d:t:f is a pre-launch initiative aimed at cultivating capability in the grassroots, to resist Big Tech thro digital contra-infrastructure(ing) at community level. The Special Sauce will be a novel gift-funding recipe embracing foundations, municipalities and crowdfunding. This is not a pitch for EU 'digital sovereignty' budgets, per se.

Its not so much about new code, more about solid rollout of existing FLOSS. But the focus on the phone, and escaping the duopoly of phone OS, is very underdeveloped.
