I said this on Reddit and will say here as well.
As an European, I have nothing against Americans as individuals that like us, are shocked and troubled to what is happening with your current Administration.
And generalising that all Americans should mobilise and fight against their government is not as straightforward as many people here think.
Like us, you guys have families, kids and pets that want to stay united and protect what is most important for you: your family.
But I do have issues with your government and those who support it.
I don’t trust your government, people that support it, your tech infrastructure or any company that aligns with this whole mess.
And that’s why I’m migrating everything to Europe. From cloud, to tech, to operating systems, to socials.
That’s why I just created my Lemmy account, and considering deleting Reddit.
I’m still stuck with Apple’s ecosystem, but will find a way to break free.
I’m a software developer and will start developing apps that will serve me and potentially others, but will be based in Europe and will not depend on others that in any moment can cut off the access just because…
US tech is a big pile of garbage.
All of it is to make you addicted, to track you, to influence you, to collect all sort of intel about you, and then use that against you. And they will serve you ads as the cherry on top.
For me they can all disappear and be gone. There are plenty of activities (internet or otherwise) that can be done without that pile of shit.
I have Proton with custom domain as email service, I have my own encrypted backup in an European VPS, have my own private cloud also in European VPS.
Don’t need US garbage.
