I get the feeling that people can sort of “feel” that something is different (Monkey instinct?) despite us acting totally normal.

I feel the same, it genuinely hurts when I think I let other down (despite they might not feel so).

Compassion is good, but we should probably reserve it for people who are close to us.

For those people who you probably will never meet a second time, close your heart to it.

I think it just mean you blocked/restricted these app’s internet access.

Linux Mint chocolate chip cookies with coconut milk and some other things 🤤.

Thanks for the suggestions! 😃 I will take the two phone method into consideration in the future.

I see, perhaps changing my approach & mindset towards privacy is the next thing I should work on.

Will definitely still do more stuff like boxing & containing non private services.

Thanks for the suggestions!

I will give more office alternatives a shot, and see Windows more as a “tool” that I don’t prefer, rather than something to banish.

And yeah, Google sees all on stock android. I definitely will make Pixel+ custom ROMs my top choice when I next switch phones.

Guess I tried to push privacy a bit too fixated. Thx for the reminder👍.

I would say it’s worth it! Pure anonymity is unachievable, it’s more about putting as much roadblock on the way as possible.

Like… making yourself harder to find by another guy. Not allowing big tech to have your data in an arms reach.

Treat privacy like a fun game, go as far and as slow as you like. It’s totally fine to take a break and do more once you’re motivated to do so.
