I'm so much happier since I abandoned all of Google. Photos are with Ente (shitty buggy apps but e2e & managed hosting), Mail, Calendar and cloud storage is at Proton, Keep notes were moved to Obsidian (best decision ever). Phone is a Pixel 9 Pro XL with GrapheneOS but I'm ready to ditch it once Motorola ships their 2027 flagships supporting GrapheneOS. I have maybe 3 apps that I still have to open Play Store with a throwaway account for.
No idea how I managed to gaslight myself into liking Google products this long. I guess one just gets used to the overall brokenness, daily feature flag changes and the feeling of every interaction with their stuff being stored and analyzed forever.
