It is okay not to fight all the fights all at once.
Nowadays you may feel the urge to boycott ten different companies, stop using certain services, self-host a billion things, consume specific products, save energy in a certain way, and so on.
If you can do all that, great.
If not, it is okay.
Chose your battles. Do what you can and allow yourself some slack.
They* want you to be drained, exhausted, grumpy, and forced to spend more energy in fighting a billion different battles instead of focusing your effort on fewer things.
@thek3nger I think I heard of a term called "privacy fatigue" in the world of opsec and privacy, it's when you try too hard to achieve a level of privacy by changing too many things about your life that it becomes unsustainable and unlivable.
I try my best to distance myself away from big corporations as much as possible, but sometimes it's really hard. Like, YouTube is not a platform I can live without and there are frontend alternatives, but it is finicky at best.
Same thing for Google as a search engine, it's hard to move away from that because there are no viable alternatives, a lot of them are Google or Bing under the hood. DDG runs under Bing hood as far as I know.
I do encourage moving to open source alternatives if possible, but I think we need to understand that we can't go as far as cutting all electronics, living off-grid and stuff like that.
