@linguistgoneforeign@mastodon.social Yay! Condragulations on getting so far! I'm still early in my journey, but so far:
Gmail (phasing out): Mailfence
Google Calendar: Mailfence / The Good Cloud (NextCloud)
Google/Apple Maps: CoMaps
Twitter: Mastodon
Facebook, Instagram: Pixelfed, Loops
WhatsApp: Signal (tbc: SimpleX)
iOS: tbc (hopefully a de-Googled OS on Fairphone)
macOS: tbc (hopefully Mint or similar)
[Unavoidable on work device: Microsoft/Windows and Google suite]

@clickhere@mastodon.ie That already sounds like a good plan! I used Mailfence for a bit but it didn't convince me. CoMaps I installed yesterday, as per recommendation of a few Mastodonians.

@clickhere@mastodon.ie Next #challenge for you is to include the web links to all those - and make another post (can't get enough of this as a message and link) Links make it that bit easier and likely for change by clicking a easy link and having a look at the suggested #alternatives... thanks (if you'd like to put link next time!) peace
