“Paris Marx has offered a guide for how people can get off U.S. tech, highlighting the challenges while supporting individual effort. Doing so should be a national ambition, especially as we consider the risk of the U.S. blocking access to tech.”

Switching to EU alternatives is a right choice.

However, it should be down thoroughly, otherwise the EU one still relies on US tech.
For instance, French AI leader Mistral AI ( @MistralAI ) uses Cloudflare.
So when Cloudflare got broken last year, Mistral became unavailable too, let alone Cloudflare serves as the man-in-the-middle, can see unencrypted traffic.

Nice blog post, but in your list the Europea Snapchat alternative is missing :)

https://twonly.eu/en/blog/05-diday.html

From Snapchat to twonly

twonly is a new alternative to Snapchat—only with end-to-end encryption, no ads, no tracking, and no addictive features. In short: your moments remain your moments and cannot be viewed by others.
