Welcome!
We're not a company. We're not selling you anything. We're building parallel systems — the same things corporations offer, just without the data collection, the nickel and diming, the data leaks, the identity theft.
Howdy partner.
DFC is one cowboy (me), two folks who jumped on the boat, and a pile of salvaged hardware waiting to get back in service. That's the whole team right now.
We're not a company. We're not selling you anything. We're building parallel systems — the same things corporations offer, just without the data collection, the nickel and diming, the data leaks, the identity theft. The Cowboy finds it, builds it, shares it, and makes it user-friendly and accessible so that like-minded folks have somewhere to actually go.
You don't have to leave the system immediately. That's what this Patreon is for. Subscribe to support driving the mission. Give us the time and resources to build, fight, engineer, and win — for not just you, but us.
Because this isn't about owning everything or getting yours in before everybody else loses. It's about community. Building strong, supportive networks that aren't predatory like literally everything we deal with today.
Read "Why We're Building". Find the part that hits. If it does, stick around. If not, no hard feelings.
Three people today. The door's open. Come build.
