I would suggest Firefox or Tor for a browser and duckduckgo for searching if you want to ditch google. I can't help you with a YouTube alternative. That is the one google product I cannot do without.
Dailymotion and Vimeo are a couple of options. I hear about Bitchute...I think it's a torrent kind of site
LOL about Trumpists worried about companies tracking you.
Trump signed a law which allows ISPs to track you and sell your data without your permission. Doesn't matter whether you use the trackless browsers because the ISP has the info no matter which browser you use and doesn't matter if you are incognito.
Due to Trump, ISPs can sell your browsing history and the buyer can decide to place it on a public web site and you have no control over it. Trump sold you out. But you'll probably be happy with that and have some crazy explanation on why it's so great because Trump did it.
Trump Signs Measure to Let ISPs Sell Your Data Without Consent
President Donald Trump signed legislation Monday killing privacy rules that would have required internet service providers to get your explicit consent before they share or sell your web browsing history and other sensitive information.
Because big tech does big things. From googles abilities to find EXACTLY what I want, to reddit or other places having the best user experience.
And if I want to do some decent neural network work, Google has some of the easier to use development packages, and Amazon can provide me with some amazing on demand systems.
Basically because I like living in the future, using the best platforms. If you want some insane idea that you're going to bug these folks at all by using some entry level systems feel free. But they don't care at all, and the only person you hobble is yourself.

Their use for tech is not to move us forward or build things, their use for tech is to take us backwards and tear things down.
Sorry, I'm a huge google fan. I use a chromebook for daily surfing, have google home minis all over the house, even my tv is controlled from my chromebook or pixel phone. Google may be tracking my net surfing, but it also knows what I'm looking for based on my browsing history. But then again I'm boring so if someone is buying my data, then they aren't getting much.

Sorry, but reality is not the way you describe. They are there to make things, and make money. The only people trying to move us backwards and tear things down seems to be Republicans who feel that they are special snowflakes where rules about civility on corporate platforms are somehow a awful horrible thing.
Get over it. People dont want the vile nonsense that is Alex Jones, they dont want the hatred, and the threats of violence. And im not going to go hop on a platform that tolerates that. Its pretty bad already.
But if you folks feel you need to leave because the hate and threats arent tolerated? Go. And dont let the door hit you.

I was referring to the Alex Jones crowd. We are on the same side of this.

They may not be perfect, but I notice the ads I see now are the most generic ads ever. They have no idea who I am on the websites. Maybe the ISP could dig it up and that's another concern, but I have cut the daily annoyance down 99% by not being tracked by cookies.
