Trying really hard to mostly de-Google. Almost there.

How are you approaching de-googling? I am unable to think of a graceful solution to migrate my emails and photos while preserving their metadata.

Proton Mail has taken care of email for me. Their transfer process was extremely easy, and since I have my own domain and had already aliased an email to my previous one, I didn't need to change my email on my accounts.

Google Photos is still a thorn on my side. It's just too good to leave.

I've recently installed Immich and it's basically a drop in replacement for Google photos. You do need to host it yourself however.
