Hello everyone! This is my list of FOSS software I use ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Android FOSS alternatives to proprietary apps

Google Board -> FlorisBoard
Google Play -> Aurora Store^[1]^
Termius -> ConnectBot^[2]^
Discord -> Element
Xiaomi Fit -> Gadget Bridge^[3]^
Google Gmail -> K-9 Mail
YouTube -> LibreTube
Google Authenticator -> Mauth
Google News -> Nextcloud News^[4]^
Google Drive -> Nextcloud^[4]^
Google Keep -> Nextcloud Notes^[4]^
Spotify -> SubTune^[4]^
YouTube Music -> ViMusic
Google Chrome -> Mull

^1^- You need a Google account.
^2^ - The UX is not as good as Termius.
^3^ - The UI looks like garbage, but does it's job.
^4^ - You need to selfhost a server.

Android FOSS alternatives to FOSS apps

Jellyfin -> Findroid
F-Droid -> Droid-ify

Desktop FOSS

Windows -> Fedora 38 Workstation
Firefox -> LibreWolf (telemetry free, hardened firefox)

Other software

Android -> Lineage OS
Linux server -> Debian (without GUI)
Smart home -> Home Assistant
SMS -> Signal
DNS -> Adguard Home (selfhosted)

Other services

Google -> Qwant (it's so good!)

Google maps the best alt is OSM (open street map) but personally I think it's not quite there yet direction wise.

Shazam is easy tho, Mousai is the shit

it's a desktop program, while most of the solution OP has posted are Android exclusive.
