There are plenty of european alternatives and for services you can self host plenty. I use an iphone because of an unfortunate circumstance - which I deeply despise - but I turned off icloud and I fully self host everything: immich for photo video, baikal for val/card dav sync, i use tuta mail, etc.

Stopping using big tech is perfectly doable, you just have to want it enough. Start self hosting of cloud host with european providers and offer it to family and friends.

Do it! Let’s see you do it Donny, you fascist POS! You don’t have the cojones!

I was never a fan of LTT, or his videos, but I did watch one video, his Pop os one and that immediately confirmed why.
