it gets a lot easier with time . making switches like os , browser , search engine , etc are all huge steps , then ditching big tech and replacing them with foss . it ' s always hardest ditching some stuff becus of friends , but making new accounts on better and more private places and using those when you can . do you need help with specific switches to make ?
many people will treat u as crazy , it is sadly the world we are in where we have been taught that only criminals want privacy .
Whoever came to w this was a propaganda genius

yes , that ' s a very good thing , though many ppl still do not care much for big tech surveillance
