Hehe me too!! (First post on Lemmy too…no more lurking since I’ve found “my people”!)

My obsession at the moment is with internet privacy and reducing data available to insidious ad companies….

But my usual staples are always Star Wars (I love it all - don’t get into the arguments/opinions about it either as I just love it all) Cycling (MTB and gravel cycling as well as bike packing) and Aviation/Aerospace (it’s my job too) ☺️

internet privacy and reducing data

Then I think you're ready to make the full jump to FOSS. I was into Linux when I was a little pre-teen, and I've only gotten more into it as big data hungry mega corporate induced culture preyed upon us.

I still use Twitch and Discord but I finally deleted my data on Instagram, Twitter, Reddit and rn I'm working on doing the same for Microsoft and Google. Goodbye Android.

Android is FOSS, you don't need to leave Android.

I should have been more specific. I know AOSP is a thing. It's not what I want.
