It's an extremely unpleasant surprise that they'd do it without offering any form of migration to personal gmail accounts. I've been waiting on a proper migration route for the past decade, with some unhappiness given Google Apps was originally marketed as suitable for personal or family use.

My phones, browser history, payments, purchases and more are tied to my GSuite account, and I can't leave without losing all of that. The fact that you apparently don't think we deserve to keep any of that stuff without paying a monthly tax forever doesn't fill me with joy.

Since they stopped offering new free accounts, which I have no problem with.

It’s the retroactive nature that pisses me off.

Put another way, Google has had a decade to build a migration path from the product they decided would be business only to their consumer product, but didn't.
