It's cool that we're all choosing open EU alternatives to Big Tech because we want to protect our data..

@Chapz We also can't expect these alternatives to become as good (which a lot already are), if we don't financially support them.
@Gina Yes, but it's a chicken and egg problem - they first need to be good to pay them, and they need payments to get good.
Not many individuals or businesses can realistically justify paying the same or more, for less.

@Chapz True, that's where I think government should take the lead. Choose ethical alternatives (again, many which are already as good as it's big tech counterparts), fund improvements and contribute to the open source ecosystem.
