I need a new browser; a new email service; and perhaps a messaging service. If anyone has some recommendations let me know.

There are not equivalent replacements for everything. That is how.monopolies are. We will have to replace where we can, sacrifice where we can, use minimally for necessity where we can't, until alternatives emerge.

I deleted Facebook a few years ago. The main connection I'd like to break is from WhatsApp. But thanks for digging up the info. Hopefully others make use of it.
