    I used to love technology.

    More and more technology has become dependent on remote servers, which not only fucks up reliability but also allows them to install stupid fucking DRM in everything, upsell subscriptions, and take away features on a fucking whim.

    I don’t buy anything that doesn’t need an internet connection or doesn’t have a FOSS alternative, which is almost nothing these days.

    It makes me super fucking sad.
