I’ve been looking into the Fediverse and it seems like something I want to get more accustomed to. But iw as wondering if there was an email one based on it? I’ve got like Gmail and outlooks. But I also have a rarely used protonmail. So, I was wondering, is Proton good enough. Or is there a Fediverse alternative?
I understand all of this now. I just made a dumb mistake when looking at the Fediverse umbrella. Leaving it in hopes someone else may need it.
I can recommend getting serious with Proton and getting rid of Gmail. I’ve started two years ago and now I have the Gmail account only for some historical stuff, I use it like once a month.
To be honest. I don’t really use Gmail. Only for YouTube, and my phone, as its stick android. And yes, I am aware that’s a bit shit. But, I can’t be arsed fucking about woth rooting and flashing and all that. Gmail is for like things I don’t care about. And I’ve got a main Hotmail from absolutely years ago. It must be at least 14 years old at this point which has near enough everything on it. And I really can’t be arsed moving everything over. But whenever I make a new account I’m gonna use proton. And if there’s things that I do care about. I’ll likely move those big ones over.
I love protonmail, I’ve had it for several years now. Tutanota is another good alternative as well and it’s cheaper compared to proton.
May I ask what you use as a Google Drive/Photos alternative? I’ve already ditched Gmail but I’m having a hard time finding private alternatives for these two services
If you’re willing to self-host, check out Immich. It’s pretty much the go to google photos replacement.
For Google Drive I use Proton Drive, Photos I still haven’t migrated, but I’m not a photo person, it’s not a priority.
