If this list were named "alternatives to Google products" then I'd say it is a good list. But privacy friendly? How so exactly?
There are several closed-source proprietary services on the list, with better (in terms of nearly everything: user base, maturity, feature completeness, ...) open-source alternatives available.
To name just a few per category:
- Analytics: Matomo (formerly Piwik), Fathom Analytics, OpenWebAnalytics.
- Password managers: passwordstore.org, Keepass
- Cloud storage: NextCloud, TresorIt
- TheGrassyKnoll 8y agoEncrypted cloud backup: https://spideroak.com https://spideroak.com
- commoner 8y agoSpiderOak's desktop client is closed-source. "The SpiderOak desktop backup client is the product of years of a typical startup scramble, and the codebase itself is tightly interwoven with a lot of other moving parts and sensitive information that we cannot release." https://spideroak.support/hc/en-us/articles/115002665263 https://spideroak.support/hc/en-us/articles/115002665263
