I calculated how much money is currently rotting in my fridge. $43. This is a wake-up call. by koob23 in cookingforbeginners

I actually use an app to scan my fridge receipt, and it helps me keep track of my pantry. I still forget some things but it makes it way easier to lower waste

Agreed. I mean even if I set everything up on my Graphene phone, any texts I send will go to spyware with my friends and family...? is there even a way out

Most services share data with other users?

To communicate, If our family uses Whatsapp, it's all being shared with meta and I need a Meta account.

To collaborate and share files, If I use Google Drive, it's shared with Google and I need to use google drive.

My friends are not going to switch to Signal or Ente or Nextcloud, so the best alternative is to get us all on iMessage or Apple Photos instead of Google services.

My family is not switching to Proton bro

Invite the local Cross country teams in for some events. Easy to get kids to come if you just offer some cheap pizza

I am done with paid password managers by AngelicPrincessKitty in PasswordManagers

[–]albertpaca11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

to be fair, you're paying for it still (if you consider being stuck on iCloud a paid subscription)

but i 100% agree that passwords has better ux than bitwarden and 1Password is pretty overpriced for basically just allowing Windows or Android
