In the last week:
I started using Syncthing. I was using cloud storage as a way of copying files from one device to another. Syncthing is so much better.
I signed up with Mullvad VPN yesterday.
Deleted my Surfshark account today which I signed up with over two years ago when I didn’t care about privacy.
Finally convinced my sister to start using Signal.
last week i deleted reddit, github, steam, google, discord, facebook and probably more I forgot about
I only keep my Microsoft account cuz I got Minecraft on it, otherwise I use fedi, xmpp, irc and matrix for everything else
But steam has all my money and games :(
well if you got important stuff in it then keep it I guess
I only deleted my steam account because I never use it
I was mostly just lamenting that I could never be as hardcore as you. I am too addicted to gaming to give up steam haha
I only play offline indie games 99% of the times (using the 🏴☠️ method) which means I dont have to worry about DRM or mandatory login/internet connection
so technically the only thing I had on my steam was my status/scores, which are meaningless since I dont have friends lol
Try out Minetest and download the Mineclone2 Mod through the game. It is quite literally a Minecraft clone that is free and open source, does not require any accounts, has tons of mods, and does not have any tracking or bloatware programmed into it.
I’m sorry but minecraft is way better than that even if closed source, sorry
I do play minetst, but I gotta admit Minecraft is 1000% better
I have the exact same problem not being able to delete my Microsoft accounts since they’re linked to paid Minecraft accounts :(
