@veronica I've been trying to fight the habit and just call it "searching" and saying "use your search engine of choice" instead of "use Google". You'd think it'd be easier after dropping Google in 2019, but I think being tired of fighting the people still using Google hasn't helped.

Same here. I've told people to "go search it" and they've understood.
