Different tools for different purposes

Deleted my 10 year account a few months ago. Haven’t looked back. Once in a while my google searches will point me to some reddit thread, and I’ll check it out, but I have logged in for the last time.

Tech is probably the 1%

Like you have a choice in 98% of workplaces.

Because not every movie and episode that I want to watch is already released. Radarr/sonarr lets me subscribe and downlod the correct movie/episode when available in the quality profile that I want.

Also automatically sorting everything in a useful structure when I share my plex libraries with friends and family.

You guys are not using radarr/sonarr?

Ignore /c/all and be selective about the communities you subscribe to. In addition to other unfortunate browsing behaviours I also started lifting weights and climbing, so something good came out of it 😄

Awesome work :)

Correct. But a VPN provider can also build a profile on that metadata, and transparency is often lacking in the VPN business. I live in a country with fairly good privacy laws for now and much prefer my ISP to have my metadata than someone else.

A boycott is rarely comfortable.

Deleted my 10 year account with hundreds of posts and thousands of comments. I have to admit, leaving reddit has created a sort of vacuum in my life, and I have been spending more time scrolling on facebook, news sites and other shitty services. I’m happy to finally have landed on lemmy, but it has been a bit bumpy with the instability on lemmy.world.

I trust my ISP more than a random VPN provider. I use HTTPS for everything anyways.
