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
deleted by creator
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.
Everything you need and more if you have a bit of time and an old laptop or two.

Some of these you can use through public hosted servers too.
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.
another option if you want a hybrid is host a jellyfin instance with your music youbcan even install a lrclib plugin and get pretty good lyrics
Oh? Self hosted music streaming? Thats neat as fucc

It has TOTP built-in for paid accounts.

Threema (not Therma)
Thanks. It’s updated now
Should’ve gone for a name like 3ema instead in my opinion.
3nema
Cryptpad for a Drive/Online Office Suite replacement, it’s fantastic
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.
I like Firefox Sync. What are my options when moving to Librewolf?
You can continue using it.

Most KeePass clients have built-in OTP support too. That being said I still prefer Aegis.
Aren’t Brave and Vivaldi supposed to have blue bullet instead of yellow?

I initially had problems with Piped, but I’ve been using PipePipe for ages and have never had an issue.
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.
Might also add Collabora, it’s libreoffice, but allows online collaboration and has the nicest integration into nextcloud, imo.
Nextcloud paired with Collabora is awesome! (Might be just be called “Nextcloud Office” depending on how it’s packaged up, but it’s the same thing). With Google Docs, you have drive, but the “files” it syncs for your Google Docs documents are just links to open Google Docs in a web browser, you need to manually export them if you want real files. With Nextcloud/Collabora, you literally have .odt or .docx files synced to your computer, but you can open them online with Collabora and have a full “google docs” or better collaborative online interface. Make a change, and the .odt file on your hard drive changes. You can work or collaborate in Word, Libreoffice, or in the web browser with Collabora on the same files (synchronously, only with the latter, but asynchronously with any of them - with the obvious caveat that slight formatting differences will always happen with different applications so keep your collaborative documents simple). It’s brilliant, and the interface is more feature-full than google docs too.
It is paid and/or open source
It is free and open source. https://github.com/CollaboraOnline/online
Download via F-Droid needs additional repository: https://www.collaboraoffice.com/downloads/fdroid/repo/?fingerprint=573258C84E149B5F4D9299E7434B2B69A8410372921D4AE586BA91EC767892CC
“NOTE: main server is offline, you’ll see the message that you’ll add a mirror, that’s expected. To make it skip the main server, open repo details and toggle off first
collaboraonline.comentry.” (https://forum.f-droid.org/t/known-repositories/721)I’ll have to check this out
hiya, when i try and download it from windows, it is paid. When I try and use it online I have to request a demo. What am I doing wrong
That’s weird. At least for Linux and Android it was free, last time I checked.
Oh maybe it’s different? But when I go to windows I takes me to the Microsoft store and it’s 13£
Collabora makes a bunch of products, and tries to monetize them in various ways. The desktop apps are basically just a Libreoffice derivative and not really worth your time IMO, but either find a provider with both Nextcloud + Collabora Online installed, or self host them, and it’s a fully free and open source alternative to the whole Google Drive and Google Docs platform.
Wouldn’t really recommend threema and would include SimpleX
Why not?
Based around a company
To be fair, Simplex is also a for-profit company. However, it’s at least decentralized and more open, I’d take it over Threema any day.
What’s wrong with threema?
I’m concerned about centralization the most.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but how is signal any less centralised?
Signal isn’t, and that’s one of mine (and a lot of other people’s) main gripes with it.
Where did you found that SimpleX was for profit?
