Jitsi - Open-source and self-hosted video conference platform. You can even try it directly on their website.
IPFS - A distributed file sharing technology which is wonderful for file or site hosting (edit: wether it is uncensorable is open for debate)
Rust - A programming language and a powerful compiler that creates compiled memory-safe programs and can be used nearly everywhere
Fedora + KDE - A combination of a stable modern OS and a complete desktop environment

Never heard of it...
Love me some Jitsi. The app, and website, make it easy to just start a secure, anonymous call with pals. No weird AI models running in the background like Teams or Zoom.
Uncensorable? Seriously doubt it.
Resilient to censoring? Believable.
Recently they officially added a module to censor stuff on an individual instance basis...
No one ever talks about Rust...
The fact that the company Valve went with KDE instead of GNOME for there popular linux device seems to indicate that it is at least stable. I could get some user testomonies on /c/Linux about KDE if you want?
Do you just go around looking for KDE users to argue with?
