Q3 2025

Progress Update

• Big UI/UX Improvements: Beginner Privacy got the much-needed UI and UX improvements, so it looks a lot cleaner and more modern on all screen sizes now.
• Privacy News Page: A news page was launched with great success—it runs on its own and fetches the latest data breaches, security, and privacy news.
• Community Development: We hit our goal with over 50 members on SimpleX, but it’s still pretty quiet in the group chat, so we’ll focus more on engaging folks there. We also picked up a couple of new followers on social media, and we’ll post content more regularly.

Next Steps

1. Contributors

• We’re still looking to get some contributors to help with improving docs, articles, feature requests, and bug reports on the site.

2. Spreading The Word

• Keep spreading the word about privacy and why people should care about it, and let the privacy community know Beginner Privacy exists.

3. Beginner Privacy+

• We’ll discuss and plan a premium subscription for Beginner Privacy in Q4, though it won’t be the top priority.

Finances

• Current Costs:
  • Website: Free (Hosted with GitHub Pages)
  • Domain: $15.99/year
• Cost Strategy: We’ll keep expenses minimal, sticking to only the essential stuff.

Closing Notes

Growth will be gradual, with a focus on sustainability. We’ll share updates on community progress and spreading the word in Q4.
