Hello everyone! This is my list of FOSS software I use 😃
Android FOSS alternatives to proprietary apps
Google Board -> FlorisBoard
Google Play -> Aurora Store[1]
Termius -> ConnectBot[2]
Discord -> Element
Xiaomi Fit -> Gadget Bridge[3]
Google Gmail -> K-9 Mail
YouTube -> LibreTube
Google Authenticator -> Mauth
Google News -> Nextcloud News[4]
Google Drive -> Nextcloud[4]
Google Keep -> Nextcloud Notes[4]
Spotify -> SubTune[4]
YouTube Music -> ViMusic
Google Chrome -> Mull
1- You need a Google account.
2 - The UX is not as good as Termius.
3 - The UI looks like garbage, but does it’s job.
4 - You need to selfhost a server.
Android FOSS alternatives to FOSS apps
Jellyfin -> Findroid
F-Droid -> Droid-ify
Desktop FOSS
Windows -> Fedora 38 Workstation
Firefox -> LibreWolf (telemetry free, hardened firefox)
Other software
Android -> Lineage OS
Linux server -> Debian (without GUI)
Smart home -> Home Assistant
SMS -> Signal
DNS -> Adguard Home (selfhosted)
Other services
Google -> Qwant (it’s so good!)
YouTube (desktop) -> Piped
Suggest me:
- Google Maps
- Shazam
Just wanted to mention ViMusic doesn’t seem to be getting updated anytime soon. The status is mentioned in this push request.
Consider trying out InnerTune instead which has several more features and active development :)
Does InnerTune have Android Auto capability?
Yup!
I would recommend Navidrome + a subsonic player, but it is alot more effort.
