There is dignity in contributing to society, I do something I’m reasonably good at and therefore enjoy doing, my colleagues are friendly and decent people, it puts a roof over my head, food on the table, and something in the piggy bank for a rainy day.


Vivaldi is a great browser. I don’t love that is Chromium-based, but it’s honestly the only problem I have with it.
For search I use Kagi. It’s American, but it’s so much better than anything else for me that I haven’t made the switch to Qwant yet.


My own, not so much. But I love celebrating other peoples’ birthdays.
From other hand we don’t like major corporations here on fediverse
It’s perfectly fine to have your own opinion.
As for myself, I’m not opposed to major corporations per se and for that reason, no moral issues with investing as a whole. Currently my money is invested in an all-world ESG fund that includes a large exposure to the US. I’m not entirely comfortable with it but haven’t decided yet if I want to move my funds, and to which alternative.


My current sitch is that (at least at home, work is an entirely different question) I was able to delete my Google account last year. That said, I’m in the Apple ecosystem, which made things a lot easier. I do check Youtube occasionally, but without an account and with Vivaldi’s built-in adblocker working well. I’m aware that Vivaldi is Chromium-based, which is a trade-off I have accepted for myself.
If you like Kate Ryan’s version I can also recommend the original by Mylène Farmer.
