#SimpleNote is pretty great. It's FOSS, cross-platform, and has a great terminal client, "sncli."

on the notes part, I would personally also include Logseq. The project doesn't have a Fediverse account, which is a shame, but it's a open-source outliner

It seems, as if there is a category missing:
operating systems

I'd put in: #LinuxMint (or any other distros) or a #BSD system.

#bsd #linuxmint

DuckDuck and Brave products shouldn't be on this list. They are not fully private. They also been caught lying to users and even more than once. Not by some accidental mistake but on the purpose. Such companies can not be trusted anymore!
And for example #Jami can be added to the listing as an another foss, private, very decent made communicator.

You put Duckduckgo, which sends telemetry data to Microsoft, and you don't put meta search engines like SearX, which are open source?

Interested to know why you recommend these tools over those recommended by @privacyguides where the two lists differ...

I recommend none of these browsers you listed. Try @Waterfox and @Vivaldi instead.

Librewolf with my own instance of SearX. Tuta and Proton for mail. Yubico and Aegis for MFA. Self-hosted Joplin for notes (can't imagine living without that, and still trying to figure out how I did before I knew about it).

Messaging over session only, and Molly for what few Normies I haven't been able to convert (Signal).

Dont worry if you are using other not listed apps 🤣. In my case: Firefox (I dont trust forks), Tuta, Bitwarden, 2FAS (MFA backup), Obsidian, Signal. Same apps for macOS and iOS.

I tested Simplex chat for 5 months and realized that even though I didn't use the app, it consumed a lot of data (quite a lot) in the background. I conclude that this data hijacking is quite suspicious. Anyone who wants to test their data consumption can use the Glasswire app.

why would you include literal spyware (Brave and Firefox) in this list...

also there is literally no point in startpage since it pretty much brings up google results which are heavily censored and extremely low-quality.
Consider Mojeek or searx instances
