   @papush good thing is, you don't really need all that google stuff. In fact you don't need computers that much.
   
   Need a map? There are paper maps.
   Need to make notes? Get a pen and a notebook.
   Need to send a message? Send a postcard! (Ok that's a stretch, but it -is- an option)
   
   Reject modernity, go back to monke

     @fristi @papush You can use free software on computers instead of google malware.
     
     >Need a map? There are paper maps.
     There is openstreetmap, with many free clients available like Emacs M-x osm, Marble and Osmand~
     
     >Need to make notes? Get a pen and a notebook.
     Any free text editor or Emacs org mode will do.
     
     >Need to send a message? Send a postcard!
     There are many freedom respecting ways to deliver a message quickly.

     @Suiseiseki @fristi @papush Yes but OSM is largely outdated af (atleast in my country), not to mention, no proper client for Android

     It's time to get contributing then.
     
     I specifically mentioned an Android client, although only the older versions are free for sure (f-droid started to build software with a proprietary google buildsystem at one stage); https://f-droid.org/en/packages/net.osmand.plus/

     @Suiseiseki @papush true, just mainly saying, besides OSS there is also the option of going low-tech.
