I've kept ads personalisation off, Google account history (including YouTube, Google, maps, etc) off for more than 2 years. Honestly, I couldn't have made a better decision!

Why do you think if you turn off on watch history on your app, Google isn't storing it in their database? They are of course storing every history and using it.

Maybe related, I’ve seen such bad UX but good for company profits or data calls being taken in this downturn on a lot of websites. If global economy was good, they wouldn’t care as much

Reels, Shorts Addiction

This is worse addiction than smoking, drinking. Haven't watched any short/reels for 5 days straight feeling like a void inside. But its better, Watching reels/shorts would give a feeling of satisfaction because of the dopamine release. So seeking other experiences for that dopamine hit. Life is getting better.

Delisting of 10 apps and the startups vs google

Now on this post just let me highlight few points as read from CCI vs google legal battle. 1. Google incentivize all the android manufacturere to not preload any app store(eg: thats why samsung store is laying like a undercontructed producted ). 2. To pre load any of google aap the OEM has to put all the apps that google want or esle play security wont pass. 3. You can not host any app which redirect to another app store or behave like app store on play store. As you can see how google used android , a "open source" eco system to force this google play billing system. Now android occupy 94% of user base here so its either on play store or you miss market. Sideloading is errered with crazy level of steps and warnings to prevent on play store app deployment. And as a bonus as google TnC say you can use 3rd party billing for "digital services" why is youtube still on play store it dont use google play billing system. Also google want the payment details of every transaction. Basically it want to study next profitable business to either buy it or clone it and with transaction details its much easier.
