Free Our Feeds

A campaign to support open, people-powered social media

Social media is broken: controlled by a handful of billionaires who shape what people see, say, and believe. These platforms profit from division, exploit user data, and lock people into closed systems.

There's a rare opportunity to build alternatives, based on tech choices that serve people.

A better way is possible

Our plans

1. Support Open Infrastructure

We’re working to secure funding for the foundations of independent tech, to power open, adaptable social media platforms, run by many companies, communities and initiatives.

2. Protect Against Future Capture

We’re building nonprofit governance to make sure this new ecosystem stays accountable firstly to the public, rather than platforms or shareholders.

3. Make Room for Real Choice

Open systems enable many apps and experiences, not just one feed controlled by a corporate algorithm. Our vision is for an ecosystem that offers people more control over their information and communications choices, and supports a diversity of viewpoints.

Free Our Feeds exists to make this future possible

But we need you to help make it happen
