• switching.software: "Ethical, easy-to-use and privacy-conscious alternatives to well-known software"

• How to leave Google behind, a list of privacy-friendly alternatives from Tutanota (featured in Best email provider).
• AlternativeTo: "crowdsourced software recommendations." Search on the name of a tool you want alternatives to. The results include Big Tech tools that we recommend against, but it can be helpful to see a long list of alternatives.
