Hey NOSTR!
Inspired by @npub1...6eyhe , I’ve begun the journey of pulling my time, energy, and attention out of Big Tech. So far, I’ve:
-moved as much of my messaging over to Signal, Session and @npub1...8r3ec
-Permanently deleted all (anti) social media accounts, including Instagram and X. Pumped to explore NOSTR via @npub1...lpugg
-permanently deleted my Google account. Current replacement stack = Proton for mail, calendar and authenticator, Bitwarden for password management, Organic Maps for GPS. (Still some work to do but this is a good start so far)
BUT….I’m still sitting inside the Apple ecosystem (iPhone, Mac, etc.) So here’s my question:
Is it necessary to exit Big Tech at the hardware layer too? Or is reclaiming the app/protocol layer already 80–90% of the win?
If the answer is “yes, go further” what are the best paths right now?
Looking at options like Framework and System76 but open to suggestions.
I’m trying to move toward sovereignty without unnecessary complexity. But would favour sovereignty over complexity if need be.
Would appreciate thoughts from people further down this path.
