I've cancelled my subscription yesterday, conveniently it was about to renew at the end of the week, so I have a few days to migrate from Proton, here's what I'm thinking of, but I'd love to hear what other people are switching to

I use Aegis for 2FA, I haven't really had any issues with it

Libreoffice is ok enough for docs/sheets but it's not really a cloud based service. I would say make your own setup for storage but with prices nowadays that probably isn't happening lol

Mailbox has Drive/Office and Meet included. VPN is undoubtedly Mullvad. Yes their CEO is a fascist but none of them are perfect. Mullvad is as close as it gets.

If you ever wanted to Cake Wallet is pretty much the gold standard for mobile crypto wallets.

IVPN seems like a decent option

Is it just me or is the room spinning faster?

[–] Karl@jlai.lu 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Thanks for that. I've moved to mailbox to, i've bought a domain and i use addy.io for aliases. I've also choosen KeepassXC to replace proton pass and i use Syncthing to keep the data of keepassxc up to date between my PC and my phone. And i think i will self host for the drive soon (waiting for black weeks to try to but a beelink s12 pro cheaper). For A2F : Aegis. Everything runs well on my Graphene OS phone. Do we really need vpn while we can use good DNS settings ?

@inlandempire Does anyone have opinions on addy.io as a replacement for simplelogin.io?

Does anyone have a suggestion to replace the email aliases feature of proton? I see mailbox.org has 25 aliases with their premium version, but I have a lot more than 25 aliases and don’t want to go back to just using my email again. I don’t use my domain for most email needs, as my domain is a bit inappropriate lol

What are all of you people using VPNs for?

IVPN or AirVPN (depending on whether or not you need port-forwarding) is my VPN recommendation.

Walt.is seems to be a promising wallet alternative even if you use a degoogled device.
