This list is... fine, but unfortunately missing a number of good FOSS alternatives. Still, it's good info for most of these categories.

Having said that, it's eternally frustrating that infographics like these so often don't recommend actual alternatives for YouTube specifically. It's always just "keep using YouTube, but with these apps instead" which, that's "fine", but not exactly degoogling. It's not even really a step towards degoogling, because you're still tied to watching content from Google, so when that frontend stops functioning, you're highly tempted to go back to using Google's YouTube apps.

Recommending Brave or any other Chromium browser as an alternative for Chrome is a big no no for me.

Also, don't use Organic Maps, use CoMaps

stop. with. the. brave. bullshit.

Couple of additions:

• translate -> deepL (AI based with a free tier (no account required)), or for websites FireFox has a builtin offline translation tool
• drive -> Filen (Zero knowledge, E2EE)
• search -> Kagi (paid), or one of the listed

Also check the Fossify apps.

How can you forget DeepL at such a list? It’s Germany-based and actually provides better translations than Google Translate

The main reason why people use google maps is the fact it has reviews included.

Other navigation apps don't offer this convenient feature.

Didn't think I'd see a degoogling list without DeepL, for translations. That's definitely a choice.

I personally recommend kagi instead of Google search. I've tried most of the ones in this list and kagi gives the best results, and consistently too.

Great recommendations, for YouTube I recommend taking a look at peertube and also, while this is not really a YouTube alternative, take a look at fmhy.net they have many links for tv shows, anime, movies, books, educational videos, documentaries, etc... Great tool :3

How is it that all these lists are always kinda bad? They always miss some obvious good alternatives or have ones that shouldn't be there. I've seen so many posted and not a single one has been without issues. And these are not subjective things I'm referencing, I'd have no issue with that, they just always seem to be made by someone who has very shallow and uninformed knowledge about the alternatives. My main issue here is Kagi missing from search, and Proton and Brave being part of any of the recommendations.

Brave browser is chromium based, don't know about their translator though. Deepl is by far the better option.

Most browsers are chromium, like Vivaldi (the one I use and love).

I can highly recommend Proton password manager and 2fa app, which are not listed here. When you pay for their service, you have mail, drive, vpn, password manager, 2fa and it works great. Extra encryption, extra privacy.

Tuta even recommends some Proton services, Tuta is truly based!

They missed to mention Jitsi Meet, posteo.de, Nextcloud, Piped, and XMPP (for an example Snikket). But other than that, really good list! 😃

And yes, you can use others servers for Nextcloud, Piped, and XMPP/Snikket. No need for self-hosting your own.

I'll be very happy when a google wallet alternative is made (don't think it's really possible right now!?).

Isn't Aurora just a frontend to google play store? Just use F-droid

Mozilla translate is offline on your device: about:translations#src=detect

Instead of google drive you could use cryptpad

I like droidify more then the fdroid client

CalyxOS is no more

Why is Filen not listed as an alternative for Google Drive? Filen is also a german company.

Jitsi is a great open source alternative to Google Meet and Zoom etc

What browser are y'all using on Android?

I started using Tuta recently. I created some aliases. Someone can email be at one of my aliases but if I reply to them then the other person sees my alias as well as my original email address, which kinda defeats the purpose. Anybody know why that is?
