@TootSweet I've injested food from chickfila once in my life and entered a walmart four times and purchased something twice. As an adult I've been in Texas twice and spent some money there both times, once on a motorcycle tour and once for a conference. I will not go back again for any reason until they reinstate human rights. Same with Florida and a few other states. I know that there're good people there and in the two businesses I mentioned but I'll go elsewhere, thanks.

Telus because fuck Telus.
But also fuck bell. And fuck Rogers.
Oh you know, school, the marriage institution, the CPS, Autism Speaks, the usual.
Reddit.
Had an account for 9.5 yrs.
-First they kill all the good 3rd party apps.
-Then I get called a ‘fucking idiot’ for asking a question, but I get a temp suspension for telling the person to fuck off.
I deleted my account. Not going to try to appeal to a site that’s dying. They don’t deserve my input. 😁

Amazon, Google (except for YouTube, there's really no alternative), Facebook, Twitter and social media in general, EA, Ubisoft and Epic Games, Nestlé and food with excessive plastic wrapping, food delivery services
Nestle is my only major boycott but also technically Hasbro. Still play DND but I'm moving to pathfinder soon. Hasbro doesn't get a dime tho
-Reddit, for obvious reasons
-all food delivery apps, the service is absolute garbage
-I'm vegetarian as long as I'm cooking for myself, for environmental reasons
-a bunch of musicians who proved to be fucking morons in the last 8 years or so
Cheaperthandirt.com has pulled enough stunts to make me permanantly shun them. The thing that sticks out the most for me is canceling confirmed orders so that they could turn around and put items back on their storepage for a massively inflated price.
The Sims. Love the series but they really fuck their fans with the DLC with it being repackaged content from prior games, bundled awkwardly, and overpriced.
Nintendo because their stance on modding grinds my gears.
I don't know if I'll buy another Raspberry Pi product partially because they acted rather immature in 2022 when there was some controversy over someone they hired. Also their products being quite expensive when companies like Pine64 sell decent products.
well i guess im boycotting Reddit and then uhhh i guess il boycott uhhh ns-nope uhh mabye tenor yea i suppose that
Ever since the whole chat reporting thing coming to mincemeat java edition, I have boycotted that for the Mintest game engine just because I ain't willing to play a voxel sandbox game where I can get banned all because I feel like being an adult and saying profanity.
A lot of stuff. All streaming services. I even boycott entire us states, at least where applicable.
