That's really helpful thanks
@CheeseToastie Spending my money in autocratic countries is like buying them the weapons they will point at me to take away my freedom.
Giving my data to them is pretty much the same as they monetize it.
Moving away from US based/owned/managed services. But it takes times. Email and photos are the Hardest for me. Email because of all the account integrations and many accounts where you just can't change your email address and photos as it requires all people involved in shared albums to migrate with me.
Moving email is hard indeed.
The easiest way forward is to get your own domain, it's about 10EUR a year, but that doesn't help retroactively.
