I’m new to this idea and a Google girl so I’m interested in learning more. I’m not good with tech, but if it’s necessary I’ll do it as much as I can.

    I’d add to that great list also the problem of the steady enshittification of Google products. Just today, I was driving with Google Maps and suddenly it asked if I wanted to stop at a McDonald’s. I haven’t been to McD’s in twelve years, so you know how terribly useful that suggestion was.

      I find that Maps is one of the most difficult ones to get rid of. There are replacements of course, but they don’t change directions based on current traffic patterns. I also find that for these replacements the routing isn’t very good over medium/long distances.
