Ignoring reasons why I try to avoid Google, the following has worked well for me:
Mail - FastMail (spam detection not great but still works)
Search - StartPage (still google but proxied since DDG results are inferior in my experience)
Browser - Firefox (syncs to all my devices)
Maps - keyworded bookmark on Firefox to go to DDG maps powered by Apple Maps. Otherwise on phone it’s Apple Maps
Storage - Dropbox
Docs - local files synchronized to Dropbox
Last remaining service: YouTube. I’d love for the content providers I consume from to start posting on other platforms but that’s just not the case. For that, I use a google account for just YouTube.
- wpdev_63 6y agodtube is an interesting alternative to youtube. It's a youtube clone built on ipfs. The only problem it doesn't have the same amount of content as youtube - nobody does.
