The world can no longer trust American tech. If that sounds dramatic, take a step back and consider the facts. The United States is a nation in the thrall of authoritarianism, owned and operated almost completely by a far-right doomsday cult intent on betraying every alliance, every contract, every promise

    I’m also trying to avoid as much American tech as possible.

    • Vivaldi/qwant instead of Firefox/Google
    • Proton instead of gmail
    • Waiting for WERO impatiently until then virtual card from wise instead of PayPal
    • Void Linux instead of windows/macOS
    • Surfshark for VPN

    Can’t change everything though. I have a company phone. I could get an extra private phone, but I’d still need to use the company phone for company related stuff. Same is true for the company laptop, but I do have my own computer.

    It’s not perfect, but the important thing to me is trying as best as I can.

          Well, Proton became a full suit.

          I need a replacement for ProtonPass and ProtonCalendar.

          I believe KeePassXC with Plugin support might help. But all I need is a pretty good Calendar app. There is literally none I believe. But I am unsure. nvm, Tuta has a calendar. I think I will switch xD
