Some are instant swapovers (search, browser, password storage, etc). Some take a small effort (email, calendar, online storage, etc). Some are difficult (YouTube, photo backup, google maps traffic info, Android). You donât have to change everything on one go. Start small, go slow and youâll be amazed how far you get in 6 months.
Anyone staying with Google canât be surprised by disappointment.
Anyone trusting Google enough to use more of their services or pick up their new offerings, is a masochist and deserves the disappointment.

Fair enough. Thank you for sharing a different experience.
You mentioned part of the issue; there are so many different services you donât think of obviously. Of course, thereâs mail, but thereâs also storage and phone backups, maps, social media logins, shared documents and folders, photos, etc.
Absolutely the best way to do it is a little bit at a time. Itâs definitely not a weekend project. But it is very rewarding and very much worth it.

And also âLogin with Googleâ which for many is a huge undertaking to migrate
