I am open to any suggestions or to add an services I missed! Suggestions are especially welcome on services with less than three current options

    Is Cryptpad really the best docs alternative? I’m looking for something to replace docs, it’s one of the last things I need to degoogle.

      I tried it and it’s pretty good. I don’t know about storage limits or anything like that, but it gets the job done.

    Aren’t Brave and Vivaldi supposed to have blue bullet instead of yellow?

    If you’re degoogling to reduce google’s influence in the world, not just in your life, you should avoid chromium based browsers entirely. Google’s chromium web rendering engine dominates most web traffic, and is squeezing out all alternatives. This leaves defining web standards in the hands of google pretty much exclusively. Vivaldi and Brave should be avoided for this reason. Brave founder Brendan Eich donates to funds seeking to undo gay marriage protections in the US and other reactionary causes, if that matters to you (it should).

    I would add

    • Proton Drive
    • Proton Pass

    To the Google Drive and Google Passwords areas.

    Proton Drive also has the ability to view pictures it has backed up, but because everything is encrypted, they can’t really sort them into buckets like you can with Google Photos.

      I’ve been using Feeder for RSS and am fairly happy.

      I wish there was a way to group articles by topic. At the moment I have to scroll through pages of articles about the Pope’s death.

    For those of you who want to dump music streaming entirely and go back to audio files Symphony is an open source music player on Android.

    This really could use some clarification on what category these belong to. Most of these projects are open source projects where you can either self-host the tool, or choose from one of many free or paid instances online. If someone lacks the technical skill, hardware, or time to self-host, they should shop around. Often there is an “official” instance by the developers, but that’s not always the best option. Sometimes a paid option with more resources is going to be more stable and performant.

    Other suggestions are individual companies services, and a couple of these are just applications you install on your device. It would be helpful to readers to clarify.

    Some of those suggestions are not exactly degoogling, in the strictest sense. If you’re just going to keep using Google services but through a different frontend, you are not freeing yourself from Google.

    That’s not to say piped and invidious and Aurora and so on aren’t worth using if you absolutely cannot wean yourself away from Google entirely. It’s a step in the right direction, certainly.

    Still, it might be nice to label those suggestions differently in a list like this, for clarity.

      Just started using this. It’s free (for a small amount of storage) and super private. Like so private that if you forget your password, your data is lost forever.
