Some global users are turning to services like Proton Mail and UpScrolled instead.

Countries are growing uneasy about their dependence on U.S. technology firms.

    I’m selfhosting most of my stuff now and did closed 500 accounts, still 960 to review. It take times but I always while closing enter a comment like “lost confidence in USA for the next 50 years thanks to Trump”

    I did some architecture and implementation to Azure for a big client, now moved to pure AKS with only OSS software, nest step for thémis to quit US cloud, a lot easier if you use pure kubernetes.

    I plan to organize meetup on sovereignty, privacy and self hosting soon too 😇

        it is easy to have 1500+ passwords, I’m online since 1996 :-) and use a password manager like keepass, some sites died, others are still online, i have multiple mailbox, twitter, facebook. it goes up really fast!

        not counting also all SSO with google, apple, and now my own pocketid selfhosted domain :-)

        I will have to remove also those 50+ google authentificator TOTP and replace them with passkeys…

        BTW, it is recommended to use single password per service sinces more than 20 years now, so without a password manager it is impossible to create new accounts. i started in firefox, then chrome password manager, then keepassX …

          This is… completely normal amount of accounts? I am at 1083 saved in my password manager. Admittedly it’s a bit inflated with things like crypto wallets and few dozen passwords for 192.168.1.1 for every router I ever saw. But then, I also been on account deletion spree for a year now and been avoiding making new accounts if at all possible, otherwise I’d easily be over 1500

          My question is how does someone even know the number of accounts they have lmao

          Like, over the past 2+ decades I’ve been using the Internet, I can’t even give an estimate of how many accounts I have made.

      I’d always get paranoid that they’d revert the changing your details like reddit did when they undeleted mass-deleted comments before.

        I have over 200 logins overall, but most of them are to forums that have been dead for a decade.

        The internet used to be quite a different place back in the day, people had separated communities and everything wasn’t just on a handful of massive platforms.
