Going to be contrarian.

Why not build your own hardware and run your own software on it, instead of screaming at clouds of big tech.

There is Fairphone as an example so it is possible to build/buy hardware directly.

Yes, let me just invest 100 billion dollars into creating my own device so that I'm not censored by one of the biggest companies on Earth.

Jesus fucking Christ. We're asking for a drop here from a mega corporation, and still there will be people bending over backwards and spreading their cheeks and actually begging for it. Its not enough to get fucked, we actually have to want to get fucked, and not wanting it is weird or something.
