Personally, I found the whole trump thing enough of a reason to finally switch from Gillette razors to a safety razor. Bit of a learning curve but not half bad. And it feels cooler shaving with something you could sort of hurt yourself with.

How about you?

    Windows 10 -> Linux:

    • I really dodged a bullet not using Windows 11 … is what I would say but just after switching I was told I have access to a free year of updates for Windows 10.
    • Linux has not been smooth sailing but it’s been manageable, still trying to find a distro that’s secure, stable, and simple.
    • I also had to try to teach someone Windows 11 recently which went about as well as you’d expect.

    American candy -> Local candy:

    • Less candy = more health and more money. Overall a complete victory.

    Microsoft Outlook to Proton Mail:

    • I CAN FINALLY ENABLE 2FA.

    iOS (10 years old) to GrapheneOS (on a used phone):

    • I CAN NO LONGER ENABLE 2FA (on my government services, Proton Mail works fine).
    • For once I feel actually good about my phone rather than begrudgingly tolerate it.

    Bluesky to anonymous frontend:

    • Less Twitter arguments.

    American streaming services to foreign services:

    • Less stuff to watch means I’m less overwhelmed by choice.

      I’ve started taking steps to switching to linux too! My lil memory stick just arrived the other day so I guess it’s time to start backing stuff up and preparing the switch!

      Can I ask what you mean by anonymous front end instead of Blue Sky? Is that another way to pick and choose your BlueSky content? There are definitely some fun/interesting accounts I’d like to follow but there was just too much rage bait there for me to really enjoy myself using the app.
