Hi HN,

I'm the founder of United Humanity, a volunteer-driven, public domain (CC0) project aimed at aiding humanity's betterment by focusing on capability-building rather than traditional aid. We believe poverty often stems from lack of tools, knowledge, and connections, so we're building open-source solutions to remove those barriers.

Key components:

-Humanity Chat/Network: A federated, end-to-end encrypted platform using Ed25519 identities. Features include accountless access, voice/video calls, threaded replies, message search, streaming with PiP, friend codes, an asset library, and 11 hub tabs. It's PWA-installable as a desktop app, with no tracking.

-Project Universe: A free game teaching practical skills like homesteading, agriculture, building, health, and survival to empower self-sufficiency.

-The Humanity Accord: A revisable set of civilizational principles for cross-cultural cooperation.

Everything is released under CC0—no permissions needed, it's for everyone. Started after my 2017 near-death experience, which clarified the need for tools that foster self-help and community.

We're looking for contributors: writers, designers, developers, educators, translators. Join the chat to discuss or help out. Feedback welcome—how can we improve federation or the educational game?

Thanks!
