I do! Been using some of them.
They also suggest firefox as a browser and I have been using that one for years, great add-ons, trackers and privacy control.
For search engines, I’ve been a DuckDuckGo user for a couple of years, now also trying out Qwant from that list. Works really well for my case for just searching things, even some more technical ones. DuckDuckGo also works great.
I’ve been trying out HERE WeGo for maps and it’s good, shows locations when searching, shows the streets and even info on places by pulling data from e.g. TripAdvisor.
ProtonMail is pretty known and I’d say it’s a solid service.
I’m looking to go deeper into these alternatives and hey if more people use them, there’s incentive for the devs to further improve/support these services.
thanks, now I know
pCloud. Huge scam. They find any reasons to close your “lifetime” account.
I haven’t yet but I am in the process of moving away from anything google and, frankly, American (not just in digital services, but that’s another story). Did not know this resource and am really glad to have found it. Thanks!
Too often I hear that Europe just doesn’t have the services available. Turns out, we do.
This will also helps encouraging others to make their lives a little more European again.
Have been using Ecosia instead of Google for a while now.
is there sources to back this?
Looking at search, half of the alternatives use American search engines and are depending on Americans crawlers. Qwant used Bing. Ecosia is just a google wrapper. As for the other three, I’ve never heard of them but I strongly doubt that they have a running crawler and their own indexing.
