Secure and privacy respecting recommendations for technology.
Secure and privacy respecting recommendations for technology.
Established in 2021, Privacy Guides is the most popular & trustworthy non-profit resource to find privacy tools and learn about protecting your digital life.
A switch away from US big-tech is great, but the switch should be made to something fundamentally better and more secure/privacy preserving IMO.
Not every single tool you might need will have a recommendation on this website, but some will and they're well researched and vetted alternatives that often perform better than the service you're replacing.
You're viewing a single thread.
Given the intent of this community though it should also be noted not all recommendations are European. Brave for example is American.
Fair point and good call out!
I always assume that we have the sense to double check any recommends.
On a related note, I believe that due to the nature of FOSS and it being “borderless” that those alternatives should also be relevant.
I think the purpose of this community is to give money to EU companies though. Not necessarily to get away from paying for services entirely like the FOSS community seeks.
I think there's a space for FOSS software, but that's not here.
Yep, I get that - I'm not a fan of Brave in particular due to the crypto crap and the owner's homophobia and right-wing beliefs but thats not why I mentioned it, I just wanted people to be aware that PrivacyGuides, whilst a fantastic resource, is not a source for only European software/services.
