I am moving away from Google also. But not because I don't want to pay. I have been paying Google for services for several years. I am moving away because Google services are lame.

For example Google Music was closed. Google moved my playlist to Google YouTube Music without keeping order of songs and loosing a lots of them in the process. Replacing my songs with completely different ones. I was paying for that "service" and got screwed by Google.

Another example is Google Photos. It does not have basic functionalities expected from a service to store photos. I can not easily organize my photos in folders because of whatever reason Google decided. But the thing that me decide is that after carefully choosing 1500 photos to move to a "separate" folder, it told me I can not move that many photos at once.

Google services are lame. I'd rather pay companies who care about my data and provide what I need.

See, simple HN comment, solid reasoning, no contradictions. No Google service installed anywhere. Is that so hard?

To a certain point I'd even agree. Google products often lack a certain love for details. Their apps sometimes feel like MVPs that aren't nice to use, which in turn leads to them abandoning them.
