Digg, I don't even remember why. It's been like 10 years.
Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Uber, HP.
Also, specifically in France: Casino, Monoprix, Leader-Price (now owned by Casino).
If you want to watch honor among thieves but don't want to support Hasbro, just raise the black flag (and your VPN) and pirate it
Many things actually. I'm in the process of degoogling and ditching ms office. Ditched reddit. Ditched discord. I'm also ditching android apps and switching to FOSS versions if i can find them. And today i ditched Startpage. I just found this article about them: https://restoreprivacy.com/startpage-system1-privacy-one-group/
I'm also trying to get rid of plastic and replacing plastic things if i can. So, no more plastic cutting boards, switched them for glass ones. Dental floss in a cardboard box. Things like that.

Keeping track of what to boycott became to burdensome, so I'm just kinda doing a universal boycott where I buy everything possible second hand.
Hobby Lobby is probably one of the biggest on my shitlist
I don't know if I boycott. I refuse to do business with certain companies, if that counts. I suppose that's what a boycott is.
- Google, first and foremost
- Microsoft
- Meta
- Apple
- Visa
- MasterCard
- Paypal, including Venmo
- all banks
- oil change places
- all outlet stores
There's probably more I'm not thinking of. Generally speaking I use all FOSS software, always buy things used from a person who owns it, don't buy processed food and cook my own 99% of the time, don't use chemical products on my skin or in the shower, buy clothes used and use cash for everything. For Amazon, which I do use, I get gift cards.

Iβm trying to avoid products made in China, with varying success.
Am also vegetarian if I get the choice (which isnt always)
Edit; I appear to also be boycotting fast fashion if unintentionally. I wear clothes until they are worn out and then some
Does your Hasbro boycott extend to the products of others licensing rights from them?
Because, though I totally get and agree with your point about Hasbro, having to skip Baldurs Gate 3 would be a huge test of your resolve if you're anything like me π
All meat and animal origin products
Still researching, but thinking about adding trader joes after reading this: https://jacobin.com/2023/08/trader-joes-workers-independent-unionism-organizing-tju-grocery-store
Right now I've completely given up candy and soda for about 3 years now. I hate the business practices of candy companies and how they target children and make their shit as addictive as possible. They use ultra vibrant packaging to get kids eyes to lock to the product and they know kids will beg for it until they get it and they put it on their eye level and on the sides of the checkout lines.
The entire candy thing is just scummy and I hate it so much. I personally see it as legal drugs for children.
Amy's Foods until the strikers say otherwise. I support BDS always. No fast food, no fast fashion.
Totally boycotting micro$oft (except for leeching from github)
boycotting Israel as much as I can (a medication I depend on comes from there, unfortunately)
Fast food, it's just bad and unhealty
eBay as a buyer, selling stuff there opened my eyes as how much that platform sucks.
AAA game studios, kinda. I just pirate them.

Red Bull (loved their cola) and War Thunder. One has a Nazi Boss and the other is just shitty to its players.
Ever since the whole chat reporting thing coming to mincemeat java edition, I have boycotted that for the Mintest game engine just because I ain't willing to play a voxel sandbox game where I can get banned all because I feel like being an adult and saying profanity.
