Forget search engines, i feel like im going through different browsers now just to get what i want. The internet is getting so bloated cause of AI. 😑😑

Experiencing 4 hrs or less on sleep while working in construction, I forced myself to get more hours of sleep, or the coffee addiction will come back. Ill rather take the nicer option cause that shit is brutal🤣🤣

I use Peertube cause i got tired of the AI push, garbage, ad-polcolpyse, and every Youtuber is in some type of really stupid or concerning drama.

I wish Peertube had more diversity, thats my only problem with them. None of the spoofing alternatives of YT function properly, and i fell that they are gonna get closed off once Google really hits the fan of closing Android.

Maybe that’ll get more people to focus on Peertube, cause besides Rumble, thats the only platform i know thats a true alternative.

Mobile: Ironfox

Search Engine: SearXNG (Disroot)

PC: Firefox, Librewolf and Tor

Search engine: I go back and forth between DuckDuckGo and Startpage

Yeah, I understand, it would be ALOT to record.

The instance I’m in is definitely the odd ones out, we got no one here😅

Finally came over to Lemmy and found this place when the news of age vertificarion started spreading around, along with the annoying pop us of signing it to view the sight. Plus I got tired of how dead and full of bots it was, what makes Reddit think I would want to come back?? 😑

Very good point. Well for instagram, I only go on there to post on my account and do very little scrolling and that’s it, im off my phone. I’ll be there to just post on my account when I find something suitable. I’ve been pushing myself away from all this media unless its like trustworthy news

Like Google unfortunately uses RCS and everyone i know uses RCS because either they have apple or are using Google messages with RCS. So if I was to go to Signal for example, would my chats transfer over or would I have to start over because RCS is not used?

Can someone easily merge from Google Messages to Signal? I’ve heard of signal and im also looking for another message alternative; more so for that and insta. Pixelfed is really catching my eye for insta.

One of us, one of us, one of us…

Thanks everyone!

I haven’t gotten deep into self hosting yet, even though i do wanna try that with Jellyfin. For the insta alternative I prefer just posting and interacting with others.

Yeaahhh boooiiii🤣
