There should be more on https://alternativeto.net/ when you search “DeepL” for alternatives

Since many are listed here but I am sure there are more

Will for sure do the last part to support Proton, and developer time in those Linux phone solutions they have covered. Just trying to figure out the new hardware too so we are not locked out fully from new tech

Great points non so no worries! Aren’t they partnering with a new OEM though? But I guess that would probably still have the same problem

Thinking to put together a website of what people have suggested in various posts to develop this initiative more overtime in various ways. Any other problems you can think of?

That makes a lot of sense. So really we would need to make a database of local e-shops and then partner up to have phones sold. That is a genius plan to get into the public eye

Better yet say “Then give me your bank account info and social security number”

Can you link the client you use?

No worries, great points you listed and definitely good angles on how to tackle it. Definitely will need a wide range of solutions done in tandem and those are definitely up there as well

https://alternativeto.net/ (The website is not FOSS but they list all kinds of alternatives to many things that are open source)

Hmmm well for what I know so far based on your very thorough you seem capable and will be if not yet. Anything can be figured out and you look like you have done the pre-work to know what to do. Now you just need a team of people to back you up and consistent action to get it done (I’m not an accountant either haha) But I am hopeful you can do it or assist another person who wants to do that to do the same. Whichever you prefer

I get your point but I mean any countries actually lead by people who want better whether it is Europe or other countries such as Latin America, Africa, or Asia. I’m just getting the ball rolling. Genuinely asking, do you know other countries with stronger protections? Also those things are getting blocked from happening even though they keep trying. It still stands they are moving away from big tech and switching to open source alternatives which is an opportunity. Doing nothing won’t grow the ecosystem and this is one many possibilities to grow altogether. Very often things worth fighting for are not easy

We can do it with multiple countries as well to make it less centralized of an effort

Speak friend, and enter. Double tap chest in sign of respect

That’s a great initiative to setup. Do you know anyone with experience for that or do you plan to set it up? Would love for that to become a thing and can see many people rallying with you to get it done

More Quotes: What about side by side with a friend? My friends you bow to no one. I can’t carry it for you but I can carry you

That is a great way to look at the problem I’ll do some brainstorming and see if I can think of anything else

Very true and agree GrapheneOS is awesome and a very good thing they are doing with that partnership. Europe can partner with GrapheneOS as well since you mentioned them.

Security and privacy are both fundamental and even though they are behind compared to GrapheneOS it does not mean we can’t catch up. Alternatives are a part of life whether it is picking where to live, what/where to buy, what to buy for ingredients to make food, etc. The use case is they want to use open source already for sovereignty and long-term they will be just as good as GrapheneOS in long-term.

Yet we cannot rely on just 1 egg we need a whole nest of them so any of them can have a chance of succeeding. The ones in post mentioned don’t have an oem manufacturer partnered with yet either
