I sat down and made a bunch of spreadsheets. You can start with a full list of all the apps on your phone, and which email and phone numbers you used to register (if that is what you did) with them. I wanted a clean separation so I had like new numbers and a paid email account for use after the shift.

I marked down every app that had data that I wanted to preserve, particularly those without cloud based storage of that data (things like online marketplaces dont really have any relevant data you need to manually copy over to your new phone). Apps like netflix does not need to be migrated.

I also wanted to replace youtube with newpipe and for that I needed to port over my subscriptions (over a thousand on youtube) so I sat down one day to sort just that part out and only chose those creators I thought I really wanted to follow (No more slop!). I got it down to like 300 that day.

Sorry for the word wall, I think I got carried away.

Drop me a message if you have any questions about the move or any blockers you think I could help with. Always happy to help with these things.

There is so much going on it's hard to figure out what this ad is for. Pizzas? Those cans on the right?

I am fine with it being used in the context of AI generated content.

Anything else and I agree.

Reminder that every sizable company in the attention economy retains amongst its employees individuals who have the academic and professional background to fine tune their systems to make and keep a vice grip on the attention of it's users/victims, regardless of the negative effects it has on the micro level for an individual victim, or the macro level on society as a whole.

Obligatory nutty putty cave mention.

Stay where the sky can see you unless you have a very good reason to go down there.

Not to mention, the Brutalist architecture interior will look the same in 20 years, while any other kind would just look dilapidated and aged as shit. As long as someone is living in there, concrete don't age, son. And even if it falls apart, just make some more concrete to fill it in.
