Since the US government is setting clocks back to the early 1940's, what are some recommended time servers that aren't dependent on the US?

It is so hilarious to me that we have FOSS maintainers begging for money to try to keep the development of NTP ongoing. NTP - you know, that protocol that the entirety of humanity relies on for access to the internet (or anything on a network for that matter).
Meanwhile the o̶l̶i̶g̶a̶r̶c̶h̶y̶ broligarchy makes billions of the backs of these people.
Anyways, they're currently at $495 of $1000 for their 2025 goal. Go throw them some $ if you feel so inclined.

Let's take a moment to remember the guy who made sure we don't have to change Every Goddamn Clock today, David L. Mills, creator of Network Time Protocol (NTP) who passed last year.
My wristwatch is synced to my phone, which is synced to the internet, which knows that time it is right now thanks to David Mills. Cheers to his memory 🥃
