I've been a part of the google ecosystem for almost two decades now. I was originally given free access to their original gmail hosted domain way way back (in 03-05?) and I've been there ever since, watching it grow into the god awful thing it is today. Workspace is absolutely terrible for personal use, and has been for a while now. Unfortunately, being so deeply enmeshed, it's tough to break away.

Overall, I think I have everything I need set up between nextcloud and my host's email system. But the big remaining hurdle is how to handle the actual loss of the "google account". I've checked our accounts and they are no longer connected to other sites/services as the sole authentication, but I'm worried I'm still missing something. Yes, play store purchases will be lost, but that's mostly inconsequential anyway.

There is just that one big nagging sensation in the back of my head that I'm forgetting something. Are there any extra steps needed before I shut the whole thing down?
