So, I swapped to SoundCloud from any other platform, because other platfroms suck and on SoundCloud I get more art made by humans rather than corporate slop, or at least that's my goal. I'm not big on music, so I'm fresh in the platform, but it's easier for me to find anything new than it was before, and I hate the "same old".

I also got Droidify to replace the apps I can with non-corporate, as Google started pushing their ads in all the default apps they provide (I wish that was illegal - fuck the fucking ads in the gallery app).

I wanted to delete Linkedin, but I found myself forced to use it, as I am job seeking, and it's sadly the best platform for job offers (still bad, but job websites are fucking terrible). I wish it had an option to opt out of the social media part.

I moved to Proton, but that was a while ago. Outlook and Gmail suck.

I also swapped to Firefox a while ago after using Vivaldi, because fuck Google.

I am personally not a privacy oriented person, but the way big corpos are moving to major enshittification due to acknowledging own market domination is stark. I also don't like corpo slop (e.g. music), so I appreciate being able to find man-made art.

And on that topic, I abadonned Google search for Ecosia, because fuck Google's AI bullshit.

My de-corpoing is a very loosely applied term, as you see.

Oh, and obviously I abadonned Reddit a while ago.

    Degoogled up to YT which I only watch in duckgoduck browser because my mind breaks from the ads

    Firefox + uBlock Origin works for me on YT without ads.
