You don't have to be perfect, but every step you take in the right direction helps:

X, Insta, TicToc -> https://joinfediverse.wiki/Fediverse_projects
Microsoft -> Install Linux on it
AI -> ask intelligent humans instead, e.g. #AskFedi
Google -> https://noai.duckduckgo.com
GoogleMail -> @Tutanota
iPhone -> jailbreak it, use it until its dead, get a Fairphone with @e_mydata
Amazon video, Disney+, Netflix, Spotify, etc. -> Torrents
Google/Microsoft/Apple calendar -> physical calendar
Zoom -> meet friends IRL, or use @signalapp
Whatsapp -> Signal, or better yet @mollyim
omnivorism -> vegetarianism, veganism, freeganism, flexitarianism, ... (just consume fewer animal products and save food)
car -> public transit, bike, car-sharing
flying -> discover the beauty of your closer surroundings by train
job -> general strike
consumerism -> sufficiency
despair -> collective effectiveness & empowerment

Any self-employed or #freesoftware people want a buddy to kvetch to?

I've got a mildly cursed project (Mission:Libre) of my own. I'd love someone else who also has a troublesome project to gossip and commiserate with day-to-day. It's got to be more fun than going it alone, right?

Hey Fedi!

Our microwave oven died. Do you have recommendations for one that
- will not die after a few years
- has as little unnecessary complexity as possible.

It does not have to be cheap, but it does have to be good value for my money.

hey fedi today i #askfedi about this thing, because i'm tired of the Googs and the Les

recommend me a search engine that:

• doesn't suck
• doesn't shove AI in my face
• isn't google
• doesn't take an eon to load

if that exists, anyway

Are there any good #PeerTube instances out there that you would recommend, that allows sign-ups and that also keeps the software up to date?

I really like the videos from TILvids, but it seems like updating their server is a bit difficult. And I would love seeing how the newest version of the software plays out for the end-user!

This may be too niche an ask but...artists of the Fediverse, do you sell any of your warm and cozy work in the form of a desk mat? Do you ship to the UK?

Please slide into my comments with a link to your shop!

:boost_ok: Boosts appreciated because I have no idea how to tag this, thank you

Genuine question:

What is the purpose some of YOU might get out of a local LLM? I cannot think of much way to get use, so I'm truly curious.

Local only, please. #AskFedi
