  1. Die Techniker Krankenkasse blockiert also die Installation ihrer App unter GrapheneOS.

    "Meine" TK. :rolling_eyes:

    Meint ihr, die anderen Krankenkasse ziehen in den kommenden Monaten nach und blockieren ebenfalls de-googled Smartphone-Betriebssysteme?

    Und wenn nicht: lohnt es sich, deswegen zu einer anderen Krankenkasse zu wechseln?

  2. Im letzten Monat zogen mit der Hilfe meines Bruders die Kontakte, Kalender, Google Drive und Dropbox von meiner Frau und mir in die eigene Nextcloud um. Nicht nur sind die Kontakte jetzt aufgeräumt und besser gepflegt, nein, ich freue mich auch jedes Mal, wenn ich die Kalender-App öffne.

    Das Beste: Ich erzählte im Livestream davon und eine Freundin nahm meinen Bericht zum Anlass, es uns nachzutun. Das fand ich stark!

  3. mk, #TutaMail looks like my next hosted email solution.

    I am planning to pick one domain(hahaha
    😭) to keep my primary email on for the next probably 20 years, if my old accounts on #google are anything to go by. By controlling the domain and mail records that the email is sent to, i can configure it to send my email to any service that will accept custom mail records like that. This means i can point it to the #protonmail or tutamail paid tiers, or set up #postfix or #roundecube or something next to #nextcloud locally.

    grumblegrumbl read that book i got from @[email protected] about email hosting ​:neocat_book:​ 📓 years of exchange management take a toll.

  7. Being interested in a more beneficial relationship with my pocket square now that I can trust the device a little more

    #GrapheneOS #degoogleyourlife

  8. Am 1.3. ist #diday und wir machen mit!

    Unser Johnny nutzt gerne F-Droid. Das funktioniert so ähnlich wie der Google Play Store, allerdings wird dort ausschließlich Freie Software angeboten. Johnny hat hier schon viele coole Apps gefunden, die ihm den Alltag erleichtern.

  9. #Gmail forcing me to disable smart features to keep them from feeding everything I get into their big slop machine has helped me #Unsubscribe for more newsletters and promotional emails in the last week than I have in the last 2 years 😅

    #NoAI #degoogleyourlife

  10. So I went to F-Droid and attempted to download the public transport plugin for Kvaesitso.

    And I got a Google Play Protect popup message warning "harmful app detected".

    It gave no further details about why this app is harmful.

    Does anyone know if this app is harmful? If so how?

    Or is this Google being a monopolist and blocking competing open source apps?

  11. I got an email from UK fact checking organisation Full Fact yesterday saying that Google had withdrawn funding from them, a million quid a year. That's a drop in the ocean to Google. Does Google want to be the only source of truth? #fullfact #degoogleyourlife

  12. 🔍 Time to change your #SearchEngine

    ⚠️ Despite the big variety of open-source safe alternatives, #Google remains the most used search engine in the world, with 90% of online searches. HOW? Google pays independent browsers, like Firefox and Safari, to be Google-by-default. It is a monopolistic practice for which they were sued.

  13. 💻 Digital Revolutionary Infrastructures (Very Encrypted) aka DRI(VE): Web browsers

    ❓Browsers are computer programs that give you access to websites on the World Wide Web.

    ⚠️ Google collects tons of data by tracking what you do with their web browser: Chrome.

    Your data sustains their power! -> used for surveillance, military, manipulation and control.

  14. Still trusting “the cloud”? ⛅ Think again.

    Most services don’t serve you — they study you.
    📦 Your files = their leverage
    📊 Your patterns = their profit

    You don’t need to be a techie to fight back:
    ✅ Use open-source apps
    ✅ Store data locally
    ✅ Block trackers & fingerprinting

    🔐 Privacy isn’t about hiding.
    It’s about owning your digital space.

  16. 🚨 Still using Chrome? It’s not just about preference — it’s about control.

    Chrome isn’t just obsolete; it’s a surveillance tool disguised as a browser. There are superior alternatives that respect your privacy without sacrificing functionality.

    🧭 Most won’t switch — not because there aren’t better tools, but because they’ve never questioned what they’ve been handed.

    Start small. Switch your browser. Regain your agency.

  17. 🖥️ Running your own Nextcloud server isn’t “geeky.” It’s sane.

    When you self-host your data, you eliminate the middlemen — no third-party analytics, no forced cloud sync, no data mining masked as “features.”

    🔐 It’s not just storage — it’s sovereignty.

    Because privacy should live in your hands, not theirs.

  20. 📂 Google Drive isn’t storage — it’s surveillance in disguise.

    Every upload is scanned, logged & profiled.
    No end-to-end encryption. No opt-out.

    🕵️ Data is shared with authorities on request — no warrant needed in some regions.

    > “Free cloud” is bait.
    Total visibility is the price.

    Your files can feed AI, trigger flags, or become evidence.

  22. 🗂️ “Cloud” isn’t freedom — it’s outsourced ownership.

    ☁️ When your files live on surveillance servers,
    they're not yours. They’re just licensed back to you.

    🔍 Metadata is mined.
    📊 Access is tracked.
    🔗 “Sharing” means exposure.

    > I don’t upload to be efficient.
    I self-host to remain sovereign.

    🛠️ My storage is mine.
    🗄️ My vault, my keys.
    ⛓️ No sync chains. No third-party eyes.

    ✨ Privacy isn’t a feature — it’s a foundation.

  23. 🔐 GrapheneOS isn’t just de-Googled — it’s de-risked.

    📱 Built on AOSP, hardened with custom memory safety, exec protections, and zero default Google spyware.

    Why it matters?
    → No telemetry.
    → No app hijack.
    → No location leaks.
    → Sandboxed Play Services (if you choose to install it).

    🧠 You control every layer — from bootloader to baseband.

    Privacy isn’t a feature. It’s the foundation.

  25. 🔐 GrapheneOS isn't just an Android fork—it's a privacy fortress.

    Built in Canada (2014) by Daniel Micay, it's a hardened, de-Googled OS with no telemetry, no backdoors, and full user control.

    Not about hiding. It's about owning your OS.

    GrapheneOS isn’t about rebellion.
    It’s about the right to vanish, rebuild, and be unreachable — by default.

    📱 Real privacy starts beneath the interface.

  32. @korporal @GrapheneOS
    Leider kann man #degoogleyourlife mit #grapheneos nur mit Hardware von google... Wie gerne würde ich grapheneos auf meinem #Fairphone5 installieren.

  33. Dieser Artikel hat mich einmal mehr daran erinnert, dass ich auf @GrapheneOS wechseln wollte - die Zeit hab ich mir heute endlich genommen.
    Und ich hätte das schon viel früher tun sollen.
    Über den Webinstaller ging es leicht von der Hand, nachdem ich die Anleitung ein zweites Mal gelesen, und unter Ubuntu einen stressigen Prozess beendet habe.
    Die Apps die ich aus dem Google Appstore benötige, laufen sandboxed ohne Murren, und die feingliedrige Kontrolle über alle Aspekte des Gerätes geben ein gutes Gefühl, ohne Überforderung.
