Thanks to @leanderlindahl, I was alerted to a monthly event that MastoCanucks should participate in. The 1st Sunday of every month has been pronounced Digital Independence Day & the #did hashtag is spreading across Europe. It's a day to celebrate when you have stopped using U.S. tech and switched to an in-country or open source solution. Get involved by using the #CDNdid tag and let us know what U.S. tech you recently dumped.

People will happily tell me there are plenty of non-US options for maps, and there are, but none I could find also included live public transit itineraries, which is critical for me! This one has been checking all the boxes so far.

@ElbowsUpforDigitalSovereignty
I'm transitioning my gmail account to my junk mail account, the one I give out to corporations and only check when I need a confirmation code.... let google incur the cost of the spam (even if it's tiny per person it ads up)

@ElbowsUpforDigitalSovereignty I’ve done that a few years ago. My official email lives in FastMail now (Australian company)

@RantingCanuck I am trying to do this as well. Which email provider are you using as an alternative? @ElbowsUpforDigitalSovereignty
