  • The enshittification of services, e.g. chefkoch.de suddenly coming up with premium cooking receipts, and other sites moving this behind paywalls. Tandoor for the win.

    Youtube and the ad war - metube, tubearchivist.

    My son being hooked up by “Paw patrol”, resulting in some big meltdowns and fights. Another win for tubearchivist.

    ll the services which increase their prices (Spotify, Disynes, Netflix) - the arr collection and 60 TB storage on my NAS, with Jellyfin and tubearchivist.

    Google becoming the most evil company - moved to Protonmail, with my own domain and my own email address.

    Ads in general, but especially YT - ublock origin, AdGuard Home.

    The simplicity of installing complex software thanks to docker, and the possibility to embed anything in the network thx to Ubound and Opnsense.

    And so on.

    I feel it is becoming more and more a battle against the internet, and not surfing/enjoying it. Everything monetized, all of them want you to drag you into subscribing to another service, adding up into hundreds of dollars/month cost, and after hooking you up, increase the prices.
