American social media companies are also controlled by foreign powers. I have no interests in common with the ultra wealthy and massive corporations that control this country. They are just as foreign to me as anyone in another country. I trust them less than I trust TikToc.

Right, but if you know all of them can't be trusted than the only logical thing to do is leave them behind, all of them.

Have you done so?

Actually, yes. The only exception would be YouTube, but I don't let the algorithm tell me what to watch. I have a handful of channels I follow, and sometimes look up a howto video.

you can subscribe to channels locally via newpipe or freetube, in case you want to degoogle.
