I have been using Googles Gmail for way too long.
As a clueless teenager I fell into the Google trap early on. Google here google there.
Easy set up. Too easy for a purpose. There wasn't much alternatives you heard of back then. For me atleast.
By now, surely you must have noticed how much ads and notification you daily recieve ๐ค it slows down your phone so much. Google is mostly at fault. Reasons why people root their phones these days.
So therefore data gets eaten up like purple sweet potato fries for many years on all of our devices.
Not so yummy if you think about it. I want real sweet potatoes๐
Here a few steps to get out of Google, Facebook and Co. Go decentralised instead ane Claim back your privacy.
Gmail no more.
