Better Than That

[In the summertime] I don’t use Youtube, I use Peertube
[in the summertime] (for uploads, Invidious for viewing)
[In the summertime] I won’t use Insta, it’s Pixelfed
[In the summertime] I fucked off Facebook for Friendica
[In the summertime] X/Twitter whatever find me on Mastodon
[In the summertime] I shed it, Reddit for Piefed
[In the summertime] Tik Tok it won’t take long for your groups
[in the summertime] to flick flock to loops

[In the summertime] This is the Fediverse
[In the summertime] I’m genre fluid
[In the summertime] As Fedi flourishes
[In the summertime] give me a wave (bonkwave)

[In the summertime] Spotify rotted, I jumped on Bandwagon
[In the summertime] Rotten Apple Music, Faircamp’s fresh
[In the summertime] Mirlo’s my hero
[In the summertime] I spread on Jam (dot coop)

[In the summertime] This is the Fediverse
[In the summertime] I’m genre fluid (let’s do it)
[In the summertime] Fedi flourishes
[In the summertime] Give me a wave (bonkwave)

No algorithm, no ad, no tracker, no bullys, no spies or nazis, no wonder it’s cool.
Everyone around me is a friend, not a stranger, everything feels much less of a danger. Bring it on.

[In the summertime] This is the Fediverse
[In the summertime] I’m genre fluid
[In the summertime] My Fedi flourishes
[In the summertime] Give me a wave (bonkwave)

Refusal for Google

[In the summertime] I WON’T USE GOOGLE [in a heatwave]
[In the summertime] I WON’T USE APPLE [if it’s bonkwave]
[In the summertime] I WON’T USE AMAZON [this is a heatwave]
[In the summertime] I WON’T USE MICROSOFT [if it’s not bonkwave]
[In the summertime] I WON’T USE META (there’s better than that) [let’s have a bonk rave]
[In the summertime] … [BONKWAVE]

It’s only me. I may be wrong. I’m sure there’s better still. And more will come.
It’s only me. I’m not perfect. Let the tech bros spit. I’ll respect.
It’s only me. I’m often wrong. Happy to be corrected. Bring it on.
