The dark times are here, but there are ways in which we can thrive in the digital wasteland

My thoughts on the #futureoftheinternet, #digitalfreedom, #freedomofinformation, and #accessibility–with some #FOSS and #anarchy thrown in, of course.

I absolutely welcome comments and feedback offered in good will from the informed minds gathered in this particular digital space #Lemmy #Fediverse #keepsmesane

    Ive paid for private email hosting for years now, and run a bunch of services on a pi now. Google is almost completely out of my life, and my fb has been deactivated for years. I’m not kicking any corporate walls down, but it feels good to be the change I want to see. 🤷‍♂️

      I honestly think that’s what we can do: start to build free, parallel structures and attract folks to join us. We can’t outspend Google but we can opt out of their ecosystem to some degree or another both collectively and individually.
