Overwhelmed by privacy
I started the privacy and degoogling journey about two weeks ago and I am feeling overwhelmed already.
I changed gmail for protonmail
Google photos and files for fossify
Firefox for Brave
Firefox relay for simplelogin
I use protonVPN
Drive for syncthing
Etc..
Even I erased all the mentioned apps and installed it via fdroid and obtanium.
But I think it is just pointless... I have youtube, whatsapp, hbo max, Uber and social media, so I think i'm just losing my time trying to be like Snowden and not really achieving anything.
I know that at least my mails and files will be private, but what about the rest?
And the more I get private the more I feel bad for my friends and family who doesn't know anything about it.
I can help but I think I'm going crazy with all this stuff. And if I try to be also secure y must read the documentation and it is tedious to read the documentation and ToS of all the programs that I want to use.
Even if I get rid of all this apps I will still have a normal phone and not a degoogled pixel.
I'm sorry if I'm complaining too much, I need a good advice though, because this is driving me crazy and I can just give up, because I think that until the day I day I will live the same way with or without online privacy, but something tells me I shouldn't do it. I don't know how to equilibrate mind wellness and privacy.
