I had enough of big tech and their actions, so created this guide to make switching as easy as possible (lemmy.ml)

I shared a version of this guide earlier this year, but felt a website was needed to unpack the different options fully. So after an unreasonable number of hours, I put together the necessary data and website.

I hope this is digestible enough for the average person to help those looking to take that first step, or for people who are equally passionate and want to get their friends or family involved.

Details:

Site - https://purchasewithpurpose.io/
Code - https://codeberg.org/purchase-with-purpose/pwp-website
Community - https://lemmy.world/c/PurchaseWithPurpose

Every time I post these guides, there is always feedback on things that can improve, or I got wrong. Please do share, as it is the best way for these to evolve!

Anyone have an alternative for Google Keep? I just want shared notes and checklists across all my devices

If you need markdown and other formatting you can use notion.so, but I can't expect that company will be good in the future even though they're good now. They've already added AI. I use it for a note-taking because I can create hyperlinks between notes.

Joplin maybe?

On the list, will get there maybe in 2-3 weeks time! But if you want something sooner, maybe post on the community https://lemmy.world/c/PurchaseWithPurpose
