Are there any non-US/China based social media companies?

Are there any social media platforms that are not USA or China owned?
Are they any good?

Specifically, I'm looking for a replacement for Facebook and Instagram for sharing information and photos with family and friend groups.

The Fediverse (which Lemmy is part of) has frendica and pixelfed as Facebook and Instagram replacements.

I'm not sure where Frendica is based out of, but Dan Supernault of Pixelfed is Canadian.

I share pixelfed with family and friends. Works very well.
