#degoogle

Instagram, Tellonym & TikTok Accounts gelöscht, die Tage folgen dann Snapchat & WhatsApp.

Edit: WhatsApp & Snapchat sind auch weg.
Jetzt muss ich nur noch irgendwie Reddit & Spotify loswerden, um ICloud kümmere ich mich nun.

In this interview, former Google CEO said:
"We know where you are. We know where you’ve been. We can more or less know what you’re thinking about.”

Do you think Google has gotten better or worse?

#lechat app from #mistralai stopped working. 😮 It told me to reinstall it from Play store (it was from Aurora). So much for #degoogle ing. 🤔

I think I'm slowly starting to #DeGoogle.

Did you get the email about Google Workspace price increases today?

If you don't want to pay extra for AI slop, you're in the same boat as me. Shifting off Google isn't a trivial thing.

What is trivial? click the "unhappy face" on the email, and give them some constructive feedback. Tell them you don't want the AI slop.

In het kader van #degoogle ben ik alvast begonnen met het #unappsen oftewel #apps vervangen door een bladwijzer in de browser. Ik doe het stapje voor stapje. Hoe minder #apps hoe makkelijker een overstap naar een #degoogled device 😉

Nextcloud or Immich?

Ich habe einige zusätzliche DNS Provider zum hinzugefügt. Danke @marsmux für den Tipp mit der Liste bei @kuketzblog .

Wenn ihr weitere DNS Provider habt, die in den Monitoring Test sollen, gebt mir gern Bescheid. Wichtig ist, dass sie DNS auf Port 53 bereitstellen. kann leider kein DNS-over-TLS o.ä. monitoren.

- I moved to a new country because I didn't want to pay my taxes to a dictatorship.
- I replaced the software I use to #degoogle and #unplugtrump
- I left my old Mastodon instance because I didn't trust it anymore after seeing attempts to make intolerance seem okay.

Saying no can be tough and uncomfortable, but sometimes it's necessary. It's not just about personal freedom. Turning a bling eye to oppressive tendencies is a slippery slope that undermines the #freedom of all.

I'm exploring Google maps alternatives for car navigation. Today I tried TomTom. First impression: pretty clear display, cool visualisation of events on route, but some of the map data is awfully outdated - for example, it shows a car park that ceased to exist years ago.

What other Android apps should I try? Live traffic info is a must-have.

Repairers face an ultamatim: lick Google’s boots or create e-waste. How can local govs fix this problem?
