Why do you still have a Google account? Post reasons why you no longer have one to encourage others. Mine is related to the screenshot.

I still have my account, they don't delete it if I am inactive.
But I don't rely on it anymore.
I host my own mail server.
I host my own storage.
I host my own calendar.
I host my own contact sync.
All documents are edited offline.
I use startpage for search.
I use youtube-dl for videos.
Hooktube for browser videos.
Newpipe for phone videos.

I think it would be nice to go back to when I didn't saw google as an more evil version of Nazis (instead of killing off one race, they want to destroy all humanity).
Once you see them as evil, you have no choice but to escape them. And escaping them is harder and harder.

I have a Google account because I like their services and I'm not gonna go full autist like

Curb stopping is not the same as curb stomping, sir.

JEJ

>I think it would be nice to go back to when I didn't saw google as an more evil version of Nazis (instead of killing off one race, they want to destroy all humanity).
you need to spend some time away from the internet

I have it because it was my first email account and is used to register on shit I need
Also because you can't delete them

imagine using inferior services because you're a retarded contrarian
there are people like that on this very board, lmao

>Sup Forums loves corporations and their shitty products
What happened?

maybe the products are actually not shitty, user

Youtube subscriptions and mail, that's literally it. I might get rid of the mail soon.

Oh damn... Well, Sup Forums is dead.
What did you buy thanks to /csg/, user?

- searx.me for search.
- encrypted, post-Hitler Germany server that I pay 1$/month for mail.
- Backups are encrypted and local only.
- calendar and contacts still jewed by Apple.
- RSS.
- Latex, iWorks, LibreOffice and offline MS Office for documents.
- youtube-dl via mpv/iina for videos. YT is really the hardest. I'm hoping for dtube to become better.

Still have 4 inactive google accounts (IIRC) though that I used to have as trashmails and haven't found the time to delete yet.

>being stopped on a curb
>violent assault

>- encrypted, post-Hitler Germany server that I pay 1$/month for mail.
unless you literally only ever email yourself the botnet has your mail anyway
self-hosting mail is one of the more retarded things nowadays, even if you don't care about everyone blocklisting you and sending your shit to spam

>best search algorithm
Remember when Google Search supported boolean (AND, OR, NOT) operators and parentheses? Or when quoting a phrase meant: "find me that _exact_ fucking phrase, not some completely unrelated variant of it that I want to avoid by using quotes in the first place"? It was good back then, now it's completely fucking useless.

Not to mention their previously god tier reverse image search has now gone to the dogs.

Their search algorithm is cucked these days, Google has a memory hole. All those old sites with awesome content will never see the front page of any search result

google photos is nice though
it's full on botnet but in this case all this pattern matching actually provides a service to the end user, like you can search for a photo of an object and it'll find it

I'm still using a google for one last thing: YouTube playlist.
I'm currently coding a site to manage an watch playlist on YouTube without any account (cookie and id). Once I've that, I'll delete instantly my google account.
Is anyone interested?

People from reddit came like this guy:

wait that doesn't work anymore? i always use boolean

Nothing listed is free. You pay with your privacy.

>you will never a have a huge titted girlfriend

:(

>inb4 retards with fat/obese GF's pop in and say "my GF has HUGE tits"

user.. .

As always "make your own platform". People know they can't do shit. Google knows they can do whatever. It's not going to change unless there's some equally sized competitor trying to take it away. Have a competitor that just has all of what YouTube has. Good fucking luck with that. Also force millions of normal people to move to another platform because for damn sure they don't give a shit enough to create another account for another website and if you don't have enough of an audience, you're not going to get those bucks. They know this, this is why it's being more and more difficult to make pennies from YouTube and post the content that you like rather than the content they want to employ you to do.

I mean, hate it all you want, it's worth hating. It's just that you're yelling at a wall and you're getting a service that you "could do without", technically.

Same with other Google services. Bitch all you want, they're giving you something that there is a chance you either couldn't afford or wouldn't necessarily consider buying if it had a price, and without proper competition.

I've seen her naked

>I host my own mail server

confirmed autism

>you will never a have a huge titted girlfriend
Who would want to? B-cup or less pls.

>vidme was shut down
>vimeo sucks
>other alternatives are just awful or dead

Google has a monopoly on so many fucking things on the internet. Jesus.

flat is justice

Yeah, what the fuck happened to that? I just want to find other instances of the same or similar images, I don't need some retarded image recognition algorithm telling me what it thinks the image depicts. I have eyes, I can see it's a picture of a dog. No, I don't want to search for other information about dogs.

Literally the only reason for having a Google account yet.

they broke it when black people starting bringing up gorilla and stuff. Objective metrics was too accurate, now the SPLC reviews the reverse image search data.

The gorilla stuff happened only after it started trying to identify objects in the picture and search for that instead of just giving me the same image in other places. If I reverse image search a photograph of an actor, I want to find the place it was published and hopefully the name of the actor, not "hurr durr, I am smart algorithm, this image depicts a human". NO FUCKING SHIT IT IS A HUMAN, BUT WHICH FUCKING HUMAN IS IT?

>Why do you still have a Google account? Post reasons why you no longer have one to encourage others. Mine is related to the screenshot.
No choice
I have a gmail account, I have a school gmail account

shit like YouTube doesn't matter, gmail is the only important thing

It's not free though, they aren't offering these services out of the good of their hearts.
Using Google makes you a whore of Babylon, you are trading your identity and allowing Google to direct your thoughts as you use it and its services.

Haven’t used Google whatsoever since I graduated in 2010.

>best ad targeting algorithm
>free storage for all your ad copy and marketing brochures
>free video platform to host all your commercials and promotional videos
>free email service so you can send/receive spam
>free phone service so you can send/receive telemarketing calls
>free tools to make more sales documents and financial projections of all your shilling efforts
>all of this is scanned and processed behind your back by an AI so google can always try to stay one step ahead of your business no matter what

Search results quality has dropped significantly for me in the past 6 months. It's gotten too smart.

Bitch you ticked their captcha to post this nonsense.

>Haven’t used Google whatsoever since I graduated in 2010.
Filename tells us you didn't graduate being an iFaggot however, which is about as bad.

iFaggot, lul, even better, his iCloud shit is kept on Google's storage.

>using the (((cloud)))
Top retard

Because 99.999% of all my accounts use Gmail dipshit

they know that the addicted retards will keep using their services so they do whatever they want and no social media shitposters are going to stop them.
