  Just don’t use any websites/apps to buy/pay for things unless absolutely necessary.

    But what about all my patreon subscriptions? There is people relying on me!

      Not much could be done if we did pressure them like that. Sacrifices sometimes need to be made to keep the elite in line.

  I’m not a tech bro saying this, never used it before myself, but crypto seems like a sensible solution to that. Which is good cuz that means they can actually operate as currencies instead of investments

    Most legit websites don’t take crypto, though.

    Individual purchases, sure, but I’ll just be delaying them for a months so that’s not really hurting them. The bigger issue is canceling dozens of subscriptions for a month (and then having to re-subscribe to everything). That sounds like a hassle.

    And even switching to cash in stores sounds very annoying. I’d have to use a cashier checkout, which means standing in line and then you have to fumble around with cash and wait for change …

    … nope. I can’t do it.
