I use tuta mail and tuta calendar for mail and calendar, Vivaldi as browser on laptop, and Firefox on android. Bitwarden as password manager and bitwarden auth as 2fa. Use obsidian for notes and appstore is aurora store and droidify, I use archlinux. And for “cloud” storage, actually a backup I use This USB drive not cloud Buf works for me. Still kinda dependent on proprietary messaging platforms, but I have 1 friend on signal. Also I am trying to replace YouTube with fmhy.net not exactly YouTube alternative, but has so many resources for free to study, educate myself, or just watch something out of amusement.
I was referring to poor SMS security, not WhatsApp. As in, SMS is a temporary measure to stay in contact, which you then use to pivot people towards Signal.
The issue with WhatsApp is it’s closed source and originates from a company with a history of scandals, nefariousness, and support of MAGA.

Sversion of messengersIt’s safe to assume that 100% of SMS are stored and monitored by different governments, due to how the system works

It’s not confirmed, could be bullshit, but I came across this and thought with our recent interaction you might find it interesting.
Thanks, I’ll have a look!
