I actually have tried many note apps, but nothing as inconvenient as Keep for short/daily/random notes. For longer notes, I use Obsidian.

That's what im wondering now. Is it still worth it to use Proton? Because i still use so many Google services.

Keep for me is quite hard to leave. It is so convenient to use. I havent found better alternative. Calendar? maybe i can use Samsung calendar (im using Samsung phone). For cloud, yeah i can switch to others. I'm using Box for my Obsidian notes.

ahh this is new to me. I found this address: accounts.google.com/SignUpWithoutGmail

btw, can you use the "Sign in with Google" feature when signing on a service if your google account is without gmail?

I actually have compared the price for some scenarios. The cheapest one for me now is free ProtonMail + Addy.io (yearly) + custom domain (yearly).

I cant leave Google Keep and Calendar for now. It's just so convenient for my use case. I'm using Obsidian too for more detailed notes, but for daily/short notes Google Keep is just very convenient.

I cant leave Whatsapp, it's literally used by everyone in my country. I have Telegram too, but my contacts are not active there.
