a blog about tildes and other things

### no more google

August 14, 2018 — ~ben

not sure if this is appropriately tagged, but i didn't feel like making a new one.

i figured i should probably get some notes down about moving off google.

to start, i'll get a list of the things i was able to easily replace:

- gmail => @tilde.team mail
- google drive => syncthing (with a persistent node running on my personal vps)

i'm still using:

- gplay music/youtube
- google maps (open streetmap isn't good enough to replace it)
- google photos - but this is going to be replaced long-term with syncthing
