Everyone has their breaking points. The enshittification will continue until morale improves (by leaving Google).
The only Google properties I still use are YouTube and Scholar (occasionally).
Pirating youtube is pretty doable right now. There's invidious which is just a mirror then there's ytdlp for people who fuck with command lines. Or Stacher if you don't
I still use gmail and youtube. Trying to slowly get off gmail. It's been difficult as I don't have the time to sit down and look through what I need to transfer over. I've already got a NorthMail address, so at least that's a step.
I use Proton and can highly recommend. Others will recommend you alternatives, but one extra reason for Proton is they target actively gmail users and built a tool to make the switch easier: https://proton.me/blog/proton-mail-connect-gmail
I have gmail forwarding my email to my new account outside of Google. I have a "Gmail" folder on my non-Google account where all these forwarded emails get dropped.
I have been updating my email address on these forwarded emails for over a year. I've had this gmail address since gmail started so it's taking some time. It is a process but I am winning.
I also have everything forwarding to another account, with a rule to tag the ones sent to my gmail so that they're highlighted. It's a big task at first but just do a couple every now and then and eventually it'll be done.
