For my family, the biggest hurdles by far is a mail/calendar combo that works as well and supports sharing etc, and how the hell to migrate out of Gmail when so many of my emails have several labels which won’t translate cleanly into IMAP folders. I wonder how you tackled those, or how you compromised.
I’ve found proton’s mail/calendar to be pretty good so far. Sharing works great if everyone has proton. If they don’t they can share an invite and you can add it to your calendar but you won’t get their updates unfortunately.
Thanks! I switched over to private email provided by my domain host. It was a cheap and easy alternative. I haven’t done this for my family, though, since I feel that’s their call whether to stay plugged in. As far as labels go, I don’t really use them, so there wasn’t much need for compromise.
I’ve replaced everything Google can do with self-hosted services. No more YouTube, Docs, Nest, TV, Photos, etc.
This is quite an accomplishment. Kudos.
