Yeah, I do the same these days. It's amazing how freeing it is to be able to trust the app you're running, and not have to constantly be on the look out for dark patterns, "integrations" you didn't ask for, sneaky updates, change of ownership due to an "incredible journey" with a FAANG/MAGA company or a Chinese equivalent. I'll take the more limited choice and the general lack of UI polish any day, for these benefits.
