Hey all, sorry for an off topic post but I need help from someone more technologically inclined than myself. Honestly there’s no where else on the internet I can stand to be currently.
I’ve seen people post about moving completely off of google- how can I do that? What is the best email service? What should I replace google drive with? Can I have a YouTube account with a non gmail address? Anyone used proton mail? Can I have multiple accounts like I do with google? Is there anything else I’m forgetting as far as privacy?
Thanks for any info!
I started off using DuckDuckGo and whilst they swear they don't track/record your info I'm fairly certain they do. IIRC DDG was bought by a sub of Alphabet?
Brave browser is better, simply download it and use, it has a sort of built in Tor browser which is better than nothing.
Unless you are properly into code that's about it. You can and should try using a VPN but again be very careful don't always go for the most popular one or cheapest, research to find a service that does not log your history. Some claim not to log, then have handed over exactly that.
