A simple network sniffer is enough to figure out what sites the app is connecting to, then you can just block them on the router.

If you are using Android, you can do that easily right on your phone with PCAPdroid, it's on the play store. No root required.

Workplace policy leading to inherent familiarity with the system.

Plus most people aren't heavy users or particularly tech-savvy. Installing an OS from scratch is already too much to ask for most.

2033, yes.

2034 felt disjointed to a point I wasn't even sure it was written by the same person. Gave up reading eventually, about 1/3 in.

That's clickbait, not news. And definitely not worldnews.

Most FOSS apps are equal to or better than proprietary software when it comes to functionality, but look like they were coded in the stone age.

Most casual users value GUI over everything. And while I personally can overlook shitty user interfaces on apps I use once in a blue moon, for a social media app I'm using daily, that's a no go.
