I suppose it depends on how she's using it as an everything database. But search in Photos is fantastic. And if it's must be accessible from mobile devices it's even trickier. </p><p>I reverted to my pre-cloud photo process. Everything is on a hard drive and I use digiKam which is free/libre software. It's an excellent app but does not provide anything close to Photos search. </p><p><a href="https://social.coop/tags/ThrowingBigTechToTheCurb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ThrowingBigTechToTheCurb</span></a> <br><a href="https://social.coop/tags/ResistBigTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ResistBigTech</span></a><br><a href="https://social.coop/tags/Apple" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Apple</span></a> <a href="https://social.coop/tags/Google" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Google</span></a> <a href="https://social.coop/tags/Microsoft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Microsoft</span></a> <a href="https://social.coop/tags/Amazon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Amazon</span></a> <a href="https://social.coop/tags/Fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Fascism</span></a></p>

Keep sharing your progress. I think the more we talk about it and share our steps taken the more we can help one another. Just as they "gameify" their shit to keep is using it, we should gameify our progress in getting off out of their nightmarish profit machines.</p><p><a href="https://social.coop/tags/ThrowingBigTechToTheCurb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ThrowingBigTechToTheCurb</span></a><br><a href="https://social.coop/tags/Resist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Resist</span></a> <br><a href="https://social.coop/tags/ResistBigTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ResistBigTech</span></a><br><a href="https://social.coop/tags/Apple" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Apple</span></a> <a href="https://social.coop/tags/Google" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Google</span></a> <a href="https://social.coop/tags/Microsoft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Microsoft</span></a> <a href="https://social.coop/tags/Amazon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Amazon</span></a> <a href="https://social.coop/tags/Fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Fascism</span></a> <br><a href="https://social.coop/tags/RefuseToObey" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RefuseToObey</span></a></p>
Jan Penfrat<p>So now that both <a href="https://eupolicy.social/tags/Apple" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Apple</span></a> and <a href="https://eupolicy.social/tags/Meta" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Meta</span></a> have formally appealed the <a href="https://eupolicy.social/tags/DMA" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>DMA</span></a> fines that are just pocket money for them, can we please start calling those lawsuits for what they are: intimidation similar to <a href="https://eupolicy.social/tags/SLAPPs" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>SLAPPs</span></a>. </p><p>They are designed to bind public resources for years, which regulators will lack for enforcing the <a href="https://eupolicy.social/tags/DigitalMarketsAct" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>DigitalMarketsAct</span></a>, to intimidate civil servants in the <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://ec.social-network.europa.eu/@EUCommission" class="u-url mention">@<span>EUCommission</span></a></span>, and to show us that <a href="https://eupolicy.social/tags/BigTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>BigTech</span></a> is above the law and that we are helpless.</p><p>Let's not be intimidated. <a href="https://eupolicy.social/tags/ResistBigTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>ResistBigTech</span></a></p>
Tim W RESISTS<p>What critical online infrastructure is begging for disruption, either via decentralization or just giving non-megacorp alternatives? We've got Fedi, we've got Signal, we've got Tor (all of which also need/deserve support, of course). What do we need next?</p><p>Akamai/Cloudflare replacement? Facebook/LinkedIn? (Are they worth replacing? Does Fedi already do enough?) Something else? <a href="https://union.place/tags/ResistBigTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ResistBigTech</span></a></p>
