I wish you the best! The only social I have left is Lemmy (do most of my scrolling on RSS now so there's no comments) and as of 3 weeks ago have officially cut out all big tech (grapheneos on phone, linux on PC and laptops, no Google/Amazon etc). It's been a long 2 year journey but I feel like I accomplished something I can be proud of.

I've since finished a novel for the first time in years, started another, and listened to more diverse music than I ever have.

I still keep up with news (france24, fairly unbiased) but only because I feel like it's my responsibility to stay as informed as I'm capable of, especially now with fascism on the rise again.

Keep it up!
