Today was huge. I’ve separated myself enough from Google with Proton applications/services combined with other more privacy focused software and hardware to be able to completely delete my Google account.
It feels great to FINALLY be free of them. I’ve had an account there for decades.
It looks like ente.io for photo management will probably be listed on the privacy guides website soon: https://discuss.privacyguides.net/t/ente-photo-management/11763
For email/calendar/drive Proton is the easy choice. I know photo upload is on their radar too but like everything with proton it will probably be a while before that’s ready to roll out.
