Tetrodot | Security-Focused Community Hosting

Mission

Community hosting without surveillance.

Tetrodot is being built as a better, more security-focused alternative to Disroot: a volunteer-run, anti-corporate service provider for people who want to leave eavesdropping, tracking, and ad-funded infrastructure behind.

Security before scale

OpenBSD is the foundation, paired with small services, conservative defaults, least-privilege separation, careful updates, and recovery plans that are treated as part of the service, not an afterthought.

Encryption as a default

The service choices favor strong transport security, encrypted protocols where they exist, careful key handling, and configurations that avoid collecting data simply because the server technically can.

Privacy from surveillance

Tetrodot is for people who want usable community infrastructure without ads, behavioral tracking, data resale, or growth metrics turning into product decisions.

Free speech, narrow rules

The project is not meant to be a partisan activism platform or an opinion gatekeeper. Rules should be limited to keeping the services legal, reliable, and protected from spam, harassment, malware, and abuse.

Non-profit community service

The goal is sustainable infrastructure, not extraction: core services designed to remain free, support shaped by the people who rely on them, and decisions made for users instead of advertisers or investors.

Current status

Infrastructure is actively coming online.

Tetrodot is being built part-time by a single volunteer. The first wave is intentionally small: password vaults, IRC bouncers, calendars and contacts, XMPP chat, and static sites, brought online only as the security and recovery story is ready.
