Yup, i am currently looking for quality European Made kitchenware specifically bc of the movement instead of Just biying cheap ones from Ikea. Therefore reducing my co2-footprint by a bit. Also in Terms of US-dependance i am looking for a New Mail Provider - as my Gmail-box and a bit complicated Setup was giving my "storage full" warnings, i am looking for better and privacy conscious Base services. Before the movement i would Just have reduced the storage size by deleting old Mails, saying (giving the excuse) that in todays Internet World you have to die at least one dead - giving your Data to either Apple or Google - now i am looking for ways to reduce my previous Dependance in Google-Services.

    I had a lot of Gmail addresses for every possible job and reason. I cutted them down to two email accounts. I tried proton.me, tutamail.com - proton being official and tuta casual, subscription email. I liked tuta but didn't like proton. I replaced proton with mailbox.org paid plan and I have been very pleased with it. So 2 German provider, Tuta and mailbox. I ll keep my main Gmail rolling in my burner phone for 2 months so transition period is more merciful.

    Sounds like a good clear todo you have there, I wish you luck! Don't hesitate to ask in a post for recommendations if you feel like it.

    For emails I can personally recommend Tuta, but we've got quite a few posts about that and people have different preferences :)

    Ty! Yeah, i registered with tuta and started to move Things there. Until i came to the "how do i Back Up old E-Mails from selected folders when the storage gets full again" question - i tried their Export solution and it can only Export all Mails, Not folders specific ones, and dumps them with No reference or information to their sorted folders onto your Disk. So i will try with another Provider, who supports IMAP so i can use regular Thunderbird/betterbird as Mail client, where i can do exactly that.
