I switched to Qobuz

I've been on Apple Music literally since the first day it started. I've loved Apple Music ever since and I have no real issues with them. However, since I've been migrating away from all things Ame...

I updated the list of magical items

Getting off of Apple Podcasts

I've recently deleted everything off of Apple Podcasts. Keep in mind - I've used this app for years on a daily basis. It used to be reliably on my home screen - the first one, mind - at the bottom ...

Deleting Google Stuff

One thing about revamping your entire system and going independent is that it forces you to finally consolidate everything under your own independent means. I forgot how much /crap/ i had over at G...

Changing my email is a pain

If there's one thing that is more time consuming than anything when changing your domain, it's changing to your new email address on every single website and service where you had your old one.

Getting Off of the American Tech Stack
