To anyone out there who’s successfully convinced someone else to switch from a mainstream app / service to a self-hosted / indie / #FOSS alternative:
What worked?
Pitching this kind of switch could become a core part of my business soon. I’d love to know what aspects of such a change have the broadest appeal!
(Boosts much appreciated 🙏)

Romania Update:
The person with the most votes is George Simon, a guy who campaigned with Georgescu (the one who was banned from running). Now there will be another election in a few weeks to decide between the top and 2nd.
The 2nd is a math professor who is very popular, is not a politician, and is the favorite of my wife.
One day after Simon came in with the most votes, he was seen at the airport boarding a plane to Vienna. Vienna is of course an intelligence hotbed so anyone with a head on his shoulders knows this looks like he's doing deals with RU.
The whole situation is fucked, if they ALSO ban this guy from running, they might as well skip elections because they're pointless anyway - but if he wins, he might well be a foreign asset (*cough* Obama).
My opinion is that they never should have taken a bite out of the "banned from politics" apple, and now who the hell knows what will happen to them.

@frost Maybe a little bit of both. Due to the (semi)-anonymous nature of the Internet where people can "go dark" and change accounts, it's hard to know for sure.

My shoulder feels like it's going to cave in on itself - I curse my lack of a comfortable chair.
Anyway... DONE.
I don't care if some parts look a little "off" here and there - DONE.

Wow, the UN adopted @CryptPad 🥳
Did you know my friends started CryptPad, and I was one of the first paying customers way back in 2017?
I couldn't be more proud of their amazing work, and to witness their iconic journey.
It was my friend @ansuz who built a lot of CryptPad, that suggested I apply to NLnet.
And then Pixelfed became the first fediverse project funded by NLnet in 2019.
You love to see it.
@wowaname The fact that people still respond to hachi despite the low-tier bait makes me really question the intelligence of everyone here.
@eliasr "Non-normie" side.
@ooignignoktoo Not to mention that more people would just pirate foreign movies if tariffs are placed on them.
@beardalaxy I've seen Poast(-adjacent) users shitting on Linux users many times.
I really hate how this side of the Internet keeps on flip flopping on issues. Like I remember when people would make fun of you for using Windows or macOS and call you a pleb if you aren't using a FOSS OS like Linux or BSD. Now, people will tell you that Linux is for trannies and that you are delusional for believing in the year of the Linux desktop, and that you are better off sticking to Windows.
That's just one example, but it's just one of the many reasons why I just rather be myself than conform into any community's culture.
