PewDiePie: I'm DONE with Google
-
Articles too much time too, so I made you this
- Google bad, tracking sucks
- Android -> graphene
- Keep -> joplin
- Docs -> nextcloud
- Gmail -> proton
- GMaps -> car GPS
- Tailscale
- Selfhosted on SteamDeck
- Gmail -> proton
I recommend Tuta over Proton. They're much more focused on their core product (not making their own crypto wallet or VPN or storage service or password manager), plus Tuta's leadership has never endorsed US Republicans, unlike Proton's

How can he be done with Google and still posting YouTube videos?
-
He was never right wing in the first place
He did some edgy stuff in the past, but he is not Tucker Carlson or anything.
-
Since when was he about that right wing shit ?
wrote last edited by [email protected]He paid some dudes on Fiver to hold up "Hitler Did Nothing Wrong" signs.
EDIT: Sorry I looked it up out of boredom and it was actually "death to all jews" signs.

“I’m done with capitalism” he writes on a phone paid for with
MONEY 
Hey, it could be stolen.
-
What do the other two do better?
wrote last edited by [email protected]Lineage OS is a fairly generic ROM based on AOSP so it supports the most devices
Calyx OS is a privacy focused ROM without all the Graphene OS BS. The Graphene OS team and community are quite toxic and have a "my way or the highway" mentality. They don't support MicroG and focus more on security than privacy and freedom.

No, stop, come back...
- Google, 2025
-
GMaps -> car GPS
What? No. OSM or literally anything else than a fucking car. Stars and sextant.
Organic maps rocks
-
Investigate CoMaps... There's some drama around Organic Maps due to bad leadership
It is up to you
Personally I don't see anything wrong
-
Because traffic data can't be obtained without some tracking...
I think it would be cool to do some sort of p2p network
-
I think he actually used something else than proton, he didn’t mention though. Except that he uses his own domain name.
I drive believe he has started hosting his own email though
That is very hard to do
I salute anyone who tries but big tech as sort of captured the market.
-
Sooooo... he's NOT leaving YouTube?
Where would he go?
-

Who recently was the voice of reason in the room during his interview with Raphael Cruz of all things....what even is this timeline anymore??
-
Doesnt calyxos also work on fairphone
"work" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here when talking about a Fairphone. Worst phone I ever owned with quite some margin.

Three R’s to deGoogling: Reduce, replace, remove.
I would say start by changing your browser and search engine (lots of options out there today), and then set up your own domain for email hosting so you can try different providers.
There isn’t another YouTube with all that content out there, so that one is tough, but you don’t have to 100% de google, 50% is still good. 15% is still good.
set up your own domain for email hosting
cannot recommend this enough!
- register your domain through something like porkbun
- get an account with someone like mxroute.com (i am a fan, but not an affiliate or anything)
- enjoy pain-free email for the rest of your life

You got the sauce?
-
Waiting for the episode where he finds out who owns YouTube 🫠
Is there any service that can scale to millions of users?
-
How can he be done with Google and still posting YouTube videos?
Because YouTube has a monopoly for the most part
-
I understand why he doesn't leave youtube but why not reposts on alternatives for people who want to limit the use of youtube
If he did the alternative would be instantly crushed
-
I mean, I don't know of him now... he's way older and, seems significantly less immature than he was in the past, it's possible a good portion of his fanbase has also grown to be more tolerable.
Lemmy has less than 1 million users
The fan base would crush us
