'''Not recommended.''' Cloud video conferencing with breakout rooms,
webinars, and cloud recording. Included here for comparison against
[[Proton Meet]] and [[Jitsi Meet]], the alternatives we do recommend. (1) ·
'''Not recommended.''' Cloud-based team messaging platform with channels,
threads, and integrations. Free tier limits message history to 90 days and caps
integrations at 10. Included here for comparison against [[Mattermost]] and
[[Rocket.Chat]], the two self-hosted alternatives we do recommend. (1) ·
'''Not recommended.''' Docs, Sheets, Slides, Gmail, and Drive with real-time
collaboration and 30GB-5TB of pooled cloud storage depending on tier. Included here for
comparison against [[OnlyOffice]] and [[Nextcloud]], the two self-hosted alternatives we
do recommend. (1) ·
Cloud VPS provider offering Linux virtual machines (Droplets)
suitable for self-hosting applications. Straightforward pricing, solid
documentation, and a large library of community tutorials make it a common
choice for technically capable teams standing up their own infrastructure. (1) ·
Cloud-based project and task management platform for assigning tasks,
tracking progress, and coordinating team workflows. (1) ·
End-to-end encrypted video meetings from Proton, built on the open
MLS (Messaging Layer Security) protocol. Swiss-based and subscription-funded,
positioned as a privacy-respecting drop-in replacement for Zoom. (1) ·
Free tip-jar platform with the lowest baseline fees of the group -- 0% on
simple one-time tips -- plus optional shop/membership features. No nonprofit registration or
business entity is required to sign up. (1) ·
Low-friction tip jar and membership platform for one-off support or recurring
monthly patronage. No nonprofit registration or business entity is required to sign up. (1) ·
Privacy-first WireGuard/OpenVPN provider run from Sweden. No email or personal
details at signup -- you get a random account number instead of a username/password. Owned by
Mullvad VPN AB (also behind the Mullvad Browser, built with the Tor Project). (1) ·
Privacy-focused WireGuard/OpenVPN provider operating from Gibraltar under IVPN
Limited since 2009. All client apps are open source under GPLv3. Signup requires no personal
information -- just the generated account ID. (1) ·
Subscription-based membership platform for ongoing monthly support -- better
suited to sustained operational funding than one-off campaigns. No nonprofit registration or
business entity is required to sign up; the org registers and operates like an individual
creator account. (1) ·
WireGuard/OpenVPN provider from Geneva, operated by Proton AG and majority-owned by
the non-profit Proton Foundation. Founded by scientists who met at CERN; same organisation as
Proton Mail. Every client app (Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS) is open source. (1)
usage notes:
None (13) ·
Choose the region closest to your primary users to minimize
latency. Enable automatic backups ($1.20/month at the entry tier) from the
start — restoring from a snapshot is far easier than rebuilding from scratch. (1) ·
Registration: no nonprofit status or business registration required -- sign up
and start collecting tips/memberships as an individual or org account. (1) ·
Registration: no nonprofit status or business registration required to sign up. (1) ·
Use Board view for kanban-style tracking across teams.
Guest access is available on paid plans for external collaborators. (1) ·
Zero-access encryption means Proton cannot read message content or hand
it over even under legal request -- worth flagging for teams handling sensitive
organizing communications. No self-hosting option; mail is hosted on Proton's own
infrastructure in Switzerland. (1)

Commercial Israeli-owned VPNs (Kape's ExpressVPN / CyberGhost / PIA /
ZenMate, Hola, Hotspot Shield) reintroduce exactly the operator you're trying to remove -- see
[[:Category:VPN]]. (1) ·
ExpressVPN, CyberGhost, PIA, and ZenMate are all owned by the
British-Israeli Kape Technologies (now a delisted black box); Hola VPN is Israeli and resold
user bandwidth. See [[:Category:VPN]] for the full ownership picture. (1) ·
For deplatform resistance, see [[BTCPay Server]] (the
only self-hostable option). The broader case against card gateways is covered on the
Finance&Accounting category page. (1) ·

Shield / Betternet are rejected on ownership grounds -- see [[:Category:VPN]]. (1) ·
Zoom and Google Meet are closed-source and not end-to-end encrypted by
default, with the provider able to access call data. For a fully self-hosted option, Jitsi Meet
on your own server keeps infrastructure in your hands (see [[:Category:Self Hosting]]). (1)
