Every single one... unfortunately, you just have to live in this world 🤷.

Taco Bell has tried to kill me more than once. After the 6th time I said enough was enough.

EA, for destroying many of the dev companies and game franchises I loved growing up.

Nestlé, for destroying the planet, stealing water, and poisoning kids in less-developed countries.

I’m over it now, but for 5 years I was anti-public transit. After working a 12 hour OT shift I took the train home. Sherriff was on the train and started checking peoples tickets. I opened my bag dug around literally 30+ other tickets, found my day pass and turned it over.

But I didn’t get a day pass that day, I got a one way because of my OT plans was supposed to be an Uber home.

So I got fined $250 for it. The crazies would just get pushed off the train but normals would get fined I guess. Pissed me off so much I just stopped using the public transit for half a decade.

This is a colossal list

[–] Willy@sh.itjust.works 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I still deal with every company people here are listing. I even really like some of them despite the owners views etc. (if you make a good chicken sandwich and beat your wife, I’m still gonna eat that sandwich while hoping you go to jail).

I have not seen anyone mentioning Reddit yet though, and that kinda shocks me. I know it’s not the same as giving them a dollar but they’ve received no eyeballs, add revenue or obviously content from me since the exodus.

Google, Amazon and Facebook will never see another cent, ad-view or personalized data point from me.
So far, this has affected relatively little to be honest. The most impact was losing access to WhatsApp.

The only one I truly boycott to that extent is Wal-Mart. It's just so incredibly easy. There's always another place to get the thing.
