Over the past three or four weeks I’ve dumped subscriptions, degoogled as much as I think I’m going to be able to, bought Canadian where able and Anywhere But America everywhere else.
But I feel like there’s more I could be doing to stick it to the yanks. Does anyone have any suggestions for some daily activities to do to keep my spite burning?
A couple things that I’ve found: Going through all my apps, even the free ones. Checking whether the company is, at some end of the chain, American and if so, finding an alternative app.
Writing letters to my local stores, asking them either to improve their Canadian signage or about the availability of more Canadian goods.
The next one I’m starting is working out how to host a jellyfin server as I’ve made a deal with some of my non techy friends that if I can figure out how to host whatever they’re streaming, they’ll cancel the relevant American subscriptions.
Finally, trying to make un American or open source projects/environments/alternatives better, e.g., participating on Blue Sky or here.
Regardless, thanks for your efforts and keep up the good fight!
