Disclaimer: While I advocate for creating alternative markets and reducing reliance on big technology, we must acknowledge the reality of navigating the systems shaped by capitalism—such as Facebook, Microsoft, Google, and Apple. Using their products isn’t hypocritical; it’s a pragmatic step in leveraging the tools available to us as we work toward building and supporting more equitable, sustainable alternatives. Together, we can use these resources mindfully while striving for better models.
