Google is trying to put the web in a cage in the same way they put your devices in a cage (Android, ChromeOS).

There’s one really easy, simple and efficient way to fight them: uninstall Chrome/Chromium, use #firefox

Do it. Now.

– But I prefer Chrome because of…

If you are not ready to sacrifice a little comfort (so little, Firefox is great) to save the web, then you don’t deserve a free web anyway. You are part of those killing it.

Remove Chrome. Install Firefox.

The Meta vs #fediverse drama feels huge. And important.

Then I realised that none of the trending hashtags on Mastodon were about it. People mostly talk about Russia. Mastodon doesn't really care.

Then I realised that most computer engineers don't know about Mastodon. Some geeks on Twitter talk about it as a "Twitter alternative".

Then I realised that most real people around me in the street have never used T'witter.

We are a so tiny village Thanks for caring about it and being part of it.

So you want to leave #reddit but you are addicted?

Maybe your favourite subreddit already has a #lemmy counterpart. Try to look for it on:

https://lemmyverse.net/communities

Best of all, you can follow those sub through Mastodon. Like @programmerhumor

Same can be said for #kbin which is another reddit-like for the #fediverse.

And thanks @davidrevoy for the wonderful picture.
