It might be the best idea to deprecate it.”

Codeberg Pages if you don't mind a give-or-take weekly 30 min downtime. GitHub Pages if you do. GitLab Pages if you have a creditcard which they require to verify your identity.

Last year I did so by writing the essay “What if I paid for all my free software?” It came across well. Now I'm thinking of ways to reach a broader audience in order to not only be preaching to the choir.

During an inconspicuous math class in my final year of highschool I suddenly had enough of going in front of the classroom to solve a math problem. I love math, was good at it, but doing it live doesn't sit well with mathematical anxiety. When it was my turn the teacher asked “Marcus, want to go in front please?” Then it hit me that that's a question. So I gathered my guts while my heart was racing and replied “Would you mind if I said I'd rather not?” The teacher laughed and said “Yeah that's fine.” My classmates' minds were blown. I didn't need to go in front for the rest of the year with which he made me king. I loved him; we always appreciated each other's humour.

But it doesn’t matter, because everyone else uses Gmail, so any time I communicate with someone, Google reads my emails, despite the fact that I never agreed to their oppressive ToS.

That's avoidable by PGP encrypting your emails though. But I'm sure you know that, and I'm sure you meant that getting most people to use PGP is a pipe dream.
