#GoodbyeBigTech

It's great that Meta and Google have kindly directed me to look elsewhere for their replacements.
I had said goodbye to Microsoft and welcome to Linux around Windows 8, but today's turbulent world has made me rethink everything.
The first thing to go was Gmail - hello, Tuta!
Then Chrome - Hello, Vivaldi! Hello, Proton VPN!

(Parts 2 and 3 in the comments 👇)

This somewhat corny image depicts a tornado blowing away meta and google, behind a line of rock steady open-source apps.

After much thought, I've decided to bid farewell to all social media platforms that aren't part of the Fediverse. It's time to embrace a more open, decentralized, and community-driven digital space. Join me on this journey as I continue to share, connect, and grow on platforms like BlueSky and Mastodon. Let's build a better internet together!.

Vorige week schrijf ik op mijn blog "Why Nostr resonates". Deze blog is nu ook in het Nederlands verschenen op bitcoinfocus.nl/2023/11/02/278.

Can you recommend a lightweight fediverse app for pine64 pinephone? I'm gonna try diving in off my LineageOS-Android device for a week I think. I've been using fedilab.

Finally settled on Mobian Phosh and w/the phonephone keyboard it lasts more than 9 hours for me on a charge. Maybe you don't know but a follower has a suggestion? Is the browser a safe/good option?
