- Dropped Reddit and Twitter completely. Actually deleted my Reddit account and deleted most of my Twitter history.
- Stopped using Gmail as my primary email.
- Went back to DVD and Blu-Ray for shows and movies I think I might want to rewatch.
- Slowly importing stuff I've posted on various social media to my website.
- Slowly moving stuff off of Google Drive and Dropbox to my local PC and/or Nextcloud.
- Finally set up my Nextcloud server to use object storage so I can use it for auto-uploads without worrying about space.
- Tried out a bunch of different Fediverse platforms.
- Made more of an effort to report bugs instead of just living with them or using something else.
- Deleted Chrome as my secondary browser and installed Vivaldi. (I've been using Firefox as my primary for a while.)
Moving stuff is slow because I don't want to just copy it all over, I want to decide what to keep in the process.
Someone's concern for privacy can change throughout the day or at different locations. To keep the metaphor going, they might be fine with the top being open while they're driving, but want it closed when the car is parked.
