    Honestly, the only useful Google service these days is gmail. And that’s only because I don’t want to deal with changing providers after 15 years.

      I wish other providers had the tab system that Gmail has, I’d switch in a heartbeat if it did. Folders just aren’t as convenient.

      There’s gotta be an app for that, though that could ve dangerous since you’re letting it access your Gmail.

        Yeah, the issue is with going through every service you’ve used that you might use again and changing the email. That can take many hours, depending on how many sites you have an infrequent need to use.

          It took me about 6 months to de-gmail. Well worth it in the end. Im with paid protonmail now.

            You can ‘future proof’ your mail by using your own domain and use it with your proton account.
            So if you want or need to change your mail provider or self host in the future, you just need to redirect your domain to your new provider.
