       @stux I have tried to put myself at a distance from Google & Facebook specifically. Still use Gmail, but want to move to ProtonMail at some point. I use DuckDuckGo for search now. It easily handles the 99% of my searches. I Google only in a pinch. I use Apple Mail and Maps instead of using Google apps. I use the app Friendly to interact with Facebook, Instagram and Twitter instead of their individual apps. I use Firefox for browsers. It's been at least a year and the uncanny coincidences stopped

       @misty So if you don’t use Safari on desktop, is there an issue? I’m just still on Monterey, unless there’s a patch for it too

       @CliffWade I still check it periodically to lurk. I no longer post or interact there.

       @NanoRaptor It's a good thing we were all wearing JNCO Jeans to fit those bad boys into our pockets in the early 2000s 😂

       @Cloudguy I don’t know you, but at the same time will use this opportunity to freshen up my Amazon security all the same knowing most people like yourself don’t sound the alarm without good reason 😬

       @tante Dropbox, the company that has always had the shittiest pricing tiers. I’m honestly so annoyed we use them at work when their plans are all so overkill. 3TB of storage per user when we have 20gb of files 😂

       @lowqualityfacts If Parks & Rec were a burrito, I would fall into a creek trying to save it, then claim I was mugged

       Am I the only one thinking it’s kind of a crazy pills approach to try and recreate #Reddit in the Fediverse? The best thing about Reddit is its micro-niche approach and having seen how poorly niche communities translated from Twitter to Mastodon, I’m not holding my breath. I started using Reddit in earnest in 2018 after having an account since 2006. I was able to join a subreddit about Ford C-Maxes, a very niche community. I like engaging in the #lastfm community there.

       Neither of those communities, and many other micro subs won’t ever materialize in the #Fediverse. There just isn’t a critical mass of users to form those niche communities. #Reddit has 52m daily active users and 430m active monthly. We’re so far off a point where any brand new service would come within a fraction of a userbase like that. I know everyone thinks federated decentralization is the future, but it also took Reddit almost 20 years to build to those numbers.

       @monocle @punkonbus1701 There was a few hilarious music captions this week. This one made me laugh.
