Hi! Just wanting to migrate from big tech and going BuyfromEU. I am trying out Posteo, which does not have an app only web interface. Since I can’t stay logged in on the web I’m using Apple Mail app as a gateway to simplify usage. To my question, is this totally counter productive to my privacy, pro-eu stance? Will apple mail collect my posteo data through the posteo now instead? Previously using outlook.
Thanks in advance!
I disagree. Even for the average user being relegated to the Apple ecosystem is a worse situation than being in Google’s one where you at least have a far broader choice of apps to use as an alternative to the stock ones.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion of course, but to me it’s a no-brainer to choose between the company that sells hardware and the company that sells users to advertisers.
Apple’s business includes advertisement too though. I can agree that it is not Google, but not that it is only a hardware seller.

At least Android has degoogled variants.
Custom ROMs are obviously the best choice but we’re talking specifically about what advice to give to a non-technical user who isn’t going to unlock their bootloader and flash a custom ROM, nor are they going to be able to use a linux phone or some other alternative that requires some technical know-how.
You can do that for them, you can show them. Apple want us to feel alone but we are not. Want to really fix privacy? Make in-person groups. Apple wants us alone. It helps Apple and Google takeover.
Yeah, fair. Still, Graphene was very easy to install and I think that my mom would’ve been able to use the web installer.
