Did not need to switch as I’ve been using my own domain names (French registrar with French and/or German hostings) since I created my first website… back when quite a few of you reading this today were not even born yet. No, that does not mean I’m that old. Absolutely not :p
I also have a proton and a tuta account (and @ mailbox.org one), just in case someone prefers a more privacy-friendly email than my non-encrypted domain emails, and since neither tuta or Proton are compatible when exchanging encrypted emails, I have both. That being said, I seldom use them: most people simply don’t care about privacy.
I use(d to use) gmail for all crappy online stuff I don’t care much about losing access to. I will probably end up getting rid of it entirely but, to me at least, even though I know it’s possible to do it without a YT account, that would also mean quit watching YT, which is something I still appreciate doing.
