You just said that you sacrificed a week of vacation to reduce dependence on big tech. This is exactly what I’m talking about. Some people choose to spend effort on tech independence. Some people focus on veganism. Some people make sacrifices for the environment. Etc. These are all choices.
Not really. I’d rather not have had to go through that and instead I’d rather have relaxed during my vacation. In the past this would have been possible after work hours. Now I’m so fucking wasted after work, I prefer to mindlessly rewatch Deep Space 9. I just don’t have the capacity to regain control of my life. Big tech is forcing their shit upon us all and it’s very difficult to escape all that. The regular person will likely not have the know-how to do this, so they’re stuck with what is being spoon fed to us all.
