I'm not sure how free software would fit this community. So i apologize in advance.

CHATONS – kittens in french – is the Collective of Hosters Alternative, Transparent, Open, Neutral and Solidarity.

This collective aims to bring together structures offering free, ethical and decentralised online services in order to allow users to quickly find alternatives that respect their data and privacy to the services offered by GAFAM (Google, Apple, Facebook, Amazon, Microsoft).

CHATONS is a collective initiated by the association Framasoft in 2016 following the success of its campaign De-google-ify Internet.

They are a NGO organisation that offer plenty free software service. They provide alternative service to big tech.

You may know alternative to gmail (roundcube), onedrive (nextcloud), reddit (lemmy) but those services need maintenance, selfhosting...it's time consuming, difficult to manage.

New users want to leave big tech service but may not have the technical knowledge to do that alone.

So this is where CHATONS project can help (kittens in french) new users and free them. There are also plenty hackerspace.

If you know similar organization project in europe, i would be happy to discover them :D

Working fine in the web browser. (Service: FreshRSS. Host: cheredeprince.net.)

I haven't been able to get it working in an Android app yet (tried Capy Reader and Readrops), but that might be because I don't know anything about making FreshRSS or those apps work. I'll keep trying.
