  • ungoogled-chromium

    Google Chromium, sans integration with Google

  • Your first step should be replacing your searching and email. I use startpage for searching and [fastmail](fastmail.com) and [tutanota](tutanota.com) for email. You can also use [proton mail](protonmail.com) and [duckduckgo](duckduckgo.com) or [startpage](startpage.com). For browsers you can use firefox, [librewolf](librewolf.net), [brave](brave), or a privacy focused chrome based browser like degoogled chrome or [vivaldi](vivaldi.com) (I use Librewolf and Vivaldi.) You gonna need to do some speaking to settings and getting addons but you can find a list of those in the privacy subreddit.

  • Simple-Music-Player

    A clean music player with a customizable widget, stylish interface and no ads.

  • For maps I use Organic Maps, you can also use open maps. For YouTube you can use YouTube vanced or [newpipe](newpipe.net). For notes you can use [joplin](joplinapp.org). For 2FA use Aegis. Bitwarden for [passwords](bitwarden.com). [Mullvad](mullvad) for VPN. Open board for a keyboard. You can also check out SimpleMobileTools as they have FOSS alternatives to stock google apps. For SMS/MSG I use signal for both. You can also use Telegram. There's more advanced options but they are not as easy to use as signel/telegram. Nextcloud for cloud storage.
