i avoid google as much as possible.

my new (last year) phone is android, but it's a basic flipper. no apps or play store, no internets, not even an account needed for it. don't know what i'll do for a wireless phone when this type is no longer available.

i use gmail for one work-related email, because i need one that's not hosted on one of our own domains, but i mostly use a mail client for it.

i do not use anything else related to google, except for consuming yt videos in a private browser session with ad and script blockers and a couple userscripts--and no login.

i use duck for most of my searching. when i need to test something in a chromium-based browser, or want to utilize browser addons that are not available for firefox, i use a new portable install of opera or vivaldi and delete it when i'm done (right now, i've got one set up to watch a streaming service, using an addon to autoplay).
