Big tech has a majority share of users' data #1

Big tech has a majority share of users' personal data, applications, and digital identity. This is a bug which losos and other projects are meant to fix.

When using the web today, the vast majority of apps store your data on their servers, under their control. Free and open alternatives where users own their data are rarely offered.

Instead, users should have a personal operating system that runs anywhere — browser, phone, desktop — where their data stays on their own storage, their apps are panes they choose, and their identity is their own.

Non-free platforms concentrate control of personal data among a few companies, restrict user sovereignty, and create lock-in. A linked, open operating system enables community collaboration, privacy by default, and access to tools for everyone.
