I have a long list I made a while ago of things I need to do to divorce myself from Google. It’s super daunting and I’ve been procrastinating. Last night Google requested a video of my face when logging in. It didn’t require it but it’s only a matter of time before that or something else awful gets added as a condition of using their service. I’m now ready to start my email transition elsewhere. It’s probably one of the bigger steps so it may give me momentum to do the other steps also.
I have seen a million guides and gmail replacement options, but I’m curious what the latest opinions on email services are. I currently lean toward proton and I’m willing to pay, but again, there are so many options and pro/cons to different companies and services it is overwhelming. Any info I can get will be helpful in choosing an email service. Thanks everyone.
Update: I’ve taken the very first step and started forwarding my Gmail to a proton email account. One thing I just thought of is that my android phone currently uses contacts synced from my Google account automatically. Does anyone know a way to replicate that with proton?
You’ve been very helpful, and I clearly struggled to realize that you were just coming along to say a useless belief you have without a shred of good intention in your body.
The post was only made to get help. The only help you provide is wasting my time with something you don’t even care to back up you virtue signaling toad.
Also, no one is saying poogle. That’s just moronic
Welcome to social media, feel free to post, but don’t delude yourself that everything that happens after that is about you, or for your benefit.
poogle is definitely for you.
