Overview
The internet should remain a shared resource—open, diverse, and accessible to everyone. This initiative supports a project dedicated to preserving an open web where ideas can be explored without gatekeeping, and where communities can build, learn, and connect in meaningful ways. Your support helps sustain a platform that champions curiosity, safeguards privacy, and encourages creative experimentation that benefits people around the world.
Fundamentally, this effort is about stewardship. It funds the ongoing maintenance of open tools, hosting for community resources, and development work that keeps services reliable and affordable for independent creators, researchers, and educators. It also allows us to invest in accessibility, documentation, and multilingual support so more people can participate in shaping a freer, more inclusive internet.
Why Your Support Matters
Every contribution amplifies a shared commitment to an internet that prioritizes collaboration over corporate control. By supporting this project, you help unlock outcomes that scale beyond a single voice or organization. You enable sustainable infrastructure, thoughtful governance, and transparent practices that empower the broader community to contribute and hold us accountable.
