After CSAM, I switched the main office machines to Manjaro. A lot of my colleagues sold their beloved iPhones and moved to De-Googled Android.

Luckily, the fiasco with Little Snitch was resolved, and I can enjoy a mac for occasional design work, but Figma is running well in the Browser and if I see any attempt to push me into Ad Hell, it is totally over.

Vertical integration is important for Apple, but as an old Apple user, this will be "no-fly zone" for me.

Actually, CSAM had a positive in my life. Since then, I am using my smartphone less and with basic apps, some banking, calls and chatting.

Same here - the constant iCloud upgrade prompts in macOS pushed me to Fedora Linux, and I’ve been a happy camper ever since (performance on the same mac hardware increased significantly too).

If this ad stuff is true, I’ve been eyeing a switch from iPhone to postmarketOS on the Oneplus 6 - the mobile phosh Linux experience is really starting to look pretty daily drivable for my simpler phone use cases.
