Digitization has been declining steadily. We get these periods of quick degradation.
Instead of feeling despair, learn how to fight it, how to improve it. Join and aid likeminded communities.
Do not give up, archive, popularize p2p, fight back.
Protect yourself to protect others.
Same here, I think we're heading for worse times, and things will continuously get worse. However, sitting on our asses feeling sorry for ourselves wont make any difference and will only hinder us, Ive kicked my hoarding up to 11 these last few days, and in a way its nice and easy when the target demographic is you yourself. Outside of that Ive started fiddling around with I2P and IRC. Obv. TOR has always been an option but it has its own issues, good enough for scouting the normieweb once they start strictly enforcing the verification. Giving up and whining can feel good in the moment, but it has 0 lasting or effective impact. The times are changing, but that doesnt mean we have to give up and stop trying altogether.

There's a whole world out there anon. Just b/c we're undesirable at home doesn't mean that's the case everywhere.
