For *non-technical people* trying to de-Google, what are some good Google product alternatives that you don't have to self-host?
I'll start with Ente, which is a pretty good replacement for Google Photos, and Fastmail, which is a good replacement for Gmail and Calendar.
OS: GrapheneOS, /e/ os, Volla OS, Ubuntu Touch
Email: Tuta, ProtonMail
App Store: F-Droid
Messaging: XMPP, Matrix, Session
Youtube: TubeLab, Thorium
Cloud: Nextcloud
@publiclewdness hmm a lot of this is a bit much for non-technical people.
Can buy devices with alternative operating systems already installed.
As for the rest is setting up an account with Tuta any different than one with Gmail ?
F-droid is a download away and doesn't need an account.
The only real work with XMPP and the like is choosing a server, same for Nextcloud.
At the end of the day the user who puts in no effort gets nothing out of it.
