Yes. I use a Gmail account for work (Outlook also) and Google Drive to upload quotes and sales forecasts.
I can understand for Work. Most employers do not care about Google one way or the other.
I've got a Box account.

for anyone looking for a non-Googly browser:
I use Brave, it's a knock off of Chrome but started by the guy who created Javascript and was fired from Firefox for donating to the campaign to fight fig "marriage"

I use Google Chrome, Google search, and Youtube. No hardware though.

I can not avoid using google and amazon unfortunately
Amazon sucks too. Ten years ago I might have spent over $5,000 in a year. Today, less than $250 per year. There are a LOT of other options.

Yes, and anyone who says no simply doesn’t realize they do as well.

FireFox Browser
DuckDuckGo, Startpage Search
Multiple Email account options
Multiple documents options
Ecobee Thermostat
... I could go on.
Even if I tried using these alternatives at home, I still have to use google products for some programs at work, so what’s the point.

Brave is not a bad option. I think Firefox has really kicked it up a notch in the past year. I have Brave on my iPad.

You sound just like Establishment Republicans in DC. You don;t have to use Google in your personal life. They track everybody in this thread, including on this web site. There are tools to block most of it.
I just find it hypocritical to see people post complaining about Google removing Winston Churchill from search pics, then use their products everyday, giving them revenue to keep doing the same thing OVER and OVER. THAT IS THE POINT!

So do you ever look at YouTube?
Posted on 6/13/20 at 9:28 pm to The1TrueTiger
Look up. I have NoScript set to block YouTube Javasript and have to change the setting to view... so very little. And I/you can watch YouTube videos from within DuckDuckGo without actually going to YouTube. I suggest you use DuckDuckGo search, click on videos... then click "watch it here".
...I don't think i can insert a pic here to show you, so you'll have to take my word for it, or try it out.

Sent an email lately? Ever watched a YouTube video? Utilized a food delivery app? Does your car have built in GPS?
Congrats, you’ve used Google products
