I run uBlock origin on every device I can. I use PiHole on my home network. I've canceled every streaming service in favor of self-hosting, and IoT devices are blocked from the internet. Incoming connections are geoblocked. Meta is blocked at the DNS level. Suffice to say I have put a lot of effort into privacy and security.

I still can't get rid of Google, though, solely because of Gmail. I've had the same address for so many years (ever since the invite-only days), it would be an absolute nightmare to try to change it.

[-] Sanguine@lemmy.world 24 points 7 months ago

Forward gmail to new provider and then use new email from now on. Eventually you'll want to go in and update your email address for all the other sites you frequent..takes a few hours but you'll be free.

Did it last year and it was relatively easy.

Buy your own site and actually contrill your email. Like 20 a month and I have full control.

Nah, just get some email provider with a good reputation and setup gmail to forward all mail. From there you can start to change the emails in all your accounts one by one. And hey, even if takes you 5 years to complete, it's still worth it. Oh, some else had the exact same recommendation. I should have read the other comments first. Oh well

That's what i did. Took me ~8 months to have everything migrated over. But it's so worth it

[-] beefbot 3 points 7 months ago

This hurt to hear tbh. If there’s a solution, I hope you make it known
