No ads, Floss, data-friendly, net-neutrality -- connect on legal advice, admin, pr, ...
https://chatons.org/charte-et-manifeste "It is important that is legible, and people can ask questions."
it sounds like they do some kind of cloud-live-cd
"our goal is that you leave us" and go to the "kittens", find one close to you "so you can talk to them"
If it is free, you are the product? Eh, yes - there are donations (2000) and many more can use it. It is important
