nature sounds! they help me focus and relax :)

earth.fm is now at 700+ recordings

wow this look awesome!

That’s impossible unfortunately. Money alone won’t “buy” a guilt free, business-as-usual lifestyle in the face of this emergency. I suggest doing a bit more research to see for yourself what I mean.

Can anyone recommend some really privacy-focused VPNs?

Wait, you’ve borrowed the sword to peel off some gigantic potatoes right? That’s nice!

Feel free to share your journey on dm or on the forum https://community.ethical.net

The most basic ethical thing to do is simply being nice. Is that a popular thing on HN? :)

Thanks for taking time to contribute to the cause :)

Hey, thanks for stopping by.

So better not bother even thinking about ethics at all?

Thanks for sharing! I've been personally trying to move away from everything google and it's SO difficult. Gmail and Maps are the last things I'm using, but I am still hopeful. I feel it's more of an addiction than anything else really.

Thanks for sharing, we've got this a lot, so kinda got used to it as the default reply, especially in the tech community :)

As others have mentioned here, there's a strong barrier to entry for most of things, including Mastodon :) We're still figuring things out, and that's totally OK: https://news.ycombinator.com/showhn.html

hmm not sure which one you refer to but there are quite a few carbon offsetting projects like https://www.myclimate.org/

Great points! Short answer: it's an imperfect mix of open source, privacy centered, indie projects vs proprietary, mainstream corporations, VC funded etc. Hope that you and others interested in this topic will get involved with criticism ans suggestions here on on our forum in order to improve the list, devise a clearer "checklist" for listings, submit more stuff, etc: https://community.ethical.net/t/suggestions-for-our-ethical-...

hey there, can you share with the entire list you're thinking of? we've switched from google analytics to self hosted matomo last week, and planning to switch again to fathom for example. thanks!

On it. I am on Chrome with ABP and I don't get this issue. Which browser are you using?

we're also collecting alternatives here: https://ethical.net/resources/

Well, Mailchimp is starting their own “ecommerce platform” after hiring people from the now defunct LemonStand. How about that for the real reason for pulling them off the Shopify app store? :)

I know there are some, but not sure about "plenty".

Check out the latest YC cohort: I counted less than 10 startups interested in sustainable business out of 170+

The rest not even aknowledge the fact that we are in a climate crisis.

I was surprised to see YC support startups involved in animal farming, guns, and even fossil fuel!!

We spend so much time in front of our screens that we have no idea of what's happening outside our little boxes :/
