Let me start by establishing some ethos here, which I think might be important: I deleted my Instagram account in 2013; my Facebook account went in 2015 (well, technically only 2016 because it turns out that I had only “deactivated” it at first, but oh well); I don’t use Spotify, Netflix, or any other streaming service; my phone, even though it’s Android, has Google Play Services disabled for 95% of the time; I run my own e-mail server, self-host my blog, don’t even use Google (or an AI) for searching anymore. Oh, and even though I’ve mentioned this in the about page, I’ve used Linux full-time on my desktop and servers for pretty much 20 years at this point - I’ve an allergic reaction to Windows.
