Agree, but my comment is more on the second part of the phrase: "No one on their deathbed has ever regretted giving too much away." - I'm not sure this is completely true.

"giving too much away" is not only material stuff. You can give too much time away, mainly taking care of others that should be able to find a way to take care of themselves (obviously not talking about elderly people).

I'm married to a nurse, and I know a lot of people on the field. I'm constantly amazed how they are wired to take care of others before themselves.

> Optimize your generosity. No one on their deathbed has ever regretted giving too much away.

Not sure if I agree completely. I've seen people regret giving their life to the service of others and not noticing they were not living their own life until too late.

nunorbatista··on De-Googling: My Progress
I'm surprised by not seeing more comments against the OP moving from Google to move almost everything to Apple & Facebook. I've also started a similar process but haven't managed to ditch Google completely yet, mainly for convenience. Because my concern was mainly privacy, I started by adding a pi-hole in the home network and that allowed me to block an infinite number of tracking codes and ads. This improved the overall internet experience for everyone. I've also attached a HDD to the raspberry pi and created a network drive. With the help of a good script the backups are automatic and silent.

For messaging, Telegram FTW, but can't seem to convince a lot of my friends to move over.
