I'm also not a fan of memes, but I acknowledge that many other people are. The most I can do is block communities that are expressly for memes and shrug off the rest. There's plenty of other places for grouches like us.
I'm in the process of de-googling, and for the most part I'm pretty okay with using separate services for things like email, photos, calendar, etc... but the few things that I really like having bundled are Google Docs and Sheets in my Google Drive.
There's plenty of good alternatives for cloud storage, but I haven't seen any that come with any sort of office-like products. I know that I can self host my own private cloud storage and something like OpenOffice, but I'm hoping to find an existing cloud solution so I don't have to bother with that maintenance.
Any recommendations?
You're right that there's a lot of spam, but I use Craigslist all of the time for finding stuff like furniture, tools, appliances, etc. Still seems pretty good in those categories.

On one hand, there will always be idiots and those who will take advantage of them.
On the other hand, I think less people would be susceptible to "alternative" remedies if there was more trust in the medical industry. That trust has been eroded quite a bit over the years.
In what way? I'm not aware of any controversy around Schiff.
According to the article, it's the US FDA.
I actually feel the opposite about those two series. Foundation series diverges from the books in a really fun and welcome way. Silo series felt pretty watered down from the books.
Another one that gets me is "portal". I'm often asked to create a this portal or that portal, but once I finally get them to describe the requirements it's just a standard web form or static web page.
Aside from IFTTT going paid, it'd be tough wading through every mention to spot just the legit notice of an upcoming expedition.
I tend to not hear about expeditions until it's too late... does anyone know of a way to get email or push notifications for upcoming expeditions?
I think the question is: how much of this change can really be attributed to Fairphone? The right to repair fight has been gaining momentum for some time, and while Fairphone may be helping somewhat, it also feels like it's just riding the wave.
Sorry, this doesn't sound at all familiar to me... have you tried one of the groups on Goodreads? There's one called "what's the name of that book?" that has a ton of members and will likely get you any answer.
Apparently it stands for Computer, I guess to distinguish them from TTRPGs. Had to Google it because they never bothered to spell out the initialized term in the article.
I switched to Tidal a while ago, mainly because they seem to pay the artists better than most other services. They are lacking many of the convenient features of other services, like controlling the app on my pc from my phone, or collaborative playlists, but I've gotten used to not having those. I would definitely recommend if you're just looking for a way to stream music without cheating the artists.
