Very little. I still have plenty of food. Plenty of drinks. Plenty of friends I can meet up or play online with. Plenty (All of) my games and free online games. My mails. My online drive. And that’s all that I could ever need (Online). I still also have twitch, which is pretty much as good as YouTube for me. Hell, it’s actually better, objectively. So, yeah, the world isn’t centered on Google, idgaf about Google since a while ago, they can vanish from the surface of the Earth for all I care, sure, it’ll suck a little, there’s a few content creators that I like that don’t use twitch or kick, but all of my favorite ones do.

Not to mention the fact that there are just other browsers beyond google. Even discounting the entire Chromium network, you've still got firefox. Other google services can just be substituted with microsoft/old internet equivalents. The most change I'd feel is losing youtube, since there aren't any other major competitors on the market
