    • Using Vivaldi more than, and soon instead of, Edge
    • Tutanota subscription for extra emails (might also get one for Proton at some point, one can never have too many emails)
    • Koffr for medium-sized cloud storage instead of Google Drive
    • LanguageTool for small text cloud storage and instead of Grammarly
    • Mistral instead of ChatGPT and sometimes instead of Google Translate (I can tell it to show its work)

    And soon(weeks/days from now):

    • Linux as main OS instead of Windows

      BTW, Grammarly is a sad story. They started out in Kiev in 2009, and sometime in the 2010s, they moved their headquarters to San Francisco. Idk if they gave official reasons.
