    I don’t have my own domain for my email, I just switched to Infomaniak’s domain. I then use Thunderbird with the unified inbox to view all my emails in one inbox. So I get both my gmail and infomaniak emails in Thunderbird. I didn’t bother changing all of my old accounts using the gmail to use infomaniak instead - there’s just so many accounts and it didn’t seem worth it. Primary goal for me was to stop paying Google for drive space.

    The transition was pretty easy honestly, once I sat down to do it. The largest obstacle is honestly the mental one, of getting oneself to actually commit to doing it.

    Can you set up cloud backup of photos from your phone, etc?

    Yes, the kDrive app can be set to automatically upload pictures you take on your phone to your kDrive. I actually like it even better than on Google, cause on Google my photos never got to Google Drive, but went to Google Photos. So I didn’t automatically have them on my PC. With the kDrive app, you just choose a folder in your drive where the photos are saved, and then it saves them there, and it gets synced to your PC if you run the kDrive app there obviously.
