I post all my daily thoughts and pictures and lots of personal details of my day to day activities TO MY OWN PRIVATE MASTODON SERVER. This is hosted on a VPS. I give accounts to my close friends and it gives me no impulse to use traditional social media for other than professional purposes. If friends want to know what is the latest on my life, they can just log in and read my activity feed.
My default search is duckduckgo and I'll use Google if I'm not getting good results.
I haven't really found a good alternative to Gmail though.

- qrbLPHiKpiux 9y agoSeconded. I use the POP service on one laptop only.
- dredmorbius 9y agoProtonmail is adequate. The client (Android) is quite limited, and neither POPD nor IMAPD access are supported. I'm pretty close to giving up on email entirely based on its deep and pervasive privacy flaws, and for the most part don't rely on it. (I'm lucky to have that option.) Unfortunately, I don't see an open alternative on the horizon either.
