Honestly, I find it to be miserable at first too, which really sucks. I've stopped and started exercising multiple times in my life and it's always difficult for me to get back into for this reason. However, I've found that if I comfortably push through I get to a point where I'm struggling less and it becomes more satisfying. That's when I start enjoying it because I can start setting specific goals and working towards them.

OP this is a big improvement from your previous post. It's an excellent starting point for folks who are looking to start using a VPN. There's a lot of constructive criticism in here, which is good, but might be discouraging. Just know that this is already very useful for many people.

Fair point. Let's add positively to the discussion then. An admittedly easy place to start is Google search. Here are some alternatives to try:

  • Startpage
  • DuckDuckGo (FYI partially uses Bing i.e., Microsoft)
  • Ecosia

None of the above are perfect, but all are much better in terms of their impacts on others IMO.

My personal favorite is Decapitated. Try the song "Spheres of Madness" first. If you really dig that sound and would like something faster and more aggressive, check out the album "Winds of Creation". If the production value isn't high enough for you, you can check out some newer stuff. I like the songs "Veins" on "Blood Mantra" and "Impulse" on "Anticult".

Hanabi - a pretty simple card game in which you work together to put on a fireworks show. You can't see your own hand, but instead can see everyone else's. Others give you hints about what's in your hand so you can make plays.

10-minute dungeon - a kickstarter table top game where you tear through as many dungeons/monsters as possible in 10-minute increments (I think). It's been awhile since I've played it, but I have very fond memories of it.

Then you are not and never were an ally. I have "White Fragility" by Robin DiAngelo on my reading list. You might consider adding it to yours as well
