I'm fed up with websites that by default give priority to big tech platforms, like when did all of humanity agree that; Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, Twitter, Reddit, Twitch, Goodreads are the websites that everyone is expected to have an account on?!

And the custom links feature is completely treated as an after-thought!

so if you're setting up your account on whatever service.. like say Github or whatever... you probably noticed this special care for Big tech linking

All i want is for my page to look better, but I don't wanna create an account on any of these shitty surveillance platforms, so let's hit two birds with one stone, shall we!

I need your help! share resources you know.. about Big tech.. I'm especially looking for a dedicated website that document each company abuses, and I'll use these links.. so that:

  1. my landing page looks populated (aesthetic)
  2. Those who visit can learn something

(Now imagine if a lot of people started doing this!) lol xD ... better than the clippy movement IMO

I already got a website for Facebook and I'm looking for others dedicated to IG, TK.. etc..

still, if you have something better, do link it below.. it's preferable if it's a dedicated website, and not some form of wiki or a social media post.

Thanks in advance

For all its flaws, githubs profile linking is freeform and will even put the Mastodon logo + the rel=me tag if you specify a Mastodon address
