EU is going down the same path. The “EU alternative” stuff is just bogus. It’s just a matter of time before EU starts doing the same.

It's not bogus if you are yourself European or if the alternative is Big Tech. But I feel you. There are lots of shitty European companies that are not that much better. I avoided the switch to Spotify because even though they are "European" they gave a lot of money to Joe Rogan and to Trump on his inauguration.

Also, the EU did recently reject the chat control proposal so at least that's something...
