1 Launch and Intentions
2
3 Hey, my name's Cernodile, the system administrator for based.quest and its services.
4 I started this website with the intent of creating a sane, perhaps based, space on the
5 internet where you are not being spied or tracked on. I will be offering services that
6 help you achieve sovereignty over your data.

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

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