☕ Support

LibreFind is a free and open-source project developed by a student. While the app is free, the hosting servers cost money to keep running 24/7.

If you find this tool useful for reclaiming your digital privacy, please consider buying me a coffee. Your support goes directly toward:

  • Paying monthly server bills.
  • Keeping the database online and fast.
  • Fueling late-night coding sessions
