Hello,

I took the degoogle boat in 2024 when I saw shit like gulf of murika.

So far I have no regrets, and if I have to do it again, I’ll do it again.

My actual setup : Phone : Pixel with GrapheneOS.

Mail : Proton Drive : Proton VPN : Proton Password Vault : Proton

Calendars/Contacts : radicale (selfhosted) Photo : Immich (selfhosted) Home : Home Assistant (selfhosted)

Notes : Standard notes YouTube : Newpipe/Grayjay/SmartTube Maps : CoMaps Authenticator : Aegis Wallet : Catima & (Mybank app)

Now with the last declarations from CEO of Proton, I’m seriously thinking to change some of my setup.

Did someone have recommandations for mail provider, with a private domain name? I want to be more resilient in case my mail provider turn on the dark side.

Actually I’m thinking about mailo services. 1,5€/months for 20Go with drive. If someone have some experience with them and coule advise me.

Also I need a solution for my aliases. I was thinking of Addy.io or duck.

VPN, I need a solution for Android with split tunneling, and also for linux. Maybe Amnezia, but there website don’t inspire me confidence.

And also I need a new password vault, easy to sync between my devices. Lots of articles talk about BitWarden and VaultWarden, but from US, and I don’t wan’t to feed the beast even if it’s a geniune editor focused on privacy.

    I moved from Tuta because encryption makes it real slow, but the biggest reason was that searching in mails is very painful, ineffective, in addition to slow. So I decided to ditch the whole end-to-end encryption thing for mail considering all I’ve read about that recently.

    Since I’ve moved, I could re-browse all my emails and realized 80 % of them are very un-sensitive data like order confirmations etc Since I selfhost paperless, which is awesome, I really don’t need to keep a record of more important stuff in my mails anymore

      Ah that makes sense, we’ve not used it enough for search to be relevant, but it will be eventually. I’m a big user of folders so my inbox is often sorted enough to find things quickly without search but after a couple of years search becomes essential.

      With with trust in Proton steadily declining it’s difficult to know who to trust with Mail and VPN and Passwords.

      Same here re: Tuta. I started with a tuta account however search is simply so terrible as to be pointless in practice. I switched to mailbox, which also allows me to use my domain name.

      I use Surfshark as VPN, happy enough with it.

      I previously self-hosted vaultwarden but have started trying out KeePassXC. I don’t really need instant always online password management so it’s fine so far being local to my machine.
