🚨⚠️ATTENTION FELLOW WRITERS⚠️🚨

If you use Google Docs for your writing, I highly encourage you to download your work, delete it from Google Docs, and transfer it to a different program/site, unless you want AI to start leeching off your hard work!!!

I personally have switched to Libre Office, but there are many different options. I recommend checking out r/degoogle for options.

Please reblog to spread the word!!

Crypt Pad can be an option too!

Aaaand another reason to STEP AWAY FROM THE CLOUD

And before you ask, yes, I am dead serious and I mean every fucking cloud service EVER

Store your stuff on your machine

work on your stuff offline

Do NOT USE GOOGLE DOCS

Do NOT USE MICROSOFT WORD 2010+

“But I need access from different devices!” Buy yourself a usb-stick and a usba -a to usb-c adapter

“But I need to SHARE” Send e-mails (but NOT with Gmail!)


This is why I, working in IT, straight up refuse to work with such “services”.

This is why I re-installed Word ‘97 (again, not joking).

After everyone freaked out over AO3 being down, I hope folks have come to the realization that *authors* are the ones keeping y’all so entertained that the idea of not having your favorite fic to read on demand sent you into a frenzy.

So, y’know, maybe drop a comment on your favorite fic to let the author know you appreciate them and their work 🙂
