I’m slowly ditching Google lately. Always on the lookout for better options, so lemme know what you’re using! 👌

    My bad.

    Gmail -> Proton Mail
    Chrome -> Fennec (Firefox fork)
    Google Photos -> Immich (Self Hosted)
    Google Calendar -> TickTick
    Google Drive -> Filen
    YouTube -> YouTube Revanced
    WhatsApp -> Nekogram (Telegram fork)

        Even if it’s not the best, it’s still better than Meta. Signal is better for privacy but is missing some features (not as powerful group chats, folders only on Android and only client side, no pinned messages, no polls - though if one answer is enough you can use reactions). Matrix is pretty good for that kind of thing.

        US company but it’s not Meta, which is already something. I would not recommend it though, when Matrix exists

      I suggest Ente Photos instead of Immich, if self-hosting is not something for you. It’s also more feature complete, as Immich is still actively being built and bugs are expected.

          Issues like what? It’s an open source project that you can self-host, with end to end encryption. I don’t see how it compares to sending your photos in plain view to Google.
