I have moved away from google and I strongly recommend all of you to do the same. It is mostly a psychological barrier. The features we miss can be added to Free Software collectively, but loss of privacy can never be compensated.
1. I use duckduckgo.com for search ixquick.com is another option 2. I never signed up for google plus (or twitter). I deleted Facebook account and WhatsApp. I use diaspora, xmpp and kontalk I'm part of the team that runs poddery.com and diasp.in (diaspora+xmpp) Use conversations + kontalk for messaging. I hope to be able to make both of them interoperable soon. Let me know if you want to help. 3. I moved to autistici.org for email. This was the hardest. You have options of using many community run email services. disroot.org, openmailbox.org (also provide many other services like xmpp and owncloud) or riseup.net 4. I use cloud.libreinfra.org for address book sync (its run by a group of friends sharing a vps). 5. I flashedd my yu yuphoria phone and installed cyanogen mod without google apps. No google play, I use only fdroid. 6. I use k9 mail + open keychain for gpg On 2015, ഒക്ടോബർ 10 9:49:48 AM IST, surya veera <hindustani.in...@gmail.com> wrote: >Any other email service provider?
