Privacy pack

I use tuta mail and tuta calendar for mail and calendar, Vivaldi as browser on laptop, and Firefox on android. Bitwarden as password manager and bitwarden auth as 2fa. Use obsidian for notes and appstore is aurora store and droidify, I use archlinux. And for "cloud" storage, actually a backup I use This USB drive not cloud Buf works for me. Still kinda dependent on proprietary messaging platforms, but I have 1 friend on signal. Also I am trying to replace YouTube with fmhy.net not exactly YouTube alternative, but has so many resources for free to study, educate myself, or just watch something out of amusement.

I agree that everyone should use signal, but do you not see how this argument works better in other people's favor? Youre the one demanding that people change their habits and their app of choice in order to stay in communication with you. "I wont use facebook messenger or google messages" 'well i guess an app is more important to you than staying in contact with your friends and family'

    'Thoughtful' im not going to waste my time on irritable people who are angry for no reason and can't see things from other people's perspectives. Like i said, o ise sognal and think everyone should, but from the perspective of your loved ones, YOU'RE the one choosing an app preference over the relationship not them. Youre asking them to make a change and adopt one of your preferences, and setting an ultimatum that you wont talk to them unless they do. I think its silly still, but thats how theyre going to see it, not the other way around.

    they may be angry but i don't think they are wrong. everyone makes their own choices, and they still have phone and sms. none of us are locked into big tech systems, even tho they want us to think we are.
