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

#Community & Connection: SPARTA Strength at the Milano Senior Center in #Melrose, MA 💪🏾
📌The Benefits of Moving Together:
✅ Physical & Mental: Regular sessions help reduce the risk of cognitive decline, functional difficulties, and isolation.
✅ #Empowerment: Movement builds the confidence needed to maintain an independent #lifestyle.
At SPARTA Strength, we focus on more than movement — it’s about laughter, connection, and healthy #aging.✨

Living in the country of the "Tricoteuses", the famous knitting women of the French Revolution, I have a soft spot for #craftivism like this: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jan/29/ice-knitting-protest-immigration
#Handicrafts and #fiberArts are dangerous for authoritarian regimes because they connect and enable people.

I'll be 51 years old, on February 3rd, 2026. I don't feel my age 😆

New post:
"A newbie's guide to self-hosting with #YunoHost. Part 2: installation & setup"
with a special shout-out to @shollyethan and @ilja who, a year ago, encouraged me to try self-hosting. And of course immense gratitude to the @yunohost team for making all this possible ❤️
I hope this guide may inspire others to try it, too. The path to digital independence and empowerment is easier than you thought...
