I was a user and a fan. Spent years recommending Signal to others. People are pretty used to software turning to shit but it still sucks to have to reach out to tell people they should look for alternatives to the software I'd once recommended to them.
I swear if VLC ever turns evil I'm giving up on recommending software forever (in the meantime, check out VLC if you haven't already!).

I don’t blame you, I think it did start with a good promise initially, but I believe just like anything centralized that turns big, it will become evil.

The player? Or is that a new messaging app? For messaging I usually use Matrix/simpleX/Session.
The media player. It's probably the oldest application I use that's gotten nothing but better with time.
