I can't imagine depending on Google to store anything. They shouldn't be able to even see what links you save.
As someone who just converted from Chrome to Firefox 1-2 months ago: what alternative can you recommend to Google Drive? I wouldn't miss everything from it, but being able to easily share data (so that they can play videos, audio files or documents without having to manually download them) is one of them.
EDIT: and maybe Google Photos. Mainly for syncing.
I use Sync.com for years (since 2015 after my very privacy heavy swiss cloud service shut down). It's Canadian, the end-to-end encryption (on device,upload and cloud) is the highest I encountered and it's extensive zero-knowledge policy was my reason to sign up.
They added some nice sharing features with quite the extensive control and easy Setup. So might be worth checking out.
And obligatory referral link for a free account 🙃:
