I want this so bad. Although in practice I imagine none of this will fit together well with the YouTube interface or with a custom desktop background.
Tenderizer78@lemmy.mlto DeGoogle Yourself@lemmy.ml•Your guide to moving away from Gmail and finding a new email service!71·7 days agoI considered switching from Proton to Fastmail, because Proton seems to run slow in Australia. Immediately stopped considering once I realized they delete your account if you don’t pay for 6 months (and by extension, you’ll lose all your connected accounts).
So if you’re homeless, arrested, deported, or in a coma and come out of it you’ll end up losing your entire digital life.

No, we don’t have free will. HOWEVER, I don’t think that arguement will hold up in court.

Tried looking up how to bake wholemeal bread with just plain wholemeal flour and white bread flour (I can’t buy wholemeal bread flour at my supermarket). AI really is everywhere and it’s making the internet useless.
Guess I could’ve done the before:202X trick.
Haven’t switched from YouTube, but I’ve blocked recommendations (and auto-muted ads) with a browser extension for I think a few years now. I wouldn’t say it’s necessarily made my life better, but it has made my engagement with YouTube better.
I’ve been deleting my subscriptions one by one, if the channels don’t consistently post stuff I find valuable with the hopes of eventually removing YouTube from my life entirely.
The way Reddit fosters echo-chambers probably makes it the worst in my book.

Unfortunately Qwant is free. I really want to pay a one-off fee to remove ads but that’s not an option. It’s also less feature-rich than Kagi (can’t hide certain domains from search, for example). Also, it blocks me from using it whenever I set my VPN to singapore because they haven’t set up ads there yet.
What makes Qwant noteworthy is that it uses it’s own web-crawler. And unlike Mojeek this web-crawler is half-way decent, although it is weirdly common for pornography to come up. Most other search engines are based on either Google or Bing.
Doing socialization anyway … is the therapist-backed approach.
Nihilism works wonders I guess. So does not going outside.

I considered Proton Drive but stopped when I realized that if I did then access to my email would be contingent on keeping up to date with my subscription, where it wouldn’t on the free tier.
