In the last week:

I started using Syncthing. I was using cloud storage as a way of copying files from one device to another. Syncthing is so much better.

I signed up with Mullvad VPN yesterday.

Deleted my Surfshark account today which I signed up with over two years ago when I didn’t care about privacy.

Finally convinced my sister to start using Signal.

    I’ve been using signal for a long time and managed to pull my family and close friends with me (I don’t know how but fuck yeah).

    I use pihole on my home network and mobile with wireguard. I blocked all meta / twitter / google / amazon domains.

    I host my own instance of searxng.

    I deleted all my content on Reddit and kept my account to delete restored comments / posts. I ask them to stop restoring my content under GDPR “right to be forgotten” and am waiting the 30 days delay to report them to the authorities with the proofs I gather.

    I blocked threads.com threads.net on my mastodon account.

    I live a fucking hell but it feels great messing up with big tech. Fuck them.
