For the lazy like myself

This video is about how to degoogle your life, czyli [in Polish] to minimize your reliance on Google products and services.

In the first part of the video, the speaker discusses why you might want to degoogle your life. They mention that Google collects a lot of data on its users, and that this data is used to target ads and to train machine learning algorithms. The speaker also argues that Google’s services are becoming less and less usable.

The speaker then provides a number of alternatives to Google products and services. Here are a few examples:

  • Search engines: DuckDuckGo, Startpage, Ecosia, Brave Search
  • Email: Proton, Tuta
  • Photo backup: Ente, Stingle, PhotoSync, Image
  • DNS: Quad9, NextDNS, Cloudflare

The speaker acknowledges that there are many other alternatives available, and that this is just a starting point. They also recommend checking out the sponsor of the video, Pulseway, which is a monitoring and management software.

The video ends with a call to action, encouraging viewers to watch part two of the series.

@sabreW4K3@lazysoci.al whoa thats neat! I often wish a YouTube video were just a blog post or forum thread … how can I do something like this myself?

I used Google Gemini. Just asked it to summarise and pasted the link and voila.

Oh the irony!
