start using google drive to store your shit.

No, screw Google, they track everything that you do.  Make offline backups.

I hope you don't have an android phone, avoid using gmail, and utilize an alternative search engine as well then.

If you're that afraid of the Google Overlords, there are alternatives as well. I can tell you plenty of first hand experiences in both my professional and personal life where utilizing google drive has saved my ass.

I have an android phone, don't use any google products except for AOSP, and I use DuckDuckGo.
