The thing that gets me about the whole discussion about using alternatives to Google and apple is the ableism.

"Just write to the bank and ask them to change a thing. It's easy, just call them..."

Etc.

Just buy this phone, get these apps Yadda Yadda.

I think you forgot some of us are poor and have limited spoons.

Our mileage may vary.

Help other folks in your community first dudes, constantly provide support for six months.

Then I might take it seriously.
