It took a few months preparation but I deleted all my google accounts today, and it feels good.

I want to delete mine too, but I use GMail and I have not found a good alternative yet. Tutanota doesn't have Thunderbird support and ProtonMail has, but only on paid accounts. I really want to use Thunderbird because it is such a great email client.

I agree! Maybe with more research you'll find something that suits you. I personally use mailbox.org and I'm quite happy with it :)
