@jahanson @Tutanota I would advise against using the same service / product to host both your passwords and 2FA. Because if the master password is compromised, both your collection of passwords and your 2FA codes would be at risk. Separate it into a different account if you must use Bitwarden or, alternatively, use a FOSS authenticator app like Aegis.
And I'm specifically mentioning FOSS authenticator apps. Do not, ever, use a proprietary authenticator app. If you can, stick to open-source stuff when it comes to password managers and authenticators. I made a post a little while back about why you should do that: https://techhub.social/@alextecplayz/112723799806401183
https://techhub.social/@Techmeme/112723724698560093 Consider this a sign. Stop fucking using Twilio Authy, or any proprietary 2FA app, period. It's not even about the data breaches (Authy was breached previously in August 2022) (https://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/authy-hackers-breach-two-factor-authentication-2fa-codes/), but also that Authy sends telemetry that could be potentially identifiable. Authy sends data about which websites you're logging into, they create a user ID when you create an account (which requires e-mail AND phone number verification), and then they tie any accounts you add to the app to this ID. This is NOT anonymous! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JHIAIzOPz3I) Other apps such as Google and Microsoft Authenticator aren't any better either! Microsoft Authenticator pulls the same shit as Authy, but they send IDs and telemetry even if you toggle analytics off. For example, if you scan a QR code for a Google account, Microsoft will know that the user with the specific device ID has a Google account with 2FA.

@Tutanota It might be possible, it's certainly not easy, and if you need a map like this, it's definitively not easy.
Don't sell people this is easy. It's not! They will get disappointed, frustrated, and defending that change will become harder.
PeerTube could fit on YouTube alternatives too. Also: the free plan of Vimeo lets user to upload only 1 GB of content ..
@wbpeckham @Linux @Tutanota I send video both to archive.org and (for those small enough) directly to the mastodon server I use.
In my particular case, I am not interested in trying to monetize video as all of it is producrd for non economc reasons and out of general opposition to ad supportee sites
@Tutanota Even the blog is in German, this list here is also as a English speaking person easy understandable. The list has a higher focus on open source and privacy then the info graphic in this post.
Perhaps add PeerTube to the YouTube alternatives section? 🙂
It's part of the Fediverse so you can follow and interact with PeerTube accounts from Mastodon etc. More info at https://fedi.tips/peertube-video-hosting-on-the-fediverse/
@Tutanota my life isn't just google free, but is completely gafam free. Literally 0 services from big tech.
Life is a bit harder yes. But you can't replace the feeling that you can sleep safer at night with any "convenience" offered by big tech.
Apart from the safety feeling, there is the human interaction at the support department. When using services from small businesses you actually get to speak with real people when you have an issue with the service.
I use many of these but email has never been a concern of mine. What else I use for non-google on my Android phone :
F-Stop Gallery (paid) for photo organization
OpenCamera (free) for taking photos
Textra (paid) for SMS / MMS
Simple Mobile Tools for dialer/contacts/notes, but the brand was sold and so you need to get old versions now (I think the F-Droid ones are still fine).
Not the best list I've ever seen.
No Brave.
DuckDuckGo is regurgitated big tech censored results full of dis and misinformation. Yandex and Mojeek are superior choices.
Authy is not a great choice.
Leaving Rumble, Odysee, Brighteon and others out of the video streaming mix leaves users locked into the highly censored, 1984ish government controlled information paradigm. A huge disservice to your users.
And of course Proton makes excellent products that fit several of those categories.
@Tutanota Invidious and NewPipe ARENT Youtube alternatives, just frontends for it.
Use @odyseeteam instead, which is a decentralised platform
Almost none of these are easy.
