Nothing special, just wanted to make a post because I'm extremely proud of myself today. Reddit was the only thing holding me back, and I'm happy to say that I've just deleted my 8 year old account. I'm now only using open source apps for my android and desktop OS and it feels amazing!

This isn't an all-or-nothing thing.

For Windows users, it's already a good progress to switch to Firefox/VLC/LibreOffice/NextCloud from closed source alternatives.

Firefox and VLC were my gateway drugs when I was a teeny pirate discovering the Internet and even computers :)

Dashero is doing great work with coreboot. Several latop vendors sell it preinstalled
