There's a reason I don't use Apple products.

None of what you are saying is addressing the massive privacy violation of tracking everyone's internet habits and websites having a copy of your ID. Even if they are 100% responsible with your data, do you realize how often websites get hacked?

And they are shooting themselves in the foot.

I use discord and text messaging for my family. People keep telling me to get Facebook for marketplace but I'll use other sites for that.

People harp on the environmental problem with almond milk, but it literally uses half the water of dairy milk so until every stops drinking dairy, I'll keep using Blue Diamond for my cereal.

Meanwhile cow milk is full of estrogen because it helps the cows to lactate.

Cow milk is full of estrogen and growth hormone.

You just described a housing cooperative. This form of collective ownership aligns owner and renter/home owner stakeholders as the same person and is a special form of consumer cooperative. Housing cooperatives are especially prevalent in the nordic countries. They keep prices down as they aren't owned by shareholders who want continuous profit. The problem with this style of firm is that they tend to dissolve after the tenets collectively pay off the property and seek to sell rather than maintain or expand the cöop. This occured after world war 2 in France as a bunch of post war building were quickly built and the coops that built them were dissolved.

Yeah, but there is the authoritarian state owned housing way and the anarchist housing cooperative way. Political science isn't linear.

It's not linear. Anarchist or Libertarian Socialist systems like Syndicalism, Mutualism, Georgism, and Distributism are just as Socialist as Marxism in that they prevent the exploitation of capital accumulation, but they favor direct stakeholder ownership of firms in place of a state or other more communal systems that create an inherent hierarchy of power.
