Hello everyone!
Recently, I saw so many posts about this and I started to think about degoogling (degoogleing?) my life.
I’ve started with fdroid and found some nice apps in there and I’m curious to know some alternatives I may or may not know
- Youtube: Currently, I use ReVanced and even though is just the default app with something in it, I want an alternative with background listening, import my subscriptions w/ notifications and if possible with sponsorblock
- Mail: Using a combo or Gmail + proton. I started to use proton recently and I want to move everything there when I have time. Suggestions here?
- Cloud storage: Self hosted/proton? Alternatives
- Gallery app: Stock
- Video player: Stock
- Music player: Stock
- 2FA app: I have Authy and I tried to install aegis. I also have Ente but I’ve never used both
- Mail app: Using K9 and the app is awesome compared to google or Samsung Mail
- Password Manager: Bitwarden
- Weather app: Currently, using Breezy weather
If possible, apps with a nice looking UI, modern with/without Material You
I’m using a Samsung S23 and I would like to know how bad it is to change ROM with something better and if it’s really worth Pixel + GrapheneOS. Thanks
I have a domain + a Raspberry and if it works, I could try to host on it🤔
I’ve tried a lot of clients and none was good for me, Samsung Mail was okay-ish but it didn’t notify me half of the times. Tried K9 and it’s amazing, even if it sync every 15 mins it sends a notification for every mail.
I use Firefox but I’d like a password manager outside of it, foss of course and I’m using Bitwarden now
There is also a way to get realtime notifications from k9 if you prefer.
If you have a huge number of photos, LMK, I’m working on setting up my server now and there are a few tricks to share with getting your photos from Google.
