I just signed up to Proton Mail & am changing over my email, calendar, setting up the VPN and migrating all my stuff to their cloud server. I've only just started the process and I'm exhausted already. I haven't even looked at the password manager yet to decide if I want to change to that or not. But storing my digital life in Switzerland instead of USA seems like a very good idea at the moment.

Google seems to be becoming a worse company, migrating away looks like a good idea.

Yeah, I've been contemplating it for a while, it's just taken the recent issues in US to give me enough push to actually act.
