In regards to #Apple, #Google and #Fascism, I see folks grossly oversimplifying with this logic:
All the choices are bad, we have to choose one or the other bad option. All or nothing, there's nothing else to be done.
I'm still using an iPhone and an iPad. Yep. But I'll stab myself in the eye with a stick before I buy a new one. My iPhone 13 is only 3.5 years old. I can easily get at least another 3-4 years more from it.
And it's still very useful without iCloud or other Apple services.
