    Some of these recommendations are kinda wack…

    BlueSky but no mention of Mastodon?
    Deezer is primarily owned by an American investment fund
    Tuta is actively enshittifying
    ReVanced is still YouTube you’re just adding a middleman
    HERE WeGo’s website doesn’t even load atm but where is OpenStreetMap and its thousands of frontends?

        Every once in a while they’ll send you an email with special CSS styling so you can’t avoid seeing it and you can’t unsubscribe from it. They call it a newsletter. It’s advertising. It’s less news and more begging you to buy more of their stuff. Very occasionally they’ll bump new features onto a higher tier but still show that feature in your UI, with special CSS styling. God forbid if they try to upgrade your account but you deny because you’re happy with the features you have now and the amount you pay; they push harder and harder the longer you’re on a ‘legacy’ tier.

        It happened to me. It’ll happen to you.
