    I have to add a recommendation for https://supernotes.app/ (N.B. Not the Canadian e-notebook maker with almost the same name). I have been using supernotes for a while now and it’s something I actually enjoy using; a feeling that has been absent for a lot of tech products for a long time.

    They’re an independent business based in the UK and the owners are very active and responsive to supports. Works seamlessly for me across browsers(vivaldi), windows, linux (Mint) and android (GrapheneOS) and they have Mac, iOS, and a VR app. My only complaint is that I believe they host on AWS

    I’ve got no affiliation with them, I’m a customer and I really like what they do and how they do it (except AWS) and since they tend not to appear in these lists often I don’t think many people have heard of them.




  • All the proposed services/technologies would benefit the wider consumer base and the user but switching is too big an ask for many people. We need to encourage people into using “as well as” the global defaults. That will build the network effects that lower the cost of fully switching

    An easier and bigger immediate impact would come from people replacing Chrome and google search with respectful alternatives, and/or replacing gmail or outlook with private services like proton or tuta.
    Starve the surveillance machines a little bit.
