From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Someone else wrote about how you’ll have a problem creating feature parity and integration like apple services. They’re right.
A better idea is the thing everyone always says: make a threat model.
The easiest thing to do for an Apple user is to simply make an iCloud recovery key, turn on advanced data protection and remove any account recovery method other than the key.
I would also gently counsel against trusting prismbreaks recommendations without research as they still point people at federated services where any bad or coerced administrative actor federated with the target users platform has access to a huge swath of data that most users would put in the category of “private”.
