Friendly reminder that if you're a person who respects their individual privacy and freedom, there is no reason to be using the products created by the CIA honeypot that is the Google company.

There is a plethora of options available for you to replace your Google apps that are lighter, faster and better in general, including respect for freedom and privacy.

Anything that could have multiple meanings or is similar to x more popular thing, a search engine will default to the most popular thing in both cases as generally that is what people will be looking for, but with Google because of its' data collection it knows that maybe you're not interested in these things, so it pushes the what would otherwise be a less relevant result to the top for you. Sure you can guess that Google probably sells your information to chink botnets or whatever, but it's not without benefit for the end user.

The one thing I'm struggling to replace is Google News. I like just being able to search a topic and seeing a wide range of articles from different outlets on it. Duckduckgo has a similar feature, but it just doesn't seem to be as good, with comparisons of results revealing a lot lacking.

Youtube, there's no getting away from, particuarly on the dekstop. NewPipe fucking blows.

>Click the 3 dots tab in the top right of Chrome

Now it will open the website with no search bar so you can't accidentally walk into the botnet. Addons like Viramate will still work.

Duckduckgo is garbage and startpage is literally a google renderer which always takes a second too long to load results.
Opera is a chink botnet.
Cloud storage is a meme.
Yalp store is another google renderer and the only good alternative on the list.
Signal isn't as privacy oriented as Wire.

I think the biggest issue with browsers is the same issue with Linux.

You have Chrome and Edge. Those are the two browsers worth a damn. Firefox is a relic that's been getting the shit absolutely kicked out of it. It's only relevant because it's in peoples' memories.

Then you have the FOSS browsers. And you have a million of them. And everyone thinks their flavor of the best. And some have good features unique to themselves instead of shared. And so you can't push a good unified FOSS browser. Because there isn't one taking all the best bits of everything else and putting into a superbrowser.

Same fucking reason Linux will never, ever, ever be a viable OS.

It isn't bait. Any 8 year old can change the icon in Firefox or Chromium and roll out their own fucking browser.

The entire point of FOSS is so people can cooperate and coordinate and get shit done via a community effort and having more eyes and minds working to build things.

Instead you have some aimless Katamari-of-Babel that is FOSS.

How to De-Google v1.0 by HTr

>Muh search engine!
StartPage, Searx, Qwant, Bing(?), or DuckDuckGo.
>Muh browser!
If you still want the Chrome experience, use Opera, Vivaldi, Iridium, Chromium, or UnGoogled Chromium. Otherwise, Firefox and its various forks.
>Muh email!
Cock.li, ProtonMail(?), StartMail(?), or a self-hosted email server.
>Muh cloud storage!
ownCloud, **generic** self-hosted file server, offline old or current computer, or just hard drives with data and you plug them in to your computer.
>Muh app store!
F-Droid for FOSS, Yalp Store for downloading raw APKs from Play Store.
>Muh YouTube!
Frontends/YT only: NewPipe or whatever the best fork is on F-Droid, or the actual YouTube website for mobile. For desktop, don't login to the site. Alternatives: vid.me, Vimeo, etc.
>Muh messaging!
Telegram, WhatsApp, Conversations (XMPP), Signal, QKSMS, or Discord.
>Muh calender!
Physical calender.
>Muh keep!
Physical notebook or Evernote(?).
>Muh news!
RSS client, television

I'm pretty sure this exceptionally stupid.
