Before you change your accounts over to your new email, use email aliases like anonaddy or simplelogin for your online accounts.
This is what I've done. I've literally just moved to Proton from Gmail. I created aliases for all my sites. The only site that knows about my Proton email address is SimpleLogin.
The only emails in Gmail now are from Google services tied to that Gmail account.
I used Bitwarden to help generate the aliases.
Does bitwarden offer an email alias service, or you just used it to generate the alias names?
No but you can use API's from various alias services so that Bitwarden can generate your aliases for you.
