I would never pay google for anything. They’re making enough money taking all your data and selling it. I will always use an ad blocker with sponsor block and donate to any content creator that provides good content for me.

I’ve had some success using piped kavin rocks as a private front end. But I admit I still fall back to YouTube using an Adblock and sponsor block a lot of the time.

Weren’t they brought by an ad company?

That’s fair, it took me a while to get away from Google as well. Everyone’s journey is different and can take a while to completely move away from them. The only difficulty I had was replacing YouTube.

I’m surprised anyone on privacy guides would still be using Google. That notification alone would make me want to switch

Same here. I installed signal but only managed to convince 2 people to use it so far. Everyone else is on WhatsApp

For UK users, I had to search for lemmy and scroll to find the app. It wouldn’t show up searching for mommy
