Friendly reminder that if you're a person who respects their individual privacy and freedom, there is no reason to be using the products created by the botnet that is the Google company.
There is a plethora of options available for you to replace your Google apps that are lighter, faster and better in general, including respect for freedom and privacy.
>search engine? SearX, DuckDuckGo, StartPage, Yandex (Soviet Botnet) >browser? Brave, Vivaldi >email? Self Host, cock.li, Proton Mail, Hotmail (Still Botnet) Yandex (Soviet Botnet) >cloud storage? Syncthing, ownCloud, Nextcloud app store? F-Droid, Yalp for Play Store front end >YouTube? NewPipe for mobile, not signing in on desktop >SMS/Hangouts? XMPP, Signal. >calendar? Nextcloud, ownCloud, RadiCAL, >keep? NextCloud, keep it in your emails. >news? RSS client, Librenews
On a completely unpolitical note, I might just migrate to Vivaldi if I were you. I even thought that Opera was officially dead at one point.
Justin Turner
fyi DuckDuckGo is not that much better than Google, and StartPage's results are enhanced by Google code
Nathan Jenkins
>Yandex Another state owned information harvesting search engine. I'd prefer to get away from those in general
Angel Gutierrez
>(((Signal)))
ftfy, literally anything is better including whatsapp
Jonathan Rodriguez
>someone is addressing this I'm glad, really. I've been thinking about this, and everyone always says "Yo Google it", that puts Google right into our language, a company used in every day conversation as a verb. What more power could you ask for? It does need to stop, but aside from that what's the rundown on these threads I've seen them for a couple of days now?
Juan Clark
>including whatsapp >(((whatsapp))) no. i don't into signal, and still no.
Carson Barnes
How about this: Go outside you lost faggots.
Kevin Howard
I've been saying for a while that this won't work. See , Google is literally the Coca-Cola of search engines/IT right now.
The only two ways Google can be brought down are promoting companies like Baidu in China (which is bad itself, but at least gives Google a run for its money) and straight up physically seizing Google's offices, though then it'd just change hands. Unless the entire building, office, headquarters or whatever is physically burnt down, making operating impossible for them.
Jordan Smith
Use SearX.me.

+use adnauseam.io or similar
Sebastian Thompson
What's better, brave or degoogled chromium with adnauseum?
Luis Murphy
>degoogled chromium
no such thing, so brave
but there are uch better choices like pale moon and even ff
Adrian Wright
Brave because ungoogled chromium doesn't have an active development team. With brave you can just download it, change your search engine to SearX or Yandex and completely degoogle yourself in very few steps.
I like brave because the dev team is led by notorious anti-gay crusader Brendan Eich. I feel I can trust these guys
Camden Jenkins
>>>another /general/ to shit up the board This is an image board. You make threads. Go back to whatever shitty site you came from if you want threads up forever.
Brayden Davis
Yep
Nathaniel Wood
>notorious anti-gay crusader Brendan Eich he is just a mormon autist. not exactly a heroic figure. mozila was run like shit and firefox was complete garbage under his leadership.
Leo Russell
This thread should be made often.
So which is the best search engine for someone coming from google? Brave or searx?
It's no good giving multiples, most people will only swap if you give them a good alternative.
Christopher Brown
Yandex is a good search engine, just don't use the browser
Charles Hall
Use brave i got a shitton of bat
Jordan Phillips
Brave is unusable in its current state.
Alexander Baker
Also, whenever you want to say "nigger" say "Google" instead.
Jace Kelly
How? I use it and it's fine.
Elijah Ross
>mormon autist You just described 99% of Sup Forums
Caleb Walker
He also just so happened to write JavaScript.
Gavin Ramirez
Haven't used it for a couple months now because it kept crashing randomly. It was also impossible to turn off hardware acceleration, don't know if it's been fixed.
Cameron Jenkins
Don't tell me what to do.
Matthew Williams
I tried brave and it was "ok" for the most part. However their web "debugging" is a nightmare (requires external plugins etc to even work, annoying from what I remember). I am going to give Vivaldi a try and see if its better
Jordan Foster
iOS CyanogenMod/lineageOS And if any of you autists can fork Ubuntu phone and actually maintain it.
Chase Myers
Is it a good idea to use cock.li on serious inquiries?
Gavin Carter
Use telegram.
Ayden Moore
Really no mention of gnu icecat the superior browser No. They offer things like @airmail.cc though which are far less retarded looking.
Cooper Smith
>seizing Google's offices Shouldn't be too difficult, they'd be the kind of people who hate guns
Blake Green
They recently updated it. I would give it another shot.
