Phasing out my Google usage.
I didn't really use Facebook, Twitter other "big tech" shite, so those would have been on the list to phase out too.
I used to use Google for everything (documents, notes, email, photos, videos, passwords, browser, phone) but the only remaining hard dependency I have on Google is YouTube.
I do everything I can to avoid giving Google useful data here but it's sadly still a lot and I'm still at the whims of the tech giant on whether that remains a possibility. The only reason youtube-dl, Piped, Newpipe, SmartTubeNext etc. still exist is that Google hasn't thrown significant money towards blocking them yet.
If I want to see something interesting, Nebula has me like 40% covered nowadays, so that has been pretty decent but I don't see YouTube going away as the prime entertainment and learning platform any time soon as there aren't any real competitors in the indie video publishing business. :/
That's the joke.
