Hi, I have everything on Google these days. I’d quite like to get away from it to some extent at least. I can’t see that’s going to be easy, particularly on Android. But ChromeOS, Google drive and email seems like a good place to start, any suggestions or good guides?

Thanks!

    If you can, host your own file server to replace google drive. If not i guess mega.nz is ok.

    ChromeOS can easily be replaced by linux. https://linuxmint.com/

    There isn’t really a great alternative for gmail, so unless you will host your own email server i guess you can use tutanota.

    I recommend you check out MentalOutlaw on YouTube.

    Mozilla Firefox is my main browser, I definitely like it more than Chrome. It supports adblocking, doesn’t hog RAM, and doesn’t track your activity.

    But it goes beyond that. Firefox lets you open tabs and specific domains in “containers” which cookies and login info don’t cross. By default, Facebook is separated into its own thing.
