I made the choice to leave all Meta products behind. I’m doing so for my own mental health and well being. So let me talk for a moment about the apps that are linked in the topbar of the desktop version of my website.
Pixelfed is the fediverse version of Instagram and I’m already having fun scrolling and posting on the app.

They are currently running a Kickstarter to create an fediverse app version of TikTok and WhatsApp/Snapchat

Counter Social is an app I have been on for years since I left Twitter. It is a clean, free of bots, free of trolls, sign up for a free account, ad free, safe space. The culture is friendly and it’s easy to start conversations and threads. They use and respect tags. Zero tolerance for bullies.

I have a handful of videos on YouTube. I’ve already downloaded all of my short videos off of TikTok onto my devices, and I’m going to archive them in a long form video onto my YouTube channel.
