browse the Internet
- encrypt your conversations
- protect your data
- switch to Linux
- free your phone from Google & Apple
- join the Fediverse & use alternative cloud providers
- self-host your stuff
The source code is available on GitLab. Happy to chat, let us know what you think!
For more information, please come find us at gofoss.net :)

Thx for the post & feel free to elaborate. While we can’t please all, we are always open to constructive feedback. To be fair:
a) we’re a bunch of FOSS idealists. So no affiliate links, sponsorships, crypto-shadiness or any other bullshit on our website
b) we make it pretty clear none of those services is the panacea. We’re still convinced they’re better than Big Tech/GAFAM
c) we mention caveats/criticism where deemed necessary, e.g. Mozilla’s conflict of interest, Signal’s privacy flaws, etc.
d) we always mention a couple of alternatives, so that readers can pick & choose according to their needs
