I wasn't using it for much so I just took it as a warning I should get off my ass and de google.

... which hasn't happened, but maybe once every 3 months I move another service to logging in with an email on my personal domain ...

I recently ran into a situation where a service I absolutely must use and has no alternative (think government provided service) would only accept a Gmail domain for registration. Any other domain would fail registration with no useful error message.

This really shouldn't be allowed in this day and age but I'm effectively powerless to change it. DeGoogling is hard.
