You’re gonna have to do it eventually. Take advantage of the outrage you’re feeling and get it done now. Won’t take long for Google to become a direct government surveillance tool.
They are too big to care about user feedback at this point.
I know for more deeply integrated people de-googling can be a huge pain, but I’ve really enjoyed the process. It’s somehow enjoyable finding and exploring alternate solutions with their own setups and features, and settling on things that don’t make you feel gross to use.
YouTube and Voice are the two I haven’t found great alternatives for. Odysee seems like it might have potential for video stuff? And I use a Peertube instance for uploading videos, but people will only ever see those if I send them the link; it doesn’t have the community/discoverability aspects. Not that I’m looking to be discovered, but I can see how it isn’t particularly viable for people who are.
May I be so bold as to suggest an alternative?

I just wish there was a good alternative to Youtube, but nothing has the same userbase. And frankly half of them wouldn’t want me
