I am SO tired.
Ok so, having a @protonprivacy plan running until April 2027 gives me the time to test and evaluate other options.
I'm giving @thunderbird desktop app a go, and I've seen they have an iOS app in the making (by the end of the year).
I actually secretly hope that, by then, I'll have freed myself from Apple services, but who knows. I'm not a fan of Google–Android tbh. Alternatives?
Sometimes I think I'd rather live in a cave.

@simona I am often tempted to get one of these (doesn’t really help with your question): https://www.thelightphone.com/
@scott yesss I've seen them, the design is so neat! However I find the 3 a bit pricey, and the 2 is not available for international shipping (I'm based in France). Should I go with a $50 dumbphone? 😅 but then banking app, sport app, electronic invoicing... we're trapped.
@simona yes totally — by design, you can’t do any of the normal smart phone things on the light phone. :)
Meanwhile android and iOS have almost all of the market so they are hard to avoid.
I have seen people on fedi mention @GrapheneOS and @elementary OS? I get the sense there are some alternative platforms emerging but have not looked into it much. (I am on iOS for now, just refusing to upgrade to liquid glass 😅)
