SAY GOODBYE TO BIG COMPANIES WITH THESE ALTERNATIVES

Throughout the years, we have been relying on big companies like Google, Microsoft, Meta and others to give us access to their products to use our computers and phones, communicate on the online web, and store our files. However, as things have gotten worse with the years and the rise of gen-AI only making things worse, people are starting to question if they can even move to new services. However, the journey can be hard and there are so many options that non-tech savvy people are going lose patience and give up. That is why I made this long and comprehensive list of mostly open-source alternatives to different things from computer OS, social media, to even TV. Many things are easy to move to, others are for more tech-savvy people, and this list doesn't even have all of the available options in any category! However, this is a great first step into trying new things and to slowly move away from big tech. You don't need to do it all at once, go step by step, decide if there are some services you can't stop using and which ones could use a switch and have fun!

What is Ibis Wiki?

Ibis is a federated encyclopedia which uses the ActivityPub protocol, just like Mastodon or Lemmy. Users can create, browse, edit articles and use many other features. If you want to start a wiki for a TV series, a video game, or an open source project, then Ibis is for you! You can register on an existing instance or install it on your own server. Then you can start editing on the topic of your choice, and connect to other Ibis instances for different topics. Federation ensures that articles get mirrored across many servers, and can be read even if the original instance goes down. Ibis is fully open source to make future enshittification impossible.

Features

  • Fully functional wiki with article creation, reading, editing and edit history
  • Conflict handling in case of concurrent edits
  • Articles have discussion page with nested comments
  • Fully federated, all actions work locally as well as with remote Ibis instances
  • Simple installation, only a single binary or Docker image with Postgres database
  • Snappy editor with live preview and Markdown support
  • Various Markdown extensions like LaTeX, table of contents, footnotes, spoilers
  • Dark mode, so that you can write articles from the beach or from your basement
  • Explore page to discover interesting articles
  • Fast user interface with server-side rendering based on WebAssembly
  • Notification system to get notified about new articles, edits, and comments
  • In the future Ibis will be fully federated with Mastodon, Lemmy and other Fediverse platforms
