I really wish we’d stop referring to non-Big Tech solutions as “alternatives” because labeling something as such automatically places them as second-rate, substandard compared to the big guys. Language and how we talk about things can change the narrative.

But yes, that’s a great resource. But if you also wanna know which tools are people are switching from, their motivations / tipping points, and where, how, etc., then check out the visualizations at switchdigest.eu

Insights include which tools are in, what’s out, what motivates tech choices, where it’s happening, and how to stay ahead.

Mullvad on my desktop. They don't have a mobile app available, unfortunately.

I use a de-Googled phone with /e/OS installed. Works like a dream!

You can also go to https://plexus.techlore.tech/ to check app compatibilities. I discovered new apps via https://switchdigest.eu/.

 

I believe the site isn't indexed on Google or Bing so it's pretty much invisible, but I hope it catches on anyways. I think it should be possible without those guys.
