yayaya!! luckily when i was young i heard about spotify ads giving users malware, so i never used it. i use youtube music. its not a perfectly ethical choice but its better than spotify in every way. except the recaps, but ive heard spotify recently fired their stats people, so...
also i highly recommend using firefox + duckduckgo instead of google. they dont sell ur info, its easy to turn of duck's ai summary tool, and they recently added a way to filter out ai images from searches
Yes, in my "unfuck your browser" guide I recommend firefox + ublockorigin. I personally use duckduckgo, but knowing so many people use Google, it also has multiple options for unfucking google search (suppressing AI + forcing it to default to "web" responses). There is no ethical consumption under capitalism, but what there is, is ways to vastly improve our personal experience on a thing we spend most of our waking hours on!
I thought I recognized the handwriting/art style of the "leap of faith" drawing - and I was right! Just checked my copy, it's from Austin Kleon's excellent book "Steal Like an Artist." Highly recommended reading.
Great post, appreciate the tips. It's good advice.
Oh dang that happened way faster than I expected. Thank you! I'll change it in the post. I've put a hold on "Steal Like an Artist" at the library, this looks great!

How fortunate, I just unsubbed from Spotify this week! This will help me uninstall the app, thank you!
