@kev I recently started transitioning away from Google services, then I just found your posts about De-Googling. It's nice to know that there are other people doing this as well! Also it is reassuring to see we independently chose some of the same replacements (NextCloud & DuckDuckGo). I went with ProtonMail for email, though: http://johan.vandegriff.net/wordpress/2017/10/27/why-i-switched-to-protonmail/
@johanv Proton was actually one of the services I considered. I was actually on the beta program for then. However, I don't send encrypted emails, and the lack of versatility that comes with Proton because of the encryption was a deal breaker for me. Plus, lack of storage.
