I was already used to Debian Linux.
I was already used to Firefox + uBlock.
I was already used to having a dumbphone instead of a smartphone.
I decided to start financially supporting free open source software like VLC, Krita, Gimp, Qbittorrent. For far too long, I have taken these amazing software for granted.
I started buying Signal (Unilever) instead of Colgate (USA). Until I find a brand that is actually even smaller than Unilever.
But Google was the real challenge.
I had another email account, but my Gmail account had a ton of stuff on it. Youtube ? I liked it. But I can put my favorite channels in my bookmarks.
It took some time to sort out everything.
But I actually did it.
It's over.
Finally.
FINALLY
Fuck the US social model. Inhuman bastards

Resist US corporations. Resist multinationals.
Support non-profits and small busineses.
