Amazing work! I really appreciate all the effort you are putting into this. Not to mention creating alternatives to things like Google Timeline.

Well you see officer, I was speeding because of a software glitch.

Unfortunately the best option is to not use these type of sites, especially if they are asking for identification or personal information. The web worked well enough for years with people just using usernames.

Personally when friends or family ask me why I not on a specific platform my response is usually because of the algorithmic feeds. This gets the conversation going where sometimes I get someone to actually switch.

The second best option if you really need to lurk on sites like this is using your “porn star name”. If you happen to know someone that makes fake ids, get one made using your alternative online identity and use that for when a website ask for it. You might even be able to use a AI image generator to produce something, or depending on your Photoshop skills you could go that route.

What a banger!

Or employees using AI to generate their work/content now need to spend equally as much time reviewing their generated work/content.

It’s like being a manager and asking your employee that you know always fucks up to do something. You have two options, get the employee to write it, then you check it after, or you write it yourself and save time on explaining or checking.

Are there any guides you follow so I can get a better idea how or what I should be aware of when moving from gmail go mailbox or something similar.

I have a few domain names, but wonder how I would use those names with mailbox for example, and what was your process for moving all emails from gmail to your new mail provider?

Dos you start by mostly forwarding everything and then slowly switching email accounts on all your online services? Or is there something I am missing?

If I happen to have a domain, but only have a free tier of gmail can I still do the DNS recognition you mentioned?

Nextcloud was great for getting me de-Googled. I use it for contacts, calendars, notes, files storage, photo uploads.

Everything self-hosted and backed up with snapshot every few hours.

When switching over to a paid mail service like this, do you start by forwarding all your your emails from google (or another service) and then slowly start migrating accounts to the new mail address?

Or is there anything I might be missing?

Mailbox looks interesting to me, and have really been wanting to ditch my gmail, it’s the last thing I have left under Google at the moment.

Why can’t companies operate on a sustainable revenue model? Why does it always need to be constant growth year over year?

They do, but thankfully with pfSense you can do DNS overrides with firewall rules to force all network devices to use local DNS, blocking everything else.

This one always gets me, walking home from the bar drunk (to avoid driving) can get you thrown in prison, or shot. At least in the US.

Honestly a cop would give you less hassle if you drove home drunk.
