Why are you overusing emojis? Anyways, its been nice feeling less tied to Google services since I switched away from Gmail and moving to another email provider, and moving to foss options for services I used to use Google for.

So having less dependency on Google, and not even having to sign into Google anymore to get benefit of subscription feed, playlists, and history has been cool through freetube on desktop and other third party apps like newpipe.

You are on lemmy which is a very niche more tech leaning social media that is more liking to degoogle. What is so bizzare about the concept of someone wanting to reduce their account dependency from a large corporate platform?
