Fediversity is a comprehensive effort to bring easy-to-use, hosted cloud services with service portability and personal freedom at their core to everyone. It wants to provide everyone with high-quality, secure IT systems for everyday use. Without tracking, without exploitation, in a way that runs everywhere and scales effortlessly. Fediversity is based on NixOS, a disruptive Linux distribution with a unique approach to package and configuration management. Built on top of the Nix package manager, NixOS is completely declarative, makes upgrading systems reliable, and has many other advantages. Because it is reproducible, it is ideally suited for complex deployment scenarios where consistent behaviour, stability and configurability matter.
One such “complex” deployment scenario is running state-of-the-art services for the Fediverse, like PeerTube, Mastodon, Owncast or Lemmy — especially if you want to for instance add services like live chat or transcoding. But even running more traditional services like modern e-mail servers with possible whistles and bells can be daunting. The same holds for deploying a VPN, private cloud storage, wiki, etc. Fediversity will enable all of these use cases, and more — finally bringing these to the market in a way that is as conveient as using a hosted service.
Fediversity is a pilot funded by the European Commission, building on many projects funding through the Next Generation Internet initiative. The results of the project should greatly simplify the creation and delivery of robust and secure services, on the web and beyond.
Fediversity will deliver an ambitious development effort, but this is a vast domain with many more challenges than what any preconceived effort could tackle by itself. This is why we invite your contribution to help us reshape the state of play, and together create an open, trustworthy and reliable internet for all.

Information about the project. TODO.
The Open Internet Discourse Foundation (OID) is founded on the belief that everyone deserves the freedom to express themselves and use the internet without constraints, and is committed to help build a better internet where individuals can truly be who they are.
The three pillars that are at the core of the OID Foundation:
OID believes in the fundamental right of individuals to privacy, self-determination, and freedom of expression.
Building sustainably. The OID Foundation believes that the internet is crucial infrastructure for society, and as such, should be build from the perspective that software projects can exist and be maintained for a long time; decades, not years.
Transparancy. The OID Foundation takes the commitment to openness seriously, and strives to use open software in all aspects.
In order to realise our vision, we need a healthy, functional and open internet. This is where OID comes in, working on the infrastructure that powers the internet in a way that promotes its values.
OID Foundation is rooted in constructive optimism, believing in tackling challenges head-on with a positive outlook, viewing each obstacle as an opportunity for improvement. As a practical example of the long-term vision is the work on NixOS that the OID is doing, where the reproducibility and long-term maintainability of NixOSs package management help with an open and sustainable internet.
