Step into the Kutenai Lightweb & Tech Alternatives Forum, where the digital world is reimagined with community ownership at its core. Here, we are committed to fostering Digital Literacy and harnessing the power of Open Source Technologies, ensuring our tech ecosystem reflects our sovereign-community-first values. As a cooperative, we empower the Kutenais' local community by giving them the reins to govern and shape digital services. We prioritize data sovereignty and privacy, advocating for systems where your personal data remains yours, safeguarded by encryption and hosted locally in Kaslo and Nelson. This forum isn't merely a dialogue space; it's a movement dedicated to crafting a digital landscape where technology is a tool for community empowerment, not a means for corporate gain. In our forum, we actively explore and promote Technology Alternatives aimed at sculpting a "Better World" and a more sustainable future. We delve into decentralized technologies like NextCloud for data storage, Matrix for secure communication, and a variety of open-source social platforms that challenge the dominance of mainstream services. Our conversations are centered on adapting these technologies to serve our local needs, encouraging an environment ripe for learning, innovation, and community-driven sustainability. By advocating for and using open-source software, we're working towards a future where technology transparency, community control, and ethical considerations guide our digital evolution. Our aim is to build a connected, equitable, and knowledgeable world where privacy is not just protected but celebrated as a fundamental right of every community member. Telegram:
