    Get your own domain and use it for mail routing to whichever email service of your choice. Afaik gmail offers this, and so does probably any other decent email provider. That way if a provider turns to shit, you just need to set up with a different one, but don’t have to change any accounts.

    Downside: you will have to pay for that domain for the rest of your life (or change all accounts again)

    I’ve been meaning to do this for a while, maybe I’ll finally do it now.

      This is the route I took, and at 10 dollars per year or so to maintain a domain, this is a very cheap way to remove some of the hold big tech has over our lives.
