@EherVielleicht the sauce for the film/drama actually lol

@EherVielleicht save us all a few clicks and te us the sauce of this

@bytor9 yes it can be tricky.

But I really don’t have a Google, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon or F*ckbook account nor use any of their services. Occasionally once in a year I might visit if given a link but that’s pretty much it.

As for a list, I might launch a blog soon. Follow me on Mastodon for that! Meanwhile, here are 2 great lists-

1. https://www.privacytools.io
2. https://www.privacyguides.org/en/

You’d want to use FOSS software as much as possible!

@TootSweet Its said a modern human can’t live without using Google, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon and f*ckbook.
They dominate that much of our lives.

Wanted to change this notion. So I don’t use a single Big Tech service. Why? How about-

1. Their monopoly which stifles innovation
2. Their potential influence which can meddle in anything from politics to even your day to day life decisions
3. Worst of all, their privacy record
4. Addiction problems, especially in kids

Hope that’s good enough

@ophy thanks for not being rude about it.

I did mention Sync. Mastodon has word limits after all so couldnt fit all in 1 post. Here’s my post right after this one- https://mastodon.social/@abcxyz/110632697269529190

As for Boost, that was announced a few days AFTER my post. Yes I didnt edit it because there was the word limit and I also like to believe my post played some part in making the devs consider ;)

There is a reason why I used the word “ALMOST”. All my posts are heavily researched :D
