Launch and Intentions

Hey, my name's Cernodile, the system administrator for based.quest and its services.
I started this website with the intent of creating a sane, perhaps based, space on the
internet where you are not being spied or tracked on. I will be offering services that
help you achieve sovereignty over your data.

To kick things off, I've launched an [Invidious instance](https://iv.based.quest). Invidious
allows you to watch YouTube videos without actually ever interfacing with Google. If you find
Invidious tedious to use, you can use it as an API and pick a front-end of your liking (e.g. 
FreeTube).

I will not be moving my [Searx instance](https://searx.cernodile.com) neither my [Matrix](https://matrix.org)
homeserver, they will continue to be available on cernodile.com. This domain will continue to
house anything that I haven't on cernodile.com. I am thinking of trying out [PeerTube](https://joinpeertube.org) and
maybe if I can work out GDPR nuances, [Dendrite Matrix homeserver](https://github.com/matrix-org/dendrite).


Thanks for reading,
- Cernodile
