I created an infographic of privacy-forward alternatives to Google products…and would love your feedback.

Is it easy to use? Enough white space? Intuitive? Sharable? Is there anything I’m missing?

The infographic image in this post is NOT clickable. The link above will give you a downloadable PDF with working hyperlinks.

Re: the legend, “easy set-up/use” means either that this is a big part of the alternative product’s branding, or I’ve used it myself and found it easy.

    As someone who wants to drop Proton VPN and has stopped using their mail in favor of mailbox.org, I think we should still mention them, just with an asterisk. People deserve to make their own choice about if they wish to support him or not. At least it’s non-profit now.

    I really wanna stop using the VPN and go to Mullvad (since they’ve proved they have no logs), but they don’t offer port forwarding anymore, and the only other option is AirVPN, which had a server seizure in 2015 that they didn’t want to disclose until like 2023… (gag order?)

    I don’t torrent often, but I do occasionally…

      How is mailbox? I just recently got proton set up with my custom domain and I kind of like it to be honest and their app is nice too.

      If you dont torrent often you probably arent really needing port forwarding. I use mullvad and i torrent things all the time with zero issues.
