Imho a decision that doesn’t make sense, Google already has paid for all the infrastructure so running the service to them is pure profit, not to mention the lost possibility to upsell Google workspace (paid gmail with a custom domain) or Google cloud services to all their customers.

Although I would never subscribe to something from Google for my business, then when they eventually change mind and kill my product, i have to migrate in an hurry. I’ve been hurted too many times

      Same here. The only problem with protonmail is that there is almost no option to use standard clients. For mail you have protonmail bridge which is pain in the ass but better than nothing. Calendar and storage is practically useless if you are not able to integrate it to the standard phone app or desktop client.
      But I understand that this is the price for encryption.
