For my business mail I am still using Google.. was planning on migrating off that, someday.

Now I got an e-mail notifying me of a 54% price increase for Google Workspace.
Immediately got myself a @protonmail subscription and will be migrating today...

#ByeByeGoogle part 1

So I decided to get rid of Google wherever possible (without making my life unnecessarily miserable).

Step 1: email migration to #ProtonMail

Turns out this is a 💩load of work. Not the mail export/import, because Proton has a neat tool for that, but I need to update my contact email address for all services and websites where I have an account. And that's a lot.

Then there's another question: what emails to keep?

Motivation level: hide the pain Harold

#ByeByeGoogle part 2

Not much progress since my first post.

Two learnings:

  1. #ProtonMail let's you use (at)pm.me to shorten the email address.

  2. I hate it when websites don't let you change your contact email address.
