Our online world is rapidly ‘enshittifying’. How do we stand up against it?

Yup the more people leave social the better.

Don't be scared to tell others why you are leaving. I am clear, I am done with a device influencing how i think. I am a grown up human with my own brain...it sounds condescending, i think I am ok with that.

Also when people complain about services...ask if they have considered alternatives, ask if they really need that service, ask how much of their work time goes towards paying for a service that clearly disrespects them.

There is a lot of crap we don't need, and we make ourself tired working to pay for all the crap, that really does not make you happy....once people realise that it can usually inspire a shift.
