I’m in the midst of eliminating anything from my life that is connected to big tech. I’m going to delete my Amazon, and Google Accounts. I already deleted my Facebook. I’m working on getting my purchases downloaded and converted from Amazon as of writing this.

I’m going to get rid of Reddit as well. Sadly reddit has become super contaminated with censorship, and that is one of the hardest platforms for me to leave. It must be done though, i can no longer support their platform. Gmail will probably be the last thing to go. Already switched email services and i’m trying to get everything moved over. Years of connecting services to Gmail leaves me in a tangled mess.

I didn’t have a point really. I just wanted to tell people who might appreciate, and solidify my actions in my own mind. I’m trying to create a new self identity in a privacy focused environment.

    MicroG supports exposure notifications! You could replace Google services with MicroG and only activate the exposure notifications and it’ll be like almost having a non-Google phone all over again.
