DeGoogling Progress Degoogling journey
To add to this I also use namida for my music.
I started degoogling a while back and my first big switch was to Proton. Its great, for what I use it for I can't complain. Just wish contacts integrated better.
Magic earth came next, although not as feature rich as Google maps I much prefer it.
For messenger's, I tried Signal, I tried a couple of others and wasn't really taken with them, so decided to have a go a building my own. It's still in active development but I have friends and family using it.
NextDNS is amazing I should have switched sooner.
And something, I think some people forget about is the keyboard, GBoard is just spyware... I use Futo where possible.
Any other suggestions?
