Not to be rude but how many alternatives could there be? Unless you mean for iCloud and some FOSS apps? Why not just post in a FOSS com?

There’s a lot of options when you check https://alternativeto.net/

The corpos want you to think you have no other options.

Because we need a community focused on moving away from Apple. FOSS communities are too general for that. We also discuss hardware alternatives.

I get that for apps but how many discussions need to happen about alternatives to iPhone, MacBook, AirPods, etc? It isn’t Google, it’s not hard to get a diff phone.

Sometimes people ask what are the alternatives for hardware options. I find myself looking for better devices that are more repairable. Also the transfer data of from IOS to a different operating system can be complicated.
