I feel like #degoogle seems to embody a greater movement to leave bigtech. Here are the crazy things I’ve done over the last month or so.
- Installed Arch on my laptop about a month ago
- re-engaged my Mastodon and Bluesky while deleting Twitter and unfriending everyone on Facebook
- Installed GrapheneOS on my Pixel
- Moved email to custom domain and Tuta from Gmail
- Moved to NextCloud in place of Google Drive
- Moved photos from Google Photos to Ente Photos
- Moved my PKM and Notes to Logseq
- Moved from Chome and Google Search to Firefox, Tor and DuckDuckGo
- Just deleted Reddit and started a Lemmy account.
It’s been a ride and I’m open to other suggestions and guides.
what did you use for your 2fa codes? Most of mine are in google authenticator and I would likely need to migrate them first.
I moved my extensive 2FA to Bitwarden Authenticator - I think I had to scan the migration QR codes from Google authenticator and recover the keys manually but it worked fine
Aegis is another option. I use vaultwarden for most OTP.
+1 on Aegis, love it, it’s FOSS and on F-droid. Can make auto backups/exports (encrypted/not), can register codes from a screenshot of a QR code (love that feature when I’m on my phone), it’s a simple and clean design overall.
Most MFA codes I can store in freeotp+. Import/export function means I can back it up, too.
I keep mine in 2FAS and Vaultwarden.
Same Here: 2FAS. If you are into coding, you can also write your own: there are lots of libraries to do the cryptography for you.
I have found something yet, but I’ve heard ENTE Authenticator is pretty good.