Jack Bell
and requires an invite...
Adrian Price
Google already had the copyright challenge where they have become synonymous with language. I have the belief with our current political spectrum the government isn't seizing them.
If you want something, you have to attempt to take matters into your own hands and then designate responsibility to those around you.
Nicholas Thompson
No? What puts you under that impression?
Charles Cook
cock.li requires invites now?
Hunter Nguyen
"Airmail is an invite-only E-mail server focused toward professionals and E-mail enthusiasts. To report abuse please E-mail [email protected]. "
Josiah Green
Go to cock.li, then go to register and use the dropdown to select airmail.cc. No invite required, presumably they just put that on airmail.cc to make people fuck off if they ever stumbled onto it
Jace Gray
OP doesn't mention AdNauseum or any other adblockers as a way of fighting g-man.
sage
Jayden Thomas
Maybe we can get Ubuntu to take another crack at making a cell phone.
In the meantime there's Microsoft :(
Ryan Williams
Stop fucking shilling AdNauseum. uBlock Origin and uMatrix are what people should be using. Not some retarded "dude lol fuck the man by doing the thing that gets them payed" jewish designed plugin
Adnauseum is primarily used through Chrome. Google can and will fight it.
This is a degoogle thread.
John Flores
Duckduckgo many times has been stated to be jewish owned and suspicious.
Colton Brooks
uBlock, ABP, uMatrix, are all fine solutions as well.
Why'd you leave the most damaging measures to google off your original post?
Hunter Young
Thanks. I only need to immigrate from Google Drive, Youtube and Jewdroid now.
Any tips on how to get those going? Simple way to dispose Jewdroid is to pick up another phone but youtube is the most important part for me.
Ryder Harris
>Alternative (((brave)))
>not Qwant
Joshua Perry
jew owned. the only search engine that is not cuck'd or kike'd is Qwant.
Brandon Clark
You mean my post about a browser and telling a guy about the other domains cock.li offers? I didn't think to mention adblocking until you brought up retarded adnauseum, mainly I assume most people already use an adblocker of some sort considering we're on Sup Forums. And ABP isn't all that good IIRC they're jews who let ads pay them to not be blocked, they might have not went through with that though. I have a vague notion that playing youtube videos through mpv would be fucking google over since it won't actually load the page and will just be taking the video feed. No idea if it will actually do that though.
Hudson Wood
Better than the previous version made by someone on a certain board.
Bentley Gutierrez
Alright, I just adopted Qwant and the page looks horrific. Any option to ONLY view search results instead of images/videos/news and to hide that gigantic fucking sidebar?
Isaiah Wilson
What do I put here so searx works when I type shit in the address bar?
Kayden Morris
Just use Brave. It comes as a default search engine.
Sebastian Clark
Okay, so other than being owned by a Jew, has DDG done anything to betray their stated dedication to privacy and not bubbling the user? I use it and the results are good and bangs are incredibly useful. They even have a bunch for Sup Forums, including Sup Forums.
Wyatt Taylor
>DuckDuckGoy
Jose Edwards
Use Searx or Yandex instead.
Easton Lee
How do you even install add ons in Brave, this looks very barebones. I might be retarded though.
>In fact, DuckDuckGo gets its results from over four hundred sources. These include hundreds of vertical sources delivering niche Instant Answers, DuckDuckBot (our crawler) and crowd-sourced sites (like Wikipedia, stored in our answer indexes). We also of course have more traditional links in the search results, which we source from Bing, Yahoo, and Yandex.
David Roberts
Do they spy on me? Do they want to remove me?

>And if any of you autists can fork Ubuntu phone and actually maintain it. that would be awesome. it has a great looking UI too. my understanding is they abandoned it because it was too hard to get drivers and firmware for all the manufacturers that were loyal to (((android))). we need to have a nice long reverse engineering session on Sup Forums and try to hammer some firmwarez out desu
Benjamin Mitchell
Sasha Greyberg
Daniel Cox
True. Come to think of it, I've seen that posted a couple times in these threads.
Bentley Reyes
>looks at post >looks at flag
Andrew Foster
All good. What frustrates me is that we HAVE to do captchas. Using NoScript, I only allow *temporary* google on a thread IF I'm going to reply, and it's on a tab/page by tab/page basis which I get to decide whether to allow it or not.
If anyone else has a better idea or way, let's hear it. I want to starve this monster to death.
Ryan Taylor
Wew, a joint operation by Sup Forums and Sup Forums, never thought to see the day. Good luck.
Parker Flores
Which should I use Vivaldi or Brave? And recommended addons/plugins?
