It's about time we try to de-google.

YouTube and my existing Gmail is the only thing tying me back. And the occasional Google maps. I don't even use the rest of their services anymore

              gmail you can forward all mail to another account.
Youtube, you could try following your subscriptions via RSS/ATOM feed reader. It's honestly just like regular YT but without the recommendation engine.

The point is not to use Gmail at all, and forwarding it isn't likely to help (this is in important places like work)

It's about the YouTube platform. For the most part I don't pay attention to the recommendations
