I wonder if there is a group of developers give priority to privacy and open source but still use service and products provided by big corps like google, fb etc… I can never imagine myself using their products and still complaining about their lack of privacy tbh.

    I begrudgingly have these accounts because I kind of have to. I’m in university, and almost all my classmates use Facebook Messenger and Google Docs for group projects, so if I don’t use them, I can’t complete assignments. I’ve tried suggesting other platforms but no one else seems interested.

    I don’t use these services for programming, other than GitHub because it seems every other programmer uses it so I have to if I want to contribute to open source projects, but I’ve been planning on mirroring my own open source code to better platforms, but I haven’t decided on which one. I don’t host my websites ob AWS, Azure or Google Cloud though, and as long as I get to decide, I never will.

      My rule of thumb is that if you’re on GitHub, you don’t get my contributions. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
