~~I regularly get messages asking about which tools I use to work.~~
Nobody has asked me what I use. Ever. But here's a list of my daily drivers and necessities anyways, mostly revolving around my Apple sheepy-ness. Inspired by [many, many others](https://uses.tech/). ❤️

## ☁️&nbsp;&nbsp;Cloud
I've been making recent efforts to [de-Google](/zip) my life, with mixed results...
- ~~Gmail~~ → [**Fastmail**](https://www.fastmail.com/) ([referral link](https://ref.fm/u20274504)) & [**Mail.app**](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Mail)
- ~~Google Drive~~ → ~~Dropbox~~ → [**iCloud Drive**](https://www.icloud.com/iclouddrive)
- [Read why.](/notes/dropping-dropbox)
- ~~Google Docs~~ → [**Microsoft Office**](https://products.office.com/en-us/mac/microsoft-office-for-mac) (hey, it works 🤷)
- ~~Google Photos~~ → [**iCloud Photos**](https://www.icloud.com/photos/) and [**Immich**](https://immich.app/)
- ~~Google Analytics~~ → [**Fathom Analytics**](https://usefathom.com/) ([referral link](https://usefathom.com/ref/ZEYG0O))
- ~~Google Public DNS~~ → [**Cloudflare's 1.1.1.1**](https://1.1.1.1/dns/) on my home network.
- ~~GoDaddy~~ → ~~Google Domains~~ → [**Cloudflare Registrar**](https://www.cloudflare.com/products/registrar/) (and [**ISNIC**](https://isnic.is/en/) for this domain, of course 🇮🇸)
Other geeky stuff:
- [**Vercel**](https://vercel.com/) and [**Netlify**](https://www.netlify.com/) for "serverless" sites.
- [**DigitalOcean**](https://www.digitalocean.com/) ([referral link](https://m.do.co/c/afcf288a7dac)) and [**Linode**](https://www.linode.com/) ([referral link](https://www.linode.com/?r=0c5aeace9bd591be9fbf32f96f58470295f1ee05)) for virtual Linux servers.
- [**DNSimple**](https://dnsimple.com/) ([referral link](https://dnsimple.com/r/eb6ced548f1e0a)) and [**Cloudflare**](https://www.cloudflare.com/) for domain DNS.
- [**Backblaze**](https://www.backblaze.com/) ([referral link](https://secure.backblaze.com/r/00x84e)) for off-site Mac backups.
- [**Gitea**](https://gitea.io/en-us/) as a [self-hosted](https://git.jrvs.io/) Git backup/mirror.
- [**Tailscale**](https://tailscale.com/) to access my home network and VPSes from anywhere.
## 🏠&nbsp;&nbsp;Internet of ~~Things~~ Crap
- [**Philips Hue**](https://www2.meethue.com/en-us) color bulbs, dimmer switches, etc.
- 2x [**ecobee3 lite**](https://www.ecobee.com/en-us/smart-thermostats/smart-wifi-thermostat/)
- 2x [**Sonos One**](https://www.sonos.com/en-us/shop/one.html) (with Alexa turned off...hopefully? 🤫)
