It's been a while but the recording of the English version of my #LeavingBigTech talk at @npub1mdf2...yk5l earlier this year is finally online! It's my first time in English and I had to shorten it in 15 min. You can notice it I fear, at one point I even made a mistake mispronouncing VPN as VPS. I felt so dumb hearing that 😬. Oh dear... Well, gotta start somewhere, in general the story is there and knowledge is shared 😅. Watch it here:

Jessica Tran - Leaving Big Tech

Big Tech has woven itself into our lives, but often acts against the interests of it

I voted for the NPO RADIO 2 TOP 2000 😎! The biggest, most important chart in the world (ok maybe just The Netherlands but to us it is). The one and only. The one we end each year with, finishing right at midnight on new years eve. A tradition almost as old as me 🧑‍🦳. Just wanted to share, for those who forget without a reminder or who like to share the spirit. Find my list here:

In case you needed even more #research into social media being bad for you. #Harvard Medical School also published this yesterday. > A 1-week social media detox intervention significantly reduced symptoms of anxiety by 16.1%, depression by 24.8%, and insomnia by 14.5%. https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle/2841773 #nobigtech #leavingbigtech #bigtech #socialmedia #mentalhealth #health #HealthResearch #hardvardmedicalschool
