The word “No” is such a life-changer and it’s definitely something I learned to apply only recently. I grew up being told to be obedient. Parents demanded it and school enforced it.

I feel these alternative clients are only temporary until Meta decides to do something that ends up breaking these apps.
Is the free tier truly free? The saying, “if a product is free, you are the product” comes to mind.
My only gripe with Windows 11 is how it constantly puts in crap I don’t like without my permission and I’ll have to spend time to remove it.
Other than that and the incoherent UI philosophy, the OS is pretty smooth.
I’m testing removing Google from my life for some time now.
