Another Google's fallen angel here

Hello guys,

I'm "new" on this forum, as I decided to register after reading some post here before.

Google turned evil.

They recently rejected one of my websites from the Adsense program considering it has "poor quality" (a website running from 2006).

Alphabet also blackmailed to me through Youtube threating to close my account due to comments I posted. No free speech anymore.

Also they're blocking my access to Google Ads because I don't want to share my phone number.

Ok, Google. We're now enemies. I'm glad to decided to switch to Yandex, Swisscows, Protonmail and other services some years ago. I'm not your friend anymore.

I would look on new ways to continue making Internet without Google. That's why I'm here.

And this is my "introduction" here.

Cheers.

You've picked a battle you can't win

In the top5 cringest thing I've ever read.

I you can't accept the rules, don't play the game.

But other than that, welcome.

You always have been, you just did not know it.

Unfortunately the audience at Google has the last word. Go do your personal stuff at Yandex, browse on Brave and receive your emails on Proton but go back and make peace with big G.

I hope you don't intend to make money via SEO or you'll have to become friends with Google again.

Maybe. We're just numbers for them.

But it's my battle.

yes. I'm outside of the Google game. And my Internet experience jumped to a new level the day I started choosing other services.

Brave is amazing. Yandex is showing search results that are 2 feet under in Google.

Thank you Razharov.

I'm happy with my new Internet friends. I will never go back to the dark side.

Life after Google is just... Heaven.

Hopefully it is not too late to realize that.

I was Marketing/SEO Manager and Front-End Developer for 20 years. The only thing I learned is: SEO is rubbish and I wasted a lot of time working for Google. I earned a lot of traffic in my websites when I wasn't even know what "SEO" is.

Even as a customer: the Google's SERP is junk. Most of the Google products are useless and getting more demanding and wasting my time.

I found the peace the day I kicked Alphabet ouf of my life.
