SAY GOODBYE TO BIG COMPANIES WITH THESE ALTERNATIVES
Throughout the years, we have been relying on big companies like Google, Microsoft, Meta and others to give us access to their products to use our computers and phones, communicate on the online web, and store our files. However, as things have gotten worse with the years and the rise of gen-AI only making things worse, people are starting to question if they can even move to new services. However, the journey can be hard and there are so many options that non-tech savvy people are going lose patience and give up.
That is why I made this long and comprehensive list of mostly open-source alternatives to different things from computer OS, social media, to even TV. Many things are easy to move to, others are for more tech-savvy people, and this list doesn't even have all of the available options in any category! However, this is a great first step into trying new things and to slowly move away from big tech. You don't need to do it all at once, go step by step, decide if there are some services you can't stop using and which ones could use a switch and have fun!
Comments and Reviews
What i like about it:
you can subscribe to posts and comments and get notifications for new comments. thats helpful if a certain topic is particularly meaningful to you and you can follow the discussion, you also have to click to mark something is read so you can slowly and incrementally read stuff, this also seems to work well even for posts made on lemmy.
topics easily allow you to find good communities
there is a wiki system like reddit.
you can write notes about certain users, that can help you decide if to engage with someone (for example because he develops a open source project you like) , or not to engage (if he is a troll).
you can have something like reddit multireddits , where you define custom feeds (for example you can have one for humour, and anothers for news made up of multiple communities on these subjects)
you can subscribe to recieve notifications when some communities get new posts. this is useful because i think in general the more specialized a community is the better is the quality of its discussions. and more specialized communities have a lower frequency of posting. it could also make it easier for new communities to become more popular.
It has user flairs, so people for example can identify themselves as developers of a open source project or as people knowledgable about a certain topic (for example trained therapists)
