Why is anyone under the impression that living sans Google is difficult or unrewarding? I haven't used a single Google product in months (and I use Android.)

- tolmasky 14y agoSo you do use a Google product, one of the ones they care most about right now.
- Kerrick 14y agoFor anybody who wants to go for Android without Google, try Replicant, an Android distribution only running free (libre) software through its whole stack. http://replicant.us/about/ http://replicant.us/about/
- nilved 14y agoThere isn't a trace of Google on my Android phone unless you count blames for the source code.
- pbreit 14y ago> Why is anyone under the impression that living sans Google is difficult or unrewarding? Because it plainly is. Let's just take search. I try to switch to Bing or DDG every 3-6 months and can't take it for more than a few days. It is very, very clearly difficult and unrewarding.
- nilved 14y agoI've been using DDG full-time for almost 3 years, even since before I abandoned Google. The !bang searches alone made it a better option for me.
