This isn't that hard for me - I'm very comfortable with Linux and I'm not hooked on my phone.
I liked having a nice machine with a nice ui on top of a real Unix. But it has been getting a harder to figure what and why MacOS communicates with the mothership, and I just don't think I trust them now.

I got my first Mac in 1991. I might be typing on my last.
Bluntly, the apparent eagerness Cook has for tongue-bathing Piggy Trump has me thinking about the ways in which I currently implicitly trust Apple with very personal data.

Advice like this is indistinguishable from how a malicious insider would try to gaslight people.
