  • Just quit, these platform thrive on user generated content while selling your data and now they want money from you so you continue to create content for them.

    All because they make you believe that you NEED them to stay in contact and up to date. In reality it’s much nicer to speak with friends personally, show a few pics and talk about your/their experience.

    Too often when i still used that social media crap people would just cut me off with “yeah i’ve seen that already on fb,insta etc.” and no experience shared.

    Being off social media, as weird as that sounds, made me feel more social and it’s more fun to interact with ppl again.


  • I cancelled netflix cause i was barely watching and the only reason i kept it was because we were 3 friends sharing it. We pay for 4 screens so we expect that to keep working which it didn’t. So we cancelled cause we spoke about it and nobody really watched a lot.

    In the end unfortunately for Netflix it is worth it, just look at their stock which is going up again, which means more people bought the extra subscription rather than cancelling.

    Sad times but if the majority of people don’t go against enshittification they will keep squeezing as much money out of everyone as long as it is profitable







  • Telegram by default does not send end-to-end encrypted messages (only in secret chats) and thus can be considered very unsafe as the server owner can literally read all your messages.

    They give the user the impression that they are similar secure to e2e encrypted messengers but really are not since most users just start a normal chat.

    This also means that, in theory, surveillance is very possible and likely as the russians are not really to be trusted by anyone. Privacy nightmare.
