Paris Marx has assembled a long list of software he uses (or has considered) on his quest to ditch US- based tech: https://disconnect.blog/getting-off-us-tech-a-guide/

The way he did it is a good example how to communicate and promote alternatives: personal, warm and not overwhelming. I think #infopankai could do something like this.

Although the very premise is debatable: why @parismarx is grounding his fight on national basis (against US based tech), and not for digital commons? Maybe to still have some foreign corporate, more polished options, and make ir more appealing to general politicized Canadian audience?

Paris seems to have good intuition for balancing technical choices with reach, without being too radical in either direction. Maybe also something to learn.
