Championing privacy and tech freedom with friends and family has often been a thankless or worse experience for me. Being the bearer of bad news and inconvenient facts puts misplaced ire on me. Ignorance is bliss. I feel a responsibility to my friends and family and do not want to be alone in understanding. At the same time, I do not want to be hated. I really try to restrain and tone down the topic, but the ideas consume me. I guess many people here have a similar experience?

Can't say I'm much of a champion, I use Telegram and I'll only delete Whatsap in May using the new policy as an excuse, but yes, facing several issues with Nextcloud office integration and listening to why my wife is going back to Google Docs can be disheartening.
But still, she supports all my decisions and uses Linux (with Chrome and Gmail, but a big win nevertheless).
