~vern is a queer-run non-commercial tilde and collection of web (and non-web) services. This means we are a community open for sharing, engaging, participating and creating free (as in freedom) software for everyone, without exceptions.
~vern also has a pubnix, that is, a public-access *NIX server for our members, that runs Guix System for improved freedom.
All our servers run free GNU/Linux distributions.

We also host Tor and I2P versions of most of these services.
