I have my Gmail since beta invites so over 20 years. I'm dying with that account it's basically my Internet SSN at this point. It's also my real name so it's professional n shit. The idea of moving it would be a disaster.
This is a fight you need to have. I know is an inconvenience but small steps like buy a domain and start using with new services or people is a way to start
I have this idea to buy a .su domain and host my own email addy. I'm sure all the tools to do so exist on Linux but I haven't taken the time to really research it yet.
