A year ago today I made my Lemmy account
I now have a Mastodon, a Pixelfed, a bookwyrm, and a Peertube account. I switched off of most google services to privacy respecting ones. A week ago I bought a laptop to run Linux mint on.
And I couldn’t be happier here’s to another year of the Fediverse!
That last part is a huge bonus. It’s creepy how much information the get from watching your consumption habits. Imagion how many times you’ve stopped to look at an ad of something you were interested in just to see if it’s on sail or something.
Not even interacting with the ad they can gauge interest in certain categories let alone the product itself.
