Overview

Open Internet Freedom and Online Experimentation is a community driven effort to keep the online landscape open for exploration, learning, and responsible innovation. This initiative focuses on practical tools, open data, and clear governance that empower developers, researchers, and curious communities to test ideas without unnecessary barriers. By supporting this work, you help sustain a space where experimentation leads to better, more accessible technologies for everyone.

The core purpose is to preserve a transparent environment where ideas can be tried, shared, and iterated with accountability. Our aim is not to gatekeep; it is to provide reliable infrastructure, educational resources, and collaborative pathways that help people learn and contribute at their own pace. Your contribution supports ongoing momentum for a more open, verifiable web where experimentation remains a constructive and inclusive practice.

Why Your Support Matters

For Open Internet Freedom and Online Experimentation, every donation expands our ability to invest in tools, education, and community leadership. This work thrives when a diverse range of voices participates, from hobbyists to researchers, from translators to curators. Your support helps extend access to open resources, ensure long term hosting, and sustain conversations that push forward practical, ethical experimentation.

With consistent support, Open Internet Freedom and Online Experimentation can deepen its impact by growing welcoming spaces for new contributors, sharing actionable documentation, and improving discoverability of open projects. It also helps fund translations, accessibility improvements, and events that connect learners with mentors who share a commitment to openness and responsibility.
