Honestly out of all those switches email is the one I’ve always struggled with. I feel like that one would take a ton of effort to switch over my accounts on various things to a new email. If anyone has any advice or ways to make that easier I’d love that as otherwise I’m still stuck with Gmail.
My main suggestion is to start, and to start earlier rather than later. If you have an email account you don’t like, every time you express that it’s associated with you means you’ll have to make one more update in order to completely switch.
I decided to switch around Black Friday when there was a discount for a paid subscription, and then to try to avoid using my old email account unless I saw a website reference it (like if I had to log in or specifically check for an email).
I feel a lot more comfortable using email than I used to (although I still try to avoid using it), so switching has improved my quality of life overall.
I got my own domain. It’s still a ton of work because you have to switch everything, but once you’ve done this you will be independent: if you dislike your current provider you can make a copy, switch providers and every account keeps working.
Now my old Gmail accounts redirect everything to my new email and this way I can switch whatever I forgot.
