Migrate from Google / ChromeOS? (self.foss)

Hi, I have everything on Google these days. I'd quite like to get away from it to some extent at least. I can't see that's going to be easy, particularly on Android. But ChromeOS, Google drive and email seems like a good place to start, any suggestions or good guides?

Thanks!

Mozilla Firefox is my main browser, I definitely like it more than Chrome. It supports adblocking, doesn't hog RAM, and doesn't track your activity.

But it goes beyond that. Firefox lets you open tabs and specific domains in "containers" which cookies and login info don't cross. By default, Facebook is separated into its own thing.
