@kcpoole @parismarx We're on the open social web right now.
Rumors of the web's death are greatly exaggerated.

@jaredwhite @parismarx I did say virtually useless,
Mastodon and related social or some of the few places left that have not been enshittified -
Last year I put together a guide to help people get off US tech — and that includes Google. There are a lot of alternatives there they will help you make a plan to pull away from Google services, and all the rest of them too.

Google Docs is the one holdout. I do use Proton docs when I can but it's not as full-featured as Gdocs sadly -

@parismarx thank you for this collection.
Are you aware of the following hashtags:
#did #didit #diday (Digital Independence Day)
Most of the messages will be in German.
The project started end of last year at the #ccc (Chaos Computer Club), the biggest German hacker society. https://www.ccc.de/en/
Maybe interesting for you.
Best regards from Germany
