You don't have to be perfect, but every step you take in the right direction helps:

@e_mydata @signalapp @mollyim @Tutanota I love it. One tiny thing that annoyed my for a while was that sometimes a folder would show a badge for 1 unread email, but then I didn't find that unread email in that folder. I recently found out, that that's an unread email in a conversation and the conversation as a whole is not displayed as unread, because I read the last email. Now that I know its not an issue and there are no other issues either.
Keep up the great work!

@karlos I really don't know (I'd guess you can only jailbreak it), but #AskFedi:

Can you install another OS on an iPhone 16?

Re: Amazon video, Disney+, Netflix, Spotify, etc. -> Torrents

This is a bit of a double edged sword as these services (except Spotify, which should just disappear) actually do provide the livelihood of round about 300 people for each show / movie they produce.

While I'm not happy at all with their business practices nor a lot of their content, there is actual economic value here.

The decent thing here would be to just not consume the content.

@PaulaToThePeople @e_mydata @signalapp @mollyim Thanks, good to hear!

[paulatothepeople@climatejustice.social]

@wonshu economic value?
I really don't care about capitalism.

For music: Download it via torrents and donate to the artists directly if you can afford it.
For movies etc.: Boycott those giant companies so they go bancrupt and those people can find good jobs at smaller, independent studios.

People depending on capitalism is not an argument to support, but to destroy capitalism, so they can be free.

@PaulaToThePeople

your compassion knows no bounds.

But it's understandable that for me and the people I work with - creating movies and series is the way of supporting our lives and our families.

It's alright, you can of course keep your absolutist opinion. I think it is wrong and all I wanted to do is add the perspective from the trenches.

[paulatothepeople@climatejustice.social]

@wonshu I don't disagree with you and that's what I meant with my first sentence. Only do as much as you can.
You're right - in my last post I argued a bit too dogmatic.

Dependence is of course something you should try to ween off of, but at the same time something you can't easily escape - especially if you have a lot of other things to fight and can't concentrate all your efforts on that one issue.
I'm not trying to blame anyone participating in capitalism - we all do. But I applaud every step anyone takes.

[wonshu@mastodon.social]

@PaulaToThePeople thank you.

I think my main point is, and I also think we agree on that, we need to make "the economy" work for the workers (in the wider sense) and that's where the streamers (excluding the cesspool Spotify, which doesn't give anything back) have a little different role from most of the other services.
Because film production is sort of a little "village" in and of itself, with carpenters, builders, tailors etc etc...

@PaulaToThePeople@climatejustice.social @Tutanota@mastodon.social @e_mydata@mastodon.social @signalapp@mastodon.world @mollyim@fosstodon.org as for calendar apps, there are actually loads of great FOSS calendar apps. On my linux I use GNOME Calendar and on my android i use Fossify Calendar

[art_histories@mastodon.social]

@PaulaToThePeople @Tutanota @e_mydata @signalapp @mollyim Do you have ressources about jailbreaking an iPhone? It never occured to me.

[swggrkllr3rd@mastodon.world]

@PaulaToThePeople @Tutanota @e_mydata @signalapp @mollyim Do you have an alternative to youtube ??

[paulatothepeople@climatejustice.social]

@tragivictoria Yeah there surely are. Physical calendar is just my personal choice. But I also think a little more analog is healthy in a way too digitalized world.

[paulatothepeople@climatejustice.social]

@art_histories No sorry, I've done it sometimes before 2014 I think, when I did the switch to Fairphone.

[paulatothepeople@climatejustice.social]

@swggrkllr3rd

In the long run/for creators: PeerTube
If you just want to watch YT content now: Invideous

[disisdeguey@expressional.social]

@PaulaToThePeople @Tutanota @e_mydata @signalapp @mollyim Agreed a Try the alternatives to genocide, exploitation, slavery, AI, etc... move on!

If you want to Boycott Trump and to stay away from GAFAM, until PeerTube gets momentum, Dailymotion is a decent alternative.

[paulatothepeople@climatejustice.social]

Many of these steps are not easy.

Many of these steps won't benefit you personally immediately.

You can be proud of every step you take/took.

[paulatothepeople@climatejustice.social]

@swggrkllr3rd @CosminOprescu Okay, but please don't use ableist (stupid) or speciesist (comparing Trump to an animal) language in my replies. Thanks.

[cosminoprescu@mastodon.social]

@PaulaToThePeople
Done
