"Separate the art from the artist"? That's hard while the artist still earns a royalty and spends it on harassing critics in court or promoting intolerance.

"The Death of the Author"? The author's heirs aren't dead and can keep a biography from being published. Copyright encourages intentionalism.

The Things I Can't Change

I finally did it! After several months of navigating the challenges of deGoogling, I just deleted my Google account after 15+ years. I was deeply invested in the Google ecosystem, and it has not been easy. However, the journey has been worth it.

I've replaced everything I used from Google with FOSS options, and I'm already noticing the benefits, like increased privacy and control over my data. One of the biggest challenges was finding reliable alternatives, but I’ve discovered some fantastic tools along the way.

Have any of you made a similar switch? I’d love to hear your experiences or any recommendations you might have!
