Trying to replace all my US based big-tech choices for Canadian alternatives.

Main ones:

  • cloudflare (domain and site hosting)
  • bitwarden
  • discord (a true alternative, but not sure if there is one)

Willing to hear of other recommendations for daily software as well :)

I moved my blog and my cloud storage to HostHero, they have great phone support. When I was looking to move my blog from wordpress to a Canadian server I emailed many and HostHero was the only one who got back to me. I am using 1Password, only because I have difficulties getting bitwarden running locally, maybe I will try again prior to the one month being up.

I used to use Apple’s hide my email but I have moved almost all those random emails that forwarded to a separate account to HostHero. I use seperate emails for things so that I know if a company has sold my information or has been breached. If it was the former I can turn off the email and forget about the company if it was the later I can inform them, turn off the email, and create a new one.
