    Oof, time to bite the bullet and switch email providers. Shit like this is why I’ve spent the last couple years de-googling my life.

      Do it! It’s not that bad. Everyone’s got different needs, but I switched to fastmail and have been enjoying it.

        If you’re making the switch anyway, get yourself a domain name from a separate company to run it through. That way in the future you can keep using your domain even if you switch mail/web-hosting providers.

          I have a domain and an email address through it, but my problem is I can’t find a domain name I like enough to both keep and give out to others as a long term contact point. The one I have right now is silly, and not easy to communicate over the phone.

          It’s a me problem, but if I ever figure out something I’m will to keep and is available, that’s the goal.

            Have two:
            The silly one for personal or non-professional stuff like Steam
            The professional one for the ones you are meeting irl.
