Looking to get away from Big Tech?

@Vivaldi

Of these, I already use

@ecosia @protonprivacy @jottacloud

and of course Vivaldi

[alexskunz@mas.to]

@Vivaldi isn’t @StartpageSearch just a sort of proxy/front end for Google and Bing results?

@Vivaldi

@StartpageSearch is a pain in the ass. Sponsored results consume most of the content above the page fold. First thing I change when I install Vivaldi ,since it seems to be your search engine of choice

Just want to add Qwant and Ecosia are currently developing a independent search index to break from Google/Bing

European Alternatives.
Why is Metager search not mentioned
You also conveniently forget
Disroot.org which offers a lot of services and
Posteo for Email.

I think antiX Linux also deserves a mention, much of the development of my favorite Debian derivative is done in Greece.

@Vivaldi
Is there a good alternative to #kagi?

(No, #Kägi isn't 😂.)

[guillotine_jones@beige.party]

@Vivaldi
Boosted and bookmarked this list of European alternatives for online functions.

@Vivaldi @StartpageSearch @Qwant @ecosia @protonprivacy @jottacloud and @GrapheneOS to get rid of a surveillance Android system and get back to Freedom with a Free Android, a deGoogled Android 😉
