Obviously it's not impossible, but you just listed out how you use all of them. You guess Android counts, well of course it does.

- roblabla 9y agoI actually finally managed to divorce most of my data (apart from search) from google. I'm running LineageOS without gapps, using microG for the play services. Geolocalisation is done with a service provided by mozilla (which I trust a lot more), and it's been working great for now. For the maps app, I use OSMand, and eventually, I hope to use my own backend for GCM (though that will require some changes to microG). My contacts and calendar are synchronized with a webdav server called radicale that I self-host. I also self-host my own mail with a postfix+dovecot setup. Really, the last remaining google service I use is google search. And I've hit a brick wall there. The alternatives just suck too much. DDG's search result has been consistently terrible, and while I still hope qwant will one day turn into a great product, right now the search result are still significantly poorer than google's. Android doesn't count with a setup similar to mine, because it's all open source and doesn't communicate with google outside of expectations :).
