List of "what not to use so much in life" lol
If you want more of this type of list either say here and I'll re-draft this post or click follow (or both!)
It should be a good list almost from looking at one persons account but what you might help seeing list in one post as "not these things"....
███████████████████
AI services (images / shortcuts)-
perhaps using you as data point and the usual - "it's ok to use until we turn on you and it aint good but too late by then"
YouTube link without filtering e.g. A good filtered link is below:
(invidious links for Ytb):
https://invidious.fdn.fr/watch?v=R3ptZ1W-FRA
Anti-capitalist media on Capitalist mediums (paradoxical stuff or just plain badpractices)
Zoom instead of Jitsi Meet
(although only recently it got way better and yea Zoom did get it together faster than open source)
Amazon for buying things
Talking about privacy and having it on advert-filled / pixel tracking site
Using or buying new products and Tech, only to forget the same happens with everything (shitification or withdrawing / rug-pulling / monopolising / power and control / holding you ransom etc)
Turning non-electric or simple things into electric and sapping more time, electricity, usage and setup of devices... etc just for basic tasks (industry encouraging "complification" which reminds me of "Californication" song lol)
Free stuff with sign-ups and registering needed (needs to be most open while able to kick out people IF really needed but isn't usually and just another gate or information scraping device to need people to signup... AND to 3rd party tools which means 4thparty/5th party/6th party data)
Playing war games, as if it's not war. (don't mind 10 mins but look at all this 'meat' heads playing endlessly and your kids too
Saying you don't like something but *never* backing up data to shift off that platform... unless FreeSchool is there in person standing over and then it gets done!!! (with consent but like pulling teeth since people are so invested and or lazy) :)
Using one thing to justify another - when 1 thing stands on it's own either as it's own value or entity without comparison or inferring it's competitive to anything else!
Encouraging people to use apps for simple things and not knowing what apps are able to do outside of what you think they do (HINT is the permission they ask at beginning and 'partners' they syndicate with... tells you all you need to know not to install)... ask me if you need better apps
Talking about things only as a victim (very allowable but as adult got to put up your own pants and run with something better and look spend time only blaming)
