Just deleted my Discord account. It wasn't an issue since I have no friends and never use it but still... it's the principle of the thing?

    Don't let others downplay the "quality" of your protest. "It doesn't really matter, does it?" is the #1 enemy of protests.

    True.

    I deleted reddit, for that matter, and working on degoogling, which is a really hard one.

    At this point, it's not really protest. It's just that, despite being crazy lazy, there are no more excuses. This government actually is hunting down people who dissent online. No more talk of conspiracy theories. The facts are in.

    If you have a budget, I highly recommend getting a Synology NAS. Synology are a Taiwanese company with decent reliable enthusiast and SME software.

    They have a bit of a reputation for overcharging for hard drives with their logos on it, but otherwise it can do all the things you need, pretty much turn key solutions for cloud services like mail server, office collaboration suite, cloud drive, team chat and so much more.
