I totally agree with your assessment of free Google Services. What is your assessment of Apple?
in reply to Tuta

we should find alternative of F-Droid for open source apps from now. There direction is not looking promising. I don't know what they are thinking but things not looking good now.

I appreciate the decency of listing one of their main competitors services as a good alternative. It’s nice to see companies not hoodwinking each other at every turn.

I haven’t used Google as my main service since elementary school…
in reply to Tuta

ah yes, but I have seen an enormous rise in spam since I joined Mastodon that I have not seen in the days of the Meta platforms… 😕

What private alternative to google forms would you recommend?

Ideally something that does not require respondents to log in. Thank you!

Every client I support who's open to ditching Google apps has one indispensable requirement of any replacement of Google apps: They must be able to view their Google, Microsoft, and Google-replacement accounts in the same OS-native mail, contacts, and calendar apps. This serves two purposes:

  1. They need to see their personal and work communications and schedules in the same window. This is essential, for example, to avoid double-booking themselves.
  2. They need to be able to gradually transition between their old personal accounts and their new, as they update contact information with one person, business, nonprofit, and government agency at a time.

For #E2EE services, this requires a local SMTP, IMAP, CalDAV, and CardDAV bridge (or, for mobile devices lacking support for this, a self-hosted bridge server and a VPN to which).

What options provide this capability?

Missing: in the Android category please also consider alternatives which are not derivatives of AOSP (of the open source parts or android), i.e. mobile GNU/Linux distros such as:
- SailfishOS
- PostmarketOS
- UbuntuTouch
etc.

SFOS is definitely daily driveable: I am posting from a phone running it.
