It’s a trip seeing them around. Somehow they look even worse in person.

I know I’m a drop in the bucket but I have always been a diehard Google fanboy and, in the recent years, have switched to iOS, Firefox, and DuckDuckGo. No regrets.

Instagram has been getting me with this. I like to post sometimes, but my friends and I recently compared our screen time stats and I couldn’t believe I was regularly wasting hours a day mindlessly scrolling IG. I uninstalled the app and will just occasionally post from my computer.

I thought the same. Interesting strategy cutting the people who are good enough to get another job.

I’ve tried to get my friends consolidated in one app in the past, but have given up. I prefer Discord, but use a combo of that and Slack, Signal, GroupMe, IG, FB Messenger, SMS, email, and probably some others I’m forgetting about. Discord is the only one I directly open, the others I’ll just rely on notifications.

Used Chrome forever, switched to Firefox back when this stuff first started going down. No ragerts.

Well now I want to watch it again.

Dude was a 6 iron away.

This is what finally moved me over to Firefox and I’ve been very happy with it.

Anecdotally, the Seattle Public Library is currently recovering from a ransomware attack and still has major systems offline. Of all targets, a public library is a pretty major low.

Honestly they look like that straight on.
