idk what to put here
main stuff i do or am trying to do:
- music
- coding + gamedev
- learning languages (japanese and tokipona)
- trying not to procrastinate on the above even tho i am anyway

random rant about privacy

personally i think it's gross and unfair that corps make free money off the masses, by hoarding their data for profit...

either selling it directly to advertisers, or using it to "improve their products" which: more stuff running makes stuff run slower, data stored can become leaked, its dehumanizing

even worse, future prosecution based on changed laws or moral standards

it's done through a combination of "convenience" and from that standardization which becomes monopolistic;

anyway if u want heres some alternatives to try:

!!
windows linux mint/ winaero tweaker to disable telemetry on windows
google searx, brave search, duckduckgo
chrome brave, firefox w/ telemetry off, librewolf
extensions ublock origin (adblock), decentralize

twitter/threads bsky, mastodon
