I just installed GraphenOS as my daily driver yesterday, and so far it’s been smooth. I decided to go all in on FOSS applications and avoid Google Play Services entirely.
So anyone have any recommendations for common replacements? So far I’ve got:
- Florisboard for my keyboard
- Signal for messaging
- NewPipe for Youtube
- Organic Maps for navigation
- Bitwarden for password management
- Aegis for 2FA
and that’s about it. I’ve been trying to find something for Spotify, other than ditching it entirely, but I’ve had no luck. My partner pays for a duo account, but if there’s an alternative I’m ears.
If you have a desktop computer, you could run a Jellyfin mediaserver.
Torrent media and run your own personal Netflix.
Look into apps like radarr, sonarr, prowlarr etc, there are lots of guides online.
Soulseekqt for pirating music and host your own Spotify with navidrome. (Or use jellyfin has a music player as well).
If you want to selfhost a full jellyfin webserver on the wider internet and not just your local network, you can look into cloudflared Argo Tunnels, which will allow you to selfhost even if you have a dynamic IP.
This is a little more advanced than just local hosting, but feels pretty epic when your friends and family all cancel Netflix and start using your Jellyfin server instead.
Grats on going degoogled, btw. It’s a tough bandaid to rip off, but so worth it.
