It is time for a different social media. One that respects our right to privacy. Finally, governments around the world are taking action! https://www.wired.com/story/facebook-ftc-antitrust-case-smoking-gun/
You can help by choosing secure and privacy-friendly services. Here are our recommendations: https://tutanota.com/blog/posts/how-to-leave-google-gmail/ 💪😀
@vesperto A hidden service is already on our roadmap, but first we want to add lots of client improvements. Stay tuned!
@Tutanota
I want to try this but how do I transfer everything from my Gmail and yahoo, without having to do it individually? That's the main thing putting me off trying Tutanota 🤔
@anniemo71 Just start using it as your second account and transfer step by step. No need to do it all in one go. ;)
@Tutanota
#imap support is the way to go as I can move #gmail to tutanota and job done.
@anniemo71
@anniemo71 @Tutanota This is what I did from Gmail - once you start signing up new things with your tutanota account you'll slowly start using it more than your Gmail account. It's a long process though unless you start switching email addresses in all your services accounts. I've been using both for about a year now, but whereas it was 90% gmail, 10% tutanota, it's now 80% tutanota, 20% gmail.
@Acaii That's a very good approach! :)
@anniemo71
@Acaii @anniemo71 @Tutanota The best solution I found (I read some time ago) is using an own domain. Once I did the transition, I have migrated from different mail providers without any problem in that sense.
@marcelcosta @Tutanota @anniemo71 Oh yeah that's a good idea! hmm something to consider.
@Acaii @Tutanota
Thanks for the feedback folks.
I did try to sign up a few hours ago for the free version, just to try it. Sadly, when I got to the tick boxes. One stating that I don't have another free account. The page just freezes.(on my android)
Tried 6 times so then gave up. I will try to remember to give it another go tomorrow though.
@anniemo71 @Tutanota welcome to the land of less Google advertising. It's a bit calmer. 😉
@Tutanota why are you advertising Vimeo instead of PeerTube or LBRY?
@Tutanota some pretty basic recommendations imo.. Tresorit is proprietary - people would be better off using Seafile (hosted in Germany on Mars, Luckycloud, YourSecureCloud) or Nextcloud (on TheGoodCloud (NL), or Hosting.de (Germany))
OsmAnd is like the suckiest version of OSM - Maps.Me is way better for android - and their premium version is fairly priced at $6 a year.
@Tutanota Also wondering what your thoughts on Qwant are?
@Acaii Very nice suggestions, qwant as well!
@Tutanota interesting how you advocate a different social media yet maintain a marginal presence on the #fediverse.
Your blog also advocates #tor, but why don't you provide a hidden service?
