I have been trying to take my digital privacy more seriously as of late, but I find myself falling into a cycle of all-or-nothing. I will do a little bit to improve my privacy and then will suddenly feel like I need to go full-on down the rabbit hole. This leads to burnout, and then I’ll convince myself that it’s all futile and I should just use what’s most convenient.

How do you all find a balance that works for you? Or do you just change things constantly?

dont worry about the all or nothing mindset because it is all right in the end to be as private as your threat model needs to be, no need to go 100% or 0% with something like this
