I've also had https://ploi.io/ on my radar as an EU alternative.

Although I'm a longtime Forge user, I want to give it a try soon. The UI does not look as polished in the screenshots, but it seems to offer more features, such as file backups.

Forge appears to be quite a critical part of the infrastructure, given its root access to all servers, which lies under US jurisdiction/influence, so moving to an alternative may be warranted?

I'd be interested to hear any opinions on this, as well as if anyone was able to compare the two tools.
