    Not so expensive on long term and anyway cheaper than a iPhone with similar specs, the advantage of Fairphone is, it’s modular, you can substitute or fix easy everything in the phone by yourself.

    If you use Murena mail, Murena (e-Foundation) is a EU Cloud provider (OpenSource, selfhostable, encrypted, no-knowledge, green energy) and author of /e/OS and NextCloud, apart asociated with FairPhone, you can buy it there (Murena Phone) with /e/OS by default. It’s by far the best alternative of GDrive, made in the EU.

        Only Office is an OpenSource and encrypted online office suite, made in the EU. You can even selfhost it. Full compatible with files from MS Office. But if you know better online Office suites, use it. It’s very valid that Murena use it.

          It’s slow and prone to crashing. The formatting makes the documents not compatible with other clients half the time. I have lost way too many documents due to corruption when saving (both on third party hosts and selfhosting). I’m absolutely done with that junk. Or, I’d like to be, but any alternative has dropped their own efforts in favor of just setting up an OnlyOffice, basically making them one of the very few open source options out there now in terms of web based office clients.

            The speed depends not of the Office suite as such, but on the server it use to host it, Murena hosted it on the own server (NextCloud), but as said, you are free to host it by yourself. I’m an old retiree and don’t need a big cloud service, enough for me to store the few things locally and for this I prefer to use the online SSuite, also privacy focused, even if it isn’t OpenSource. Also Html5, but without account, anonym, free and blazing fast, no ads, no trackers, nor other crap, files a stored locally. It’s a hobby project from 2 electricians, which gain money with their jobs, no interests of tracking or user data to make money.
