Without having watched it, I'll guess stopping it goes in the line of "little by little, but growing ever more independant from it".

    That's what I'm doing..

    Switch away from Google Chrome to [redacted].

    Switch away from Google Search to [redacted].

    Get a free [redacted] account and start moving accounts.

    Use [redacted] instead of Google Maps, discover [redacted] is now owned by Google, buy a fucking atlas. Fuck this timeline.

    Next step/shit to figure out:

    Move my contacts off of Google.

    The Last Thing I'll Do: Migrate Photos to a self-hosted solution.

    Edit: Why is this downvoted? Did you guys follow me from reddit lol

    Edit 2: Removed any mention of software that may have offended people.

    I can recommend HereWeGo as an alternative to Maps. I switched two years ago and I am quite happy with it ever since.
