Even more Google layoffs: This time it’s “significant” cuts to recruiting
Google plans to slow down hiring, and that means fewer recruiters.

Google has spent the past decade killing their brand. They’d launch new services, get people using them, then remove them with little notice.
Now they are ruining Chrome with their DRM initiatives, causing people to switch to Firefox.
Google search is getting really really bad to the point I’m having to use AI and alternative resources on some topics.
Waiting for them to ruin gmail next.
Why wait, just switch to Proton
Anything other than proton?
iCloud+ is a viable alternative
There's a few, but what's wrong with proton?
Tutanota is a lot better, proton is actually a masked honeypot
Google search is effcetievly hiding the internet from us. So many blogs where I know things by word I can't find anymore. Everything is only an Ad or the official website. I miss the days of GoogleGoogleGoogleGoogle.com.
That's one of the reasons I've worked diligently to remove Google from my life. Only Google branded service left is Maps (and Android if you count that). I really wish there was a map service bases on OSM with an as easily readable map UX as GMaps... OSM derived apps is usually too cluttered for anything where you need an overview in walkable cities.
Organic Maps?
Probably, it looks a bit better at first glance. I'll give it a try.
I've switched over to OSM+ recently.
The biggest issue with the app is that it's not the greatest at finding an address. But I found that if I find it and then go there, I can creat a custom market or favorite it, so OSM can now take me there in the future. It's cut out about 90 percent of Google maps. Still not perfect but it's been helping me out.
Osm maps address data is worthless. This dev https://github.com/pnoll1/osmand_map_creation/releases has osm maps you can download with adddress data in the maps. Also theres an app called addresstogps . Itll convert the address into gps coordinates and you can open it in any map. The only thing wrong with it however is, addresstogps uses google as a back end.
It's like an abusive relationship for me. I still use Google, convincing myself that their products are good and that they have my best interests in heart. Despite knowing it's not true and that my favorite services are bound to get killed or enshittifed.
