This is why users don’t invest in the google ecosystem. No consistency or follow through.
I used to be all in with Google. After being burned over and over again, I’ve nearly entirely exited their ecosystem with some exceptions. I just don’t trust them anymore to maintain their products for the long haul.
I'd like to exit Google, but Gmail makes this oh so hard. I've been using Gmail since over 20 years, basically my life is on that service. How did you migrate off Gmail?
Just... export the emails and most systems will have a way to import old emails.
Hell for work I'm in the middle of migrating emails sent on a platform, logged on a secondary platform but stored on a third, to a fourth platform via CSV only.
There are ways to forwards all your emails into a new email address i think. Google it.
