Here's a year-long programme to get yourself off Big Tech products, step-by-step.

Many here will already have done this, but please share with your friends and family who are still yet to take that journey.

Let's stop feeding the (data) beast! This movement requires huge numbers of people to do it, to be really effective, so all upvoting is appreciated 😀

Give me the 2027 list, I've been done with these for years. 😂
