    Switched from Google to #Proton a year ago. Not a single complaint. Actually, quite the opposite.

    Awesome find: public domain books, carefully edited digitally. They pick quality titles, and the editing makes reading even better. @standardebooks is going to be a big deal; it&amp;#39;s a fantastic initiative! 🤩📚 #books #reading #FreeEbook https://standardebooks.org/

    The first issue of Choosing Europe starts with a simple question: Why keep our personal #email inside big-tech ecosystems when solid European alternatives exist and actually respect our privacy? It also features a selection of European films, albums and podcasts worth discovering.

    People are tired of multiple subscriptions that often go unused. Buying a vinyl record or a DVD encourages conscious consumption and higher-quality leisure activities.

    What a shame and yet so true: build a great service, give it away for free, make it massive, then enshittify it. That is exactly what Big Tech does. Here a funny video: &amp;quot;A day in the life of an enshittificator&amp;quot; https://youtu.be/T4Upf_B9RLQ #digitaleconomy #bigtechalternatives #Tech #bigtech
