As another user stated in reply to you earlier, this is debatable. Debating does not equal hate, I used to use MicroG a ton (I was a CalyxOS/LineageOS user before). But, you must acknowledge that MicroG still communicates with Google, and you can't disable this at the OS level. That's the primary benefit of sandboxed Google Play - you can take away full access and many apps will continue to function, and on top of that, the sandboxing layer ensures that the rest of your phone is secure.

MicroG is fine, it's great, even. But it's not infallible, and depending on your threat model, that's something to at least consider.

Can you explain more about how it's a trap, though? This is an open source project that you can build yourself.

It should be noted that these were already being mitigated by GrapheneOS before this came out, mostly thanks to the hardware-level USB disable feature. https://grapheneos.social/@GrapheneOS/114081913638905015

Has anyone played along to see what the end scam is?

Induction is the best, I'll never go back

I've had Tuta for years and can't recall ads.. what do you mean?

Tuta has catch all addresses, meaning you can use any email on your domain and it will go into your inbox. You don't even need to "create" it if the option is enabled - it just takes anything sent your domain and drops it into your inbox. For passwords, you can't beat Bitwarden/Vaultwarden. Tuta has a calendar (but I don't really use it, I use self hosted WebDAV instead). I've not needed a cloud drive (I have a NAS and nextcloud) so I can't really suggest anything for that.

Surely this will lower egg prices!

Tuta is fantastic.

[–] AmbiguousProps@lemmy.today 2 points 1 month ago

Tuta has a catch-all option that you could consider. Makes it so you can make any email address under your domain and it'll get to your mailbox.

I luckily haven't encountered these yet, but I primarily use NZB

Self hosted WebDAV is probably your best bet. I have Tuta but use WebDAV for my calendar.
