I'm full on de-googling. I have set up ProtonMail as my main, a selfhosted NextCloud to store my calendar, drive and photos, I'm even erasing all my maps reviews by hand. The only thing I'm still unsure about: how should I replace my chromecast? Besides the amazon, apple or roku devices, which do you use? Which device do you recommend?

This is a project I found a while back and have been meaning to try to make use of a Pi I have sitting around https://github.com/lanceseidman/PiCAST haven't actually used it yet but if you're looking to degoogle not moving over to some other mega corp is probably worth considering as well.

Maybe not what you're looking for but using Kodi on Pi and laptops as Mediecenter.

Haven't used it, but Plasma Bigscreen has been recommended before: https://plasma-bigscreen.org/

Funny that google is one of the patrons :) Looks like a great solution though, thanks!

I saw this a few years ago but I am not sure if it will act as a replacement for chromecast
