minus-squaremertn@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up11·1 year agoProton for email and cloud storage. Graphenos on a pixel 7a for phone. Phone spps from aurora and fdroid.
minus-squareSproux@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up10·1 year agoProtonmail is a free service with an optional subscription for extra features you almost certainly won’t need
minus-squaregovernorkeagan@lemdro.idlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 year agoThis. I used it for multiple months on the free plan and it worked perfectly.
minus-squarenoughtnaut@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up8arrow-down1·1 year agoSeconded. Without a single word on replacements for email, calendar, phone, etc… this post is pretty much useless to everyone else than the OP.
minus-squaremertn@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 year agoSee above. Plus I use Thunderbird for calendar.
minus-squarenoughtnaut@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoGreat, thanks! How does Thunderbird work for you wrt to sharing calendars with others (eg. family) and syncing with eg. an Outlook calendar?

minus-squarelseif@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agonot sure if this helps, but i believe using a separate android profile/user is the same as sandboxing, although less convenient
