Another vote for european-alternatives.eu - so far I've dropped a few streaming services, switched iCloud for kDrive, switched gmail for kMail with. For Amazon I've started buying direct wherever possible and I'm already finding it saving a lot of money. For photography I'm using Darktable (free)

Thank you so much! It was so lovely to meet you and the other examiners in person today - with lots of interesting discussion. It’s been a long journey but so grateful to be at the finish line! Thanks also to my incredible supervisors Dr Tom Russ and @susanshenkin.bsky.social
Had the pleasure of examining Katherine Walesby on her PhD today. Congratulations to her on phenomenal thesis on dementia epidemiology and working with datasets in both Scotland and New Zealand. Thoroughly well deserved.
