The year is 2016 AD. The whole web is occupied by centralized services… Well… not entirely. One small village of indomitable Free Software lovers still holds out against the invaders. And life is not easy for the legionaries who garrison the fortified camps of Closedum, Centralizum, Trackum, and Proprietarum.

Framasoft aims to offer around thirty free alternative services to provide a substitute for those services which, once they get hold of us, proceed to feed upon our data.
But there are many other players working to de-google-ify Internet and many other such services.

You will find below, a list summarizing and supplementing the alternatives presented on the map. It is inspired by Prism-Break which promotes other software in more specialized areas.

In the list, each service generally includes a complex website communicating with software installed on a computer which stores personal data and which can be accessed through various home-based tools .

So when we use Internet, we must necessarily trust several links in the chain joining us to our personal data online. Unless we self-host, the cloud is always someone else"e;s computer. It is therefore important to know who we are being asked to trust and what their software is doing with our data.
