@Tutanota All of them and then some.
@Tutanota I just use Android, but all the other services I use are already on my server 😎
I'm waiting for the @MOTOROLA x @GrapheneOS collab ❤️
@Tutanota no meta
grapheneos on my pixel 10 pro. i have a dormant gmail account that i created years ago when you could get away with no name, phone number, etc. i think about getting rid of it but can't help but think it still be useful.
cachyos as my daily driver. planning on creating a dual boot with void linux. i have a "just in case" windows 11 partition on my laptop. though all i really do with it these days is boot in to it every 3/4 months to make sure its still functional and update it
@Tutanota android is the last issue.
@Tutanota I only have an Google and MS Account, but not signed in to any of my devices directly.
MS is still needed to play Minecraft and Forza Horizon. My Google Account is for purchased apps from google play (I'm installing these with the Aurora Store). ;)
@Tutanota Oh, yes! De-big tech!
@Tutanota Already deleted Facebook and Instagram. Currently working my way into replacing Gmail with Tuta, and fully transition to @GrapheneOS
@Tutanota In my personal life the only difficult one is the first. Mainly for the creative content in YT and because transitioning to another mail address seems complicate for many reasons.
The other two were easy and done years ago. (Made easier by the fact that I always refused to join Whattsapp, and never really liked FB, X, any Microsoft products etc. I recognise my privilege!)
In my professional life I have no choice but to use MS and other big commercial products and that is infuriating.
@Tutanota Don't have to DeMeta as I've never Meta'd
@Tutanota Almost 100% free of Meta and Microsoft. The most difficult is Google, since I'm an Android user. Unfortunately, we don't yet have a 100% ready and reliable alternative solution, but I believe in the potential of open-source technologies for this someday. The path of decentralization is beautiful and promising.
@Tutanota 🎶... It's DeLovely🎶
@Tutanota De all. Wenn du diese Post von einem Apple oder Android liest, du weisst: es ist schlechter, als es aussieht.
@Tutanota de google is hard as well
No one can replace google maps when its urgent
@Tutanota De Meta is hard
problem is to convince your loved ones to move out of whatsapp - then they convince other 20
which is next to impossible
