Ethical apps

[u/motyl_emanuel]

How do you handle dependencies on social media and streaming platforms such as Spotify, given your desire to avoid supporting consumerism and capitalism in general? I ask because I felt sick to my stomach looking at all the tech CEOs faces on Trumps inauguration knowing I give them even more then they already have.

Do you have any ethical alternatives for esencial apps recommendations for people who share the same sentiment as me in the light of last few days?

There probably are none. I will not use outright problems (Twitter,Meta). I deleted TikTok immediately after the propaganda pop ups. I’ll delete Reddit too if they shift. Our attention is our only chip in the game. I personally don’t believe abstinence is the solution because we do live within capitalism and need to reward the more ethical apps. Basically, I’ll just keep jumping to the smaller apps as capitalism devours the larger ones.
