I had enough of big tech and their actions, so created this guide to make switching as easy as possible (lemmy.ml)

I shared a version of this guide earlier this year, but felt a website was needed to unpack the different options fully. So after an unreasonable number of hours, I put together the necessary data and website.

I hope this is digestible enough for the average person to help those looking to take that first step, or for people who are equally passionate and want to get their friends or family involved.

Details:

Every time I post these guides, there is always feedback on things that can improve, or I got wrong. Please do share, as it is the best way for these to evolve!

I have started on that with a small intro section for most sections (still adding). An example is email https://purchasewithpurpose.eu/category/email, but I understand that an even more in-depth guide is warranted.

    Thanks for making these! The mix of thorough structured data and qualitative disclaimers is so useful.

    I’ve been curious about Infomaniak because I haven’t seen much about it until recently. Is “Open Source” the main reason Tuta and Proton are on the infographic instead?

    I tried to limit it to 3-4 per section, and the email category was already so full - no specific reason. That said, I've since learned that Tuta's free tier is a bit limited, so I might actually switch to Infomaniak Mail instead.

    I use Infomaniak for my email and cloud storage.

    They’re great, but lately their Linux app has had problems.

    When I reported it, they were really efficient and friendly.

    Also their data centers are heating buildings where I live.

    I would always recommand them as they offer really good prices too.
