Do you care to share which search engine is superior to Google search then?
I suppose the other examples are subjective, but the numbers don't lie; more people seem to use them than not. I used Firefox since 0.6 days but finally switched to Chrome about a year and half before Quantum came out. Not bothering to switch back since I don't care for the new look of FF and there's no compelling reason to do so at this point - too little, too late.
What's better than Google Maps that's "free"?
I prefer Android OS in general, and the Google Pixel line specifically. I find the flexibility of what I can do with the device "superior" to the alternatives. The other major device is fine I'm sure; however, I've never owned one, so I'm basing that on its popularity. Perhaps they are a monopoly.
As for trackers & ads, I run with uBlock Origin and I use PIA and Incognito mode when I want to "go dark".
Bottom line is no one is forced to use Google products and it's not a monopoly.
No one is forced to use Google Search, use Google Chrome, buy an Android phone, use Google Maps, or use any other Google service; you are free to use Microsoft Bing, the Firefox browser, an iPhone or a Garmin GPS.
Google services don't ship on Microsoft Windows, Apple macOS, or the various flavors of Linux. People are "forced" to use Google products because they are superior - period.
This talk of Google being a "Monopoly" is B.S., plain and simple!
Factory reset you phone and stop side-loading shady/pirated apps and you'll be fine. I've never had an issue with malware on Android and I been using it for over five years now (N6).
In our house, three of us see the dress as white/gold, while two of us see blue/black. My parents saw the dress as blue/black. Colorblind Assistant sees basically soft brown/soft blue.
Interesting indeed.
I concur, I also run Shibby's Tomato-USB edition on an Asus RT-N66U. Do several speed tests to establish a baseline upload/download speed, enable QoS and set the download speed to 80-85% of you average download speed.
Sounds like you want a WD TV Live. It can mount NFS & SMB, and act as an SMB server as well, sharing any attached HD. It has played every downloaded video file I've thrown at it.

Talk about picking winners & losers. What happened to the "free market" working its magic?

Yeah, that's nice and all, but I hope they fix Google Play Music to use an HTML5 player before kicking Flash to the curb.

Talk about a bad day at the office. As an IT professional, I feel for the guy.
It's not in the default repos on Mint, I learned this was replaced by libav.

If I subscribed to DirecTV or U-verse TV will you push the Marshmallow OTA to my Nexus 6? It's only been 98 days so far!

Ditto for DOpus.
I didn't realize I'd been doing it wrong all these years.
I remap my CapsLock key to be a Control key; and RShift-CapsLock to invoke the original caps-lock function.
Hell Yeah! Can I swap my $h!ty W541 laptop out for one? God this laptop sux!

Notepad++ is my daily driver.
That's cute they think Ireland is outside jurisdiction of the NSA.
So much for that overbearing Federal Government meddling in our lives?
