this needs to stop man
I recently completely finished completely decoupling my life from Google. My GMail account isn't used for anything of importance anymore. People really should take a moment and think about what would be the consequences if Google suddenly mistakenly deleted their account like that. A lot of people's entire lives are connected to their GMail account.
same here, the only google thing i use is youtube
That's probably going to be the toughest for me, but I'll still try.
YouTube is fine by me. I don't care that they track my activity there because they use it to recommend videos and I usually only go there when I have time to waste, which actually makes sense. My YouTube account is its own thing that I don't use for anything else too. On top of that I use ad blockers so they can't even make money off of me. If anything, I cost them money by using YouTube.
