I haven't used it much if at all in the past year, but I finally took the last step and deleted it! Sorry if this is low effort I just don't have anyone I know to share it with.

if you switch to protonmail itll foward emails from your gmail to proton, then you can slowly move stuff over

You can probably (never used proton) set up a filter on the new address to mark or move stuff that was originally sent to gmail, too. Helps visualize the accounts you need to migrate/update.
