    Only reason I use my gmail anymore is literally only for the people I actually care about on yt. It’s not ideal, but I’d rather they only take the data from what I watch, which isn’t useful when they aren’t able to show me ads.

    Though, they also get info from the remaining services I have yet to switch from my gmail as well, so yeah. Again, not ideal, but better than nothing.

      I deleted google and only have game accounts email only from simplelogin aliases. Maybe you’ll eventually realize google is a shit company and leave that environment as well.

        As much as I don’t like gøøgl€, on the phone front, it’s the lesser of the two evils I can choose from currently. I probably won’t be able to outright buy my next phone before getting service and slap on a custom ROM, so I’d rather deal with the devil I know over appl€.

            There definitely are options, but I’m just not sure I’ll be able to outright purchase a phone and flash a ROM like grapheneos on it. I feel as though at this point I’ll probably have to end up just upgrading through my carrier and I don’t know if they even allow you to root or flash phones from them without terminating service.
