It really is hard to leave Gmail when all of your data has been conveniently stored therein. This is one of Google's retention strategies and it is indeed brilliant.

That said, there's a vast number of self-hosted alternatives like Stalwart Mail (email) [1], Immich (images) [2], NextCloud (Google Docs) [3], etc.

* [1] should be https://stalw.art

It's a neat project though, that I hadn't heard of before. I have ran Postfix to do domain-wide email forwarding (to Gmail coincidentally) but going the other way around and having the end destination be self hosted is on my to-do list.
