I’ve begun my journey to reduce my reliance on US tech, so it’s time for an update on how it’s all going.

No surprise, some services are far more easy to replace than others. Email and streaming are low-hanging fruit; maps and messaging can be more difficult. But we should still make the effort.

@parismarx Wanting to reduce reliance on US tech and using Substack, US company which supports Nazis, goes hand in hand.

@peterp @parismarx unfortunately, especially with critical tech coverage, you need to be able to reach more people, as outlined: https://www.disconnect.blog/p/new-year-new-disconnect
New year, new Disconnect

Rejuvenated, refreshed, and ready for whatever new nightmares tech has in store

@privacydingus @parismarx Say it anyway you like. It is still a Nazi bar. And you are defending drinking in it.

@peterp @parismarx the application of the Nazi bar problem to an email newsletter is a bit strained, to be honest. Most of these people are having their drinks delivered to a separate location.
