How to Gently Move Your Non-Tech-Savvy Parents Away from American Big Tech (Without Starting a Family War) in c/buyeuropean@feddit.uk
[–] Kkk2237pl@lemmy.world 5 points 10 hours ago

They are impacted more than you think. My mom uses chat gpt more often than I did.

Facebook, messenger, google as default browser and search engine. Even when she search for something she chooses „google” app instead of browser Google Chrome- so its harder to switch her to ecosia ;)

I see how much crap my dad and mom watch from facebook stories. Misinformation is on the other level there… (talking from Poland perspective, we have russian propaganda in our socials)

My mom relies on office documents. We wanted replace office with libreoffice and that was painful for her :(

I gave her laptop with libreoffice and she still prefered to use old laptop with old office license

Hey everyone,

I’ve been thinking a lot about how to help my parents reduce their reliance on American Big Tech (Google, Facebook, Apple, Amazon, Microsoft, etc.). They’re not tech-savvy, and I don’t want to overwhelm them or make them feel like I’m forcing a radical change. At the same time, I’m concerned about privacy, data collection, and the monopolistic practices of these companies.

Any ideas? First of all I thought about ecosia, I see that it returns more similar results to google than Qwant.

I want to buy them Threema licence.

I installed Le Chat as chatgpt replacement, moved some documents to Synology Nas

What’s next?

How mapy learn about current traffic? If I have app installed on the phone, does it help in any way? Or I should have app opened and in navigation mode?

I noticed that even I was driving one route, there was no information on the other device

What is the best way of migrating google docs documents to Synology or Proton?

Is there any other way than doing it manually?

Edit: i found solution- you can ask for google takeout. It exports in office formats

Smartwatch (lemmy.world)
 

Looking for a European smartwatch for health monitoring - what are your thoughts?

Hi everyone! I’m on the hunt for a smartwatch that’s great for monitoring health - things like blood pressure, stress levels, sleep quality, and physical activity. However, I’d prefer to avoid products from overseas and focus on something available in the European market. There are plenty of smartwatches, rings, and fitness bands out there, but I’m not sure which ones are actually worth considering.
