It took a few months preparation but I deleted all my google accounts today, and it feels good.

    Would you be able to let us know the services you used, the replacements, and how did the migration process work?

      Proton for email and cloud storage. Graphenos on a pixel 7a for phone. Phone spps from aurora and fdroid. Kagi.com paid search engine too.

      Seconded.

      Without a single word on replacements for email, calendar, phone, etc… this post is pretty much useless to everyone else than the OP.

            not sure if this helps, but i believe using a separate android profile/user is the same as sandboxing, although less convenient

          Great, thanks!

          How does Thunderbird work for you wrt to sharing calendars with others (eg. family) and syncing with eg. an Outlook calendar?

            I only use Thunderbird calendar for myself so I don’t know. Proton includes a calendar offering in their package but I have not tried it yet.
