Right now a lot of us are trying to divest and diversify from having our entire lives on Google both because of the way Google spends its money and the long-standing privacy concerns seeming a bit more scary now.

What services have you switched to and what has your experience been? What do you like, what don’t you like, would you recommend them?

    The problem with Google services is that they will be probably one of the last ones (from big tech companies) I will stop using. I wanted to switch to Proton this year, but there has been some controversy of its CEO supporting Trump…

      Google’s CEO literally showed up to Trump’s inauguration and pretty sure even paid millions or billions. So if you’re not using Proton because their CEO made a tweet supporting Trump, then Google should probably be one of the first companies that you must boycott, in my opinion.
