Ask HN: Switching off of gmail

3 pointsmonochromatic2 comments

Google’s pervasive tracking has become disgusting enough that I’m thinking about ditching gmail, maybe in favor of protonmail.

Have you done this? How disruptive was it? Any advice?

I'm pretty happy with fastmail. You may want to read this before considering protonmail[1], note that it comes from their direct competitor (ah, and you need to enable dead comments in your hn settings if you haven't already)

I recommend investing in your own domain so that you can switch between e-mail providers easily.
