I’m trying to move away from #google.
What are your easy to use(!) favorites alternatives?
Currently I’m trying to do it like this:
#chrome -> #firefox (easy one)
Maps -> #openStreatMap (I’m trying this, maps was the most used, service for me … switch will be hard)
#gmail -> ??? (I‘m completely open, I don’t want to set up my own hosting, I’m eying mailbox.org)
fotos -> iCloud (I know it’s Apple, but obviously the poison I take for now)
#drive -> ???
Any suggestions for anything?
Thx!
Juan Luis
in reply to Marcel_Gehlen (he/him) • • •@Marcel_Gehlen@tchncs.de Maps is hard. There are OSM-based apps like @organicmaps but you won't be able to see your favourite restaurant reviews or advanced public transport navigation. It's a struggle.
About Gmail, I asked a similar question a while back, and @mailbox emerged as the winner social.juanlu.space/@astrojuan… The web client is crap but you always have @thunderbird. I wish there was something closer to Hey dot com UX.
Drive - Pick a @nextcloud provider, for example @murena or github.com/nextcloud/providers…
GitHub - nextcloud/providers: community-maintained list of Nextcloud providers

in reply to Organic Maps • • •@organicmaps @thunderbird @nextcloud @murena I'm a happy Organic Maps user :) but in September 2023 is not a full replacement. Just wanted to set clear expectations.
Are there issues I can subscribe to on GitHub about these two topics?
