It surprises me a lot how many people use these services. Like, you're such a gullible dummy. TV? Pirate. Music? Newpipe and Bandcamp. Taxi? Random taxi company's web API or just call. Podcasts? Patreon and Black wolf feeds.

Like, I don't know how people end up paying so much for any of this shit. Even if I was a millionaire I wouldn't change because life's so easy. Why complicate things with a gazillion subscriptions and apps I don't want on my phone.

for music I simply use the spotify family plan of someone I dated an entire decade ago and have not spoken to in years, I recommend everyone else do the same

The easiest alternative for taxis is just not using taxis. It's worked pretty well for me.
