Just switched to Tuta (email and calendar) and I have to say the process was very smooth! I have custom domains, thousands of emails, and a busy calendar - but standard migration tools (mbox, eml, ics) worked as they were intended to, and I was up and running in no time! Which, as we all know, would *not* be the case with most olitech providers.

10/10 would recommend. Good apps, too.

Wealthy people once lived with vast staffs who cooked and cleaned for them, and who often knew intimate details of the lives of the powerful.

Now we have found a way for the rich to outsource ... thinking. Off-load mental work to minds half way around the world. We are suppose to pretend AI is doing this work.

TIL you can help #OpenStreetMap while you are walking around.

No more wandering aimlessly around. Now every step is a big f you to surveillance capitalism.

At least if you have an Android phone.

Small tasks and questions to keep the map updated.

Be the change.

What we want: more transparency of corporations.

What we get: more surveilance of private individuals.
