@kevinja @starbreaker I mostly use Fastmail now for email, and already use DDG, StartPage and FireFox for interneting. But yeah, drive/docs/etc will be hard to replace - especially when most people aren't going to want to switch services.
@starbreaker @kevinja looking at this now. Thanks!
Stop - you are not a machine.

@kevinja @starbreaker I reeeeeeeaaaaally need to get rid of all my Google accounts :\ anyone know of a similar platform where one can collaborate with people on documents/spreadsheets/etc?

Maybe when we learned that a 19-year old Mark Zuckerberg called 4,000 of his fellow Harvard students “dumb fucks” for trusting him with their personal information, we should have believed him the first time.

@Gargron This is awesome, and I'll be sharing it widely. But, I also think now is the time to start talking about how we stop the likes of #CambridgeAnalytica / #Palantir from abusing the Fediverse's model, too. I work for scrapinghub.com - I can see how easy it would be to map and monitor the entire fediverse right now. From there to hyper-targeted fake profiles is a small enough step. How do we harden ourselves against #Twitter / #Facebook-style manipulation without damaging the social fabric?
Oh, and re: this Cambridge Analytica bs - I will be participating in #DeleteFacebook this weekend after a performance I'm involved in is over, since everyone decided to coordinate rehearsals etc on FB. 🙄

@starbreaker content mostly, a little bit of the design. I've just had writer's block for the last 6 months or so. 😐
Attempting to work on my blog/website again 😒
Anyone having issues with their #OnePlus5 getting delayed notifications on #androidoreo? Rebooting fixes it temporarily and brings a barrage of notifications that I should have gotten hours ago. 😒
@stochastix yessss chocolate 🤤
I'm randomly depressed, it sucks. Sleep will fix it, right? 😨
I'm so fucking exhausted
