I'm slowly ditching Google lately. Always on the lookout for better options, so lemme know what you're using! 👌

              Gmail -> Posteo
Chrome -> LibreWolf
Photos -> rsync (I don’t trust Discord-only communites)
Drive -> rsync / VCSs
WhatsApp -> XMPP
Keep -> What?
Docs -> Text editor / LibreOffice
Google Translate -> Yandex Translate (FOSS options do not generally support Eastern languages)

Keep is for notes, optionally with cross-device sync.

CalDAV supports notes/todos. I never used it tho. I usually just Note to Self on XMPP.
