Google services are present a lot in life because of the fast, convenient, and easy-to-access factors. However, when determined enough to say goodbye to the search giant, here are some alternatives for you: from texting, surfing, email, to text editing or maps.<\/p>\n

Surfing the web<\/b><\/p>\n

If you are a technology believer, you must have heard the saying: "Chrome is a RAM killer", implying that this browser consumes too much RAM on the computer. Don't use Chrome if your computer's RAM is too low.<\/p>\n

please try\u00a0Firefox<\/a>, another not-so-bad choice is equally famous as Chrome. Firefox's development team also claims that this product uses less computer resources than Chrome up to 30%.<\/p>\n

Next, don't forget to try more\u00a0Vivaldi<\/a>. This is a browser built on the Chromium project, combining the best features from Opera and Chrome.<\/p>\n

Search<\/b><\/p>\n

Why not choose\u00a0DuckDuckGo<\/a>?<\/p>\n

Google admits it uses information from users' habits and actions to help provide more accurate search results. In contrast, DuckDuckGo said it does not collect user data, does not introduce ads on search results.<\/p>\n

Besides, Ecosia.org is another popular search site in recent times. The search results page also shows the same paid ads as Google, but the revenue from that ad will be used to plant trees around the world.<\/p>\n

At the time this article was created, Ecosia shows that the number of trees planted from the search action was about 39 million.<\/p>\n

Gmail replacement?<\/b><\/p>\n

FastMail<\/a>\u00a0is an email service that is more than 15 years old. What helps them retain users is the speed and good looking interface on both phones and browsers, and features that are not very different from Gmail. However, you have to pay 3 \u2013 9 USD\/month to use.<\/p>\n

Other free options are Mail.com, GMX, Yandex, but admittedly for the free price, few email services can beat Gmail.<\/p>\n

Text editor<\/b><\/p>\n

WPS<\/a>\u00a0is the best candidate in this category. Although the features are not powerful, but with the free price and high compatibility with Microsoft Office or Google Docs, WPS is the choice of many users.<\/p>\n

Don't forget Vimeo<\/b><\/p>\n

Competitors on a par with YouTube up to this point are almost only\u00a0Vimeo<\/a>. Why? No ads, support for password setting for videos, a more aesthetic interface and a lot of videos with quality, academic content. The majority of Vimeo user communities are people working in the field of movies and art.<\/p>\n

Hosting Service<\/b><\/p>\n

Google Drive may offer more free storage than Dropbox (15GB vs 2GB), but Dropbox is one of the few companies that has received a 5-star certificate from the Electronic Frontier Foundation in protecting user information. . They are ready to notify you if the authorities want to intervene, see through your personal information.<\/p>\n

The article compares in detail the 2 viewing services\u00a0here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Map<\/b><\/p>\n

Maps.me<\/a>\u00a0is an open source phone map application with the highlight of being good directions even if the phone does not have an internet connection (provided that you have to download the country map to your device first).<\/p>\n

There are also other tools that are quite popular like OpenStreetMap or Here WeGo.<\/p>\n

Find pictures<\/b><\/p>\n

Unsplash.com<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0pexels.com<\/a>\u00a0may not bring up as many search results as Google, but nearly all of the photos on these two sites are free for you to use and in great shape.<\/p>\n
