Are we really using Google because it is better?

Hey guys.

I started to find Google searches a bit biased, not finding old news that I know I've already seen. Sometimes news that is trending in some countries related to my country does not appear, but when I go through other search engines it appears.

I think Google has an incredible ecosystem that integrates between Email (Gmail), Video (Youtube), Search Engine (Google), Office (Docs), Browser (Chrome), Adsense (Adds), Blogs (blogger)

But recently I started to value my privacy more and started discovering other very good services! Like Proton mail, DuckduckGo, OnlyOffice...
