Recently, I saw so many posts about this and I started to think about degoogling (degoogleing?) my life.
I've started with fdroid and found some nice apps in there and I'm curious to know some alternatives I may or may not know
Youtube: Currently, I use ReVanced and even though is just the default app with something in it, I want an alternative with background listening, import my subscriptions w/ notifications and if possible with sponsorblock
Mail: Using a combo or Gmail + proton. I started to use proton recently and I want to move everything there when I have time. Suggestions here?
Cloud storage: Self hosted/proton? Alternatives
Gallery app: Stock
Video player: Stock
Music player: Stock
2FA app: I have Authy and I tried to install aegis. I also have Ente but I've never used both
Mail app: Using K9 and the app is awesome compared to google or Samsung Mail
Password Manager: Bitwarden
Weather app: Currently, using Breezy weather
If possible, apps with a nice looking UI, modern with/without Material You
I'm using a Samsung S23 and I would like to know how bad it is to change ROM with something better and if it's really worth Pixel + GrapheneOS. Thanks
Edit: I forgot the most important one with probably no alternatives (?) Thanks to @JustMarkov@lemmy.ml (idk how to mention)
For email, you can get Migadu and use your domain (in fact, I think that's their only option unless I'm mistaken ie no foo(at)migadu.com). I'm biased cause I use them but I think their prices are fair and they have a student discount, if that applies to you. It works with K9 nicely.
For gallery, I use Aves Libre.
Also idk if I missed it but if you're looking for a calendar the Fossify calendar is good.
I was thinking about using my domain with cloudflare, postman on an ubuntu based server I own so I could make mails like: myname@, spam@, service@ but I don't know if Migadu allows it and if I have to do something with cloudflare
I'll check it later at home for the gallery. Calendar yes, I'm interested In switching and I thought to see for the most used first
