There might be some changes that could improve it further:
Remove BraveMaybe add Signal; It’s easier than Element, but it’s also centralized- Stop suggesting Linux Mint specifically
- Recommend Hosted Nextcloud
Add GrapheneOS- Maybe add Delta chat
Maybe remove BlueskyRemove Stremio and add Jellfyin (even though it’s selfhosted and not a direct equivalent)Add ente because Immich is selfhostedAdd auroraAdd SearxNG- Add SimpleX
- Add lichess
- Add pCloud
Any other suggestions?

🔨 = Self-Hosted only (requires running a server)
I use Nextcloud as a similar way as Google Drive or Google Photos. But it’s self-hosted and not for the mass.
I would recommend a mail service for drive. Most are quite stingy with storage. Mailbox.org or Infomaniak.
It’s very affordable to rent a hosted nextcloud instance on a European server. I love nextcloud. It’s my data storage, webmailer, calendar and contacts sync, collaborative office, shared finance manager and so much more!
Would you mind sharing a provider for this? I use Ionos currently and I’m quite unhappy with the features they provide, and I but i can’t find an alternative provider with the same amount of storage packaged. Thanks!
