I recently dumped my Pixel for an iPhone. Feels dirty, but it’s fine.

I’ve also been following the story of how Google Drive has lost a bunch of customer files and is just closing bug reports and support tickets without offering help, and I’m worried that Google is not an acceptable backup solution because they don’t seem to give a shit about customers… and why would they? They own the world. Fuck mere humans.

Anyhoo, I’m trying to figure out where to move my backups (100GB), my docs (I’d love something where I can do sheets and docs in browsers and mobile apps), and probably my email too, because why not… but I suppose I could do email through proton or skiff or anyhing, but everyone offers it.

I’m currently looking at Zoho as the possible best option. It looks like I could do all three for like $6/mo which seems reasonable. Does anyone use it?

How are the docs and sheets? Is searching email robust? Mobile apps? Does Zoho hate customers as much as Google? Will they eventually?

    iPhones are great, but not totally private, data collection still happens. If you really want a private experience, you could have kept your Pixel, and installed GrapheneOS on it, which would be the definitive option for privacy in a mobile setting.

    For Docs, Spreadsheets etc, the only privacy friendly alternative I have found would be Nextcloud, which you have to host yourself, since as of now there aren’t any others as good. You could use libreoffice if you didn’t mind being local.

    Never heard of Zoho, i’d probably stick with Proton Mail, Tutanota, or Skiff.
