You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make it drink, especially not when you barely have time in the day to take a drink yourself.
If someone doesn’t have time or will to put privacy over convenience that’s kind of their gig. It sucks but like I can’t fuckin’ change their life schedule/priorities.
I spend enough time documenting and working in my homelab, I don’t need other people’s too. I’ll be happy to point people towards information and documentation, but that’s about it.
However if you’re not willing to:
bury your nose in multiple wikis
change out the OS on nearly every general purpose computing device you own
Live most of your online life anonymously/pseudononymously
Run a homelab (technically not required but makes life nicer)
You should stop while you’re ahead.
If you have kids I have no fucking clue how you’d even begin.
At that point you’re installing rootkit anticheat just to get little johnny playing games with their friends, fucking nightmare scenario.
Big tech has their claws deep into education and I don’t see that changing. Parts of the world see school shootings happen, a more obvious problem than lack of software freedom/privacy, but do not think that’s bad enough to change. Having children right now may be a bad idea.
I’ve already distanced myself by deleted most (big-tech) social media platforms. Currently trying to ditch Discord but I don’t see friends do the same. Stopping now may look like a good idea but the ick would remain.
When things really matter all we have is words or violence. I have no choice but to hope that good ideas win in the end, and that the world improves over time. Just be the best you can.

Yeah I’m trying to leverage my homelab for my friends that can’t set one up just to make things even slightly better.
Ultimately there’s only so much you can do to fight fascism.
