I have completely stopped using google services and software on my personal devices (even have lineageos + microg on my phone. The problem is that I can’t just explain to the technically uneducated people that I changed mail providers. How should I go about doing this?

    Speaking as a nontech person, I can assure you that none of us care in the slightest.

    Just give us the new address and we’ll change it. We might curse you for making us do the work, but probably we’ll feel like badasses when we do it in only three hours.

      Ok, that isn’t a problem with family and friends, but for school or work, I would have to change my email on multiple services. Forwarding might work, but I couldn’t ever cut gmail off completely.
