NewPipe for YouTube, ProtonVPN to help hide my activity from trackers, Firefox with Privacy Badger and uBlock, Tidal as a replacement for YT Music, I’ve found Moon FM to work for me as a replacement for Google Podcasts.

I’ll be hosting a NAS with Immich to replace Google Photos and have other file storage some time this year.

I use an android, so there’s only so much I can do (and I don’t want to fiddle with GrapheneOS or iPhones). But I find things more enjoyable without constant ads everywhere and without new “features” that only serve to try to keep all your attention on an app all the time.
