Hi there,
I’m currently going through some significant changes in my life. I’ll be making a professional transition soon by leaving Paris for a more rural area, but I won’t bore you with all the details.
My issue is that I really value my privacy and dislike big tech companies like gafam. To protect myself, I use Pihole and only allow an old phone to have access to meta products.
I recently caved in and reactivated my old Facebook and Instagram accounts to help with advertising, along with using a platform similar to Hootsuite to streamline things. When responding to private messages on Instagram, I use Aeroinsta to block ads and telemetry.
I’m managing okay so far, but I’ve seen the success some people have on TikTok and feel tempted to create an account. The thought of it turns my stomach, though.
If you’re in a similar situation where online communication is vital, how do you navigate it? Have you found any alternative apps for TikTok like Aerosinsta ?
I’d really appreciate hearing from you and getting some insights. Thank you for your input.
Good advice already replied. Definitely have a business-only phone and a personal-only phone. I’d consider two different phone OS’s if you can. Keep crossover data as minimal as possible.
Would love to read a follow-up post from you 6-12 months down the line. Best of luck. It’s absurd how difficult this is in 2024.
