@FerranMClaudin @manuelmlm3 Y ¿para qué quieren una cuenta de Google si Google colabora precisamente con el genocidio en Gaza? 🤨

Der Digitale Exitus: Warum Europa jetzt die Ketten sprengen muss

Ein Manifest für die Souveränität

Wir stehen am Abgrund einer technologischen Leibeigenschaft. Während wir uns einbilden, in einer freien Demokratie zu leben, haben wir die Schlüssel zu unserem Haus, unseren Gedanken und unserer Wirtschaft längst an eine Handvoll Milliardäre im Silicon Valley übergeben. Wir sind keine Nutzer mehr. Wir sind Datensätze. Wir sind digitale Leibeigene in einem feudalen System, das keine Grenzen kennt und keine Moral. Es ist Zeit, die rosarote Brille abzusetzen. Es ist Zeit, das Betriebssystem unserer Gesellschaft neu zu installieren. [Mehr lesen...]

Time to either switch to Linux phones, if my pocket can afford, or Nokia Symbian.
Best would be, walk to the bank branch and do stuff. Let them justify their salaries as well.
Moreover, for Internet Banking, I will force my bank to give me the physical device again. I do not have a smart phone, so deal with it will be my stance soon.

@kde
We should be boycotting anything google does. The things they are doing in parallel by introducing fucked up stuff is more than enough to avoid them and their summer of code.

That is the only way freedom can be achieved.

5 16 GB price has almost doubled, now costs as much as the rest of the PC, GPU prices starting to rise again, NVMe prices through the roof ... Hobby market is once again being destroyed, PCs and gaming machines becoming unaffordable ... all so that Scam Altman can continue his scam a little longer. This is corporate greed at its worst ...

Power users, sideloading. All that says is, normal or day to day users will not be allowed to sideload, install from other sources. Needing internet access to verify. Bunch of crap. If you want to rule, just plain open state it, and ask everyone to bow down to you. That will be more fitting to your nonsense of silently making things worse for users. #boycottgoogle #fuckyougoogle #android #sideloading #mydevicemywish #foogle #google

My recommendation: Forget UA spoofing. You're in an abusive relationship with an MNC. Any opportunity you provide them will be used to abuse your #freedom, #privacy and #security. Never adjust yourself to accommodate them. It's a game you can't win.

Just abandon #Chrome and other chrome based browsers, #GoogleMeet and any other #Google services. Migrate to an ethical service provider. It's always worth it in the long run.

Well, this was the third day of my unplanned YouTube boycott. I didn't use YouTube at all, not even YouTube Music.

My son *did* use YouTube on the big TV while we were having dinner, and I even watched - but I didn't log into my own YouTube account, and when I was done with dinner I went back upstairs.

I think my next project is to document all of my YTM playlists and download any songs I'm missing.

It wasn't until I started boycotting YouTube that I started to realize how many posts here on Mastodon include YouTube videos. I didn't click on any of them. I favorited a few where I thought the text was good, but I didn't boost any of them as I thought that would seem hypocritical of me.

Does that sound pompous? Probably. Oh well.

I didn't post as much today as on the last few days; sorry about that! I'll try to think of things tonight that I can write and post tomorrow. Maybe some lost media of one sort or another.

Good night!

What nonsense.
The reason is being stated as: to align and give more stable stuff. Really! So all these years you have given unstable releases every quarter and misaligned ones, right? More reason to ban foogle a**.

This is day two of my unplanned YouTube strike, and once again I was able to get through the day without opening YouTube at all.

Partly I did that by spending more time on Mastodon; it really helps that I'm seeing a lot more activity and responses here. Thanks for that, everybody!

That actually makes me want to write more here. I suspect that I should be trying to take next steps to help make FediMeet a reality, but I don't know what to do. I did find an online resource about creating new Fediverse project, but I haven't started reading it yet. Any suggestions would be very welcome.

I wonder what I would need to learn? Coding? Stuff about servers? I have a fair amount of basic computer knowledge, and I took a basic class in Turbo Pascal in college, but that was decades ago. Still, I'm willing to try to learn. Again, I'm wide open to suggestions!

And with that I'm going to call it a night. Good night!

Just spent the day setting up some devops scripts for bringing up a branded and secured self-hosted Jitsi Meet video conferencing server droplet on digitalocean for business meetings for the FOSH accessibility non-profit, @bce .

Die Antwort muss weiter greifen wie Palantir. - MS, Meta, Google, X, Amazon etc. ersetzen, boykottieren was auch immer.

@javierarmentia Bueno, quizás es que hay que dejar de usar "El Tubo" de una vez (y dejar de publicar en él). Por si lo de Gaza no fuera suficiente... #AlbaneseReport #BoycottGoogle #BoycottYoutube
