  • I’m working on getting rid of Google, but it is linked into so many things it’s going to take a lot of time to do it completely.

    I’ve moved away from Chrome as a browser and Google as a search engine. I’m starting to disconnect other accounts I’ve logged into using Google as well.

    I’m setting up new email accounts - I’m using my own domain name so I can move in future instead of feeling so tied to one provider.

    At some point I need to look at Google drive/photos - I think there are a couple of things that synchronize through there still. The find my phone service is tied into Google. All my apps are downloaded from the Play store, and there are a few things tied into Google Wallet.

    I can get rid of the main bits, but I think it’s going to take years to get rid of it all.
