Here's my #Disenshittification journey so far:
Twitter > Mastodon & Bluesky
Instagram > PixelFed
Spotify > SoundCloud
Amazon Prime > host giveaway events, thrift, shop at fam owned
Diff browsers > Waterfox
G Maps > OrganicMaps
Gmail > Proton
Google Cloud > Local harddriveI deleted a lot of digital stuff, files etc. Installing the Material file manager on my Xiaomi/Android phone was a BIG upgrade there.
Tried to get Fdroid or Aurora, but they don't show in my Google Play..?

@cobalt123 thx for the links and response @fedipete!
I read and commented on @pluralistic's latest take already. Truly sorry to tell you, but Cory and I defer in the evaluation about the main reasons why people are captive, (actually they only feel that they are captivated) and how to properly react.
So, as I got this for now, "captive userbase" is people that went into a room and are knocking on it's wide open door sobering that they have no other choice than being violated day and night inside that open door prison they feel captivated in.
- Cory considers my position unemphatic, I consider speaking truth to imprisoned minds the first step to enable them to free themselves.
- He considers to speak in favor of investing money to loosen their chains an act of mercy, I consider it an act of improving their chains and making them feeling free in their newly elected open door prison, prolonging and improving the locked in effect.
- He considers it useful and a smart move to speak in favor and putting his name on the line, same as @mmasnick does, investing money to create another open door in the new walled open door prison garden called #bluesky, I prefer to invest every cent to show them that the gate is open and that there are plentiful gardens out there in the free as in freedom #freeWeb called the #fediVerse we build and improve for them every day.
"Captive users" is synonym to self imprisoned masochists who actually love the masters house, their house.
¡peace!
Shall they live happily ever after in their self inflicted imagined algorithmic prison.btw
I definitely had preferred a simple answer in your own words, I know how to google and search wikipedia, there are lot's of reasons to ask people directly, one without any doubt is: -

Thought you'd like this take on AI discourse. -
Somewhere in Norway there's a metal band called "Radium Suppository."
I don't know if this is true; I just really, really want it to be.

This week in #disenshittification :
Finally cut the Gmail cord and moved to #fastmailTook a few hours of futzing with DNS settings at my registrar, getting to know #thunderbird , and figuring out what to use for calendar because unlike on the dektop #Thunderbird doesn't include the calendar on #android .
Eventually landed on #Etar synced to #fastmail via #DAVx .Setup was quite smooth. Really the biggest time sink was in deciding what to use.
This was one of the big steps towards liberating myself from Google's clutches. I'm very glad it's done.

@TomSeppert @golemwire oh, snac is great. It's the platform that is powering #FediMeteo

Meanwhile, I'm preparing the outline for the talk I'll be giving at @devconf in July:
"Today I’m here to talk to you about FediMeteo, freedom, sharing, knowledge, and… a scam."
Stay tuned!

RE: https://poliversity.it/@devconf/116549350437622576
La DevConf sarà un evento davvero interessante, ricco di interventi stimolanti.
Il programma prevede argomenti a tutto tondo, con una particolare attenzione al Fediverse e alle tecnologie di comunicazione libera.
Personalmente presenterò #FediMeteo, raccontando come è nato, perché, come è fatto, a chi è rivolto, alla libertà dietro il progetto stesso. E ad una truffa.
Stay tuned!
