Recently, a roundup of underrated projects that help users degoogle gained attention. These privacy-focused tools—alternative app stores, open-source video editors, community-driven app finders—show how individuals can reclaim agency over their digital lives.

I build Halal Food Scanner, an iPhone and Android app (Expo / React Native) that tells you if a food is halal.
