NoMore!

I have the same issue. My workplace uses Google to store their documents which need to be accessed on a daily basis. I use Firefox for my personal web browsing and Brave for Google or work related stuff. Isolating Google/work stuff from my personal browsing has been working for me. I also use Thunderbird if I only need to open or send an email via Google. Brave has ad and telemetry blocking options and you can (for now) still use Ublock origin.

I haven’t played any Ys games but I’ll get around to starting them one day. I still play on my PSVITA so I can get them quite easily.

FerenOS is an Ubuntu based distro, kind of like a KDE Ubuntu Linux Mint. It’s having a new release next month.
