I would love to hear about macOS and iPhone nostriches who have reduced their digital custody to Apple and Google. What are you using for the various services such as email, file photo video storage, geolocation, online video content, office suite and so on?

CryptPad hosted on my nostr:npub126ntw5mnermmj0znhjhgdk8lh2af72sm8qfzq48umdlnhaj9kuns3le9ll server is a pretty cool office suite.

Love Cryptpad. I run it in a docker container on my local server. It works great. 💪

iPhone -> Pixel w/ GrapheneOS

Macbook -> Purism Librem 14 w/ VanillaOS

iCloud keychain -> BitWarden

Google search -> DuckDuckGo + Mojeek

Gmail -> Proton Mail + SimpleLogin +Tutanota

Google Drive -> Proton Drive

iCalendar -> Proton Calendar

Apple notes/google docs -> Standard Notes

ICloud photos -> Ente

Apple Podcasts -> Podverse (v4v)

Google Maps (address lookup) -> DuckDuckGo

Google Maps (turn by turn) -> Google Maps (sandboxed)

YouTube -> NewPipe

Google Play Store -> Aurora + Fdroid

Chrome (desktop) -> LibreWolf + Ungoogled Chromium

VSCode -> VSCodium

VPN = Mullvad (desktop), ProtonVPN (mobile)

Router = protectli w/ OPNSense

I use a majority of these too. Great list. I'll add a few more:

Office: LibreOffice

Comms/File Sharing: Keet + Signal + SimpleX

Podcasts: Fountain + AntennaPod

Search: Brave Search + Startpage

In addition to F-Droid and Aurora Store I recently began exploring Obtainium

I have a little experience with Tresorit and recently started exploring Nextcloud for file sharing and data storage. I'm sure others can speak more to the pros and cons of these options.

I recently migrated to https://www.onlyoffice.com/ and was really impressed.

This has been on my radar but have yet to explore it. Do you like it better than LibreOffice?
