I don't do apple, how can I stay away from meta though?

Don’t use any of their services and delete existing accounts.

Install an ad-blocker (Firefox and uBlock Origin)

Help others to jump ship from these platforms and spread awareness of ad-blocking.

I deactivated FB years ago do I still need to delete?

[–] BroBot9000@lemmy.world 3 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago) (1 children)

I would.

Took down all my stuff. It was years ago. Obviously they have their own copy somewhere in their Ai training database…

But it felt good taking it all down.

Like no. You don’t get to have any of my stuff with my permission anymore. You get to do it the hard way and fight my ad-blocker.

I’m sure they have multiple copies

Tell your grandma she can sms you, I suppose. What else is on facebook?

Signal and telegram instead of WhatsApp

[–] Boomkop3@reddthat.com 1 points 4 weeks ago

I have all three. I'd ditch whatsapp if my peers weren't kinda stuck on it
