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 :)

Awesome site! I think it will be very useful for beginners to go through at their own pace and help them understand what each suggestion will won't do.

thanks! the idea is indeed to make the subject accessible even to non-techies. It's a challenge, and we can still do better ;)
