This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

how can you even harden a proprietary walled garden

There are ways. Privacy Guides has a page on it. I also use NextDNS, which has a blocklist for iDevices, so Apple can't track me (afaik).

I'd rather have an Android, though. Either DivestOS or /e/. I'm just waiting for my iPhone to burn out first.
