Moving to something that’s still at significant risk of being enshittified is an objectively worse move than going to something that’s not, though. I’m not saying to keep US tech, I’m saying to build your own now so you don’t have to move again in a couple years.
If someone is able to self host then of course it’s a better solution but self hosting requires knowledge, time and money and is not for everyone. EU tech is better than US tech so if someone is not able to self host moving to European providers is the next best solution and should be encouraged.
That’s kinda my point, though. The solutions I mentioned in my original comment are already approaching the same level of simplicity as a smartphone, and they should be recommended over centralized options as much as possible. I’m not suggesting that the average person should try and host their own email, but with something like Yunohost, running a copy of Nextcloud or Seafile is about as difficult as installing their corresponding apps on your phone.
