    Google fucked around too long for me to consider using any of their new services and I’m working on dropping the old. Got bit in the ass with Allo, Hangouts, GPM, Inbox, and latestly Domains, which I thought was safe.

      Yeah getting dependent on any Google service is just a waiting game to handle catastrophe. That said I’ve yet to find a single semi-competent calendar widget in Android (month view most importantly) which keeps me. But as the legacy workspaces fiasco showed it’s only a matter of time until I’m forced to take action.

        Have you tried Proton’s calender? I’ve relied solely on it since its beta a couple of years ago.

          When the workspaces-fiasco occurred I even signed up for Proton, but even as of today their only calendar widget is a glorified to-do-list for the current day. A shame really, I submitted feedback over a year ago for a widget with a monthly overview but alas. I get the feeling they’re very Google-like in that they pump out new features but hardly maintain/develop what’s already released.

          Well… hmm. Any suggestions on who to move too?

            I just moved mine to namecheap & am using cloudflare dns instead of Google cloud dns. Had to setup my email forwarding and my ssl certificate renewal again but otherwise rather painless.

            Namecheap’s website loads pretty slow but their support is top notch. The chat button on the page will immediately connect you to somebody that actually knows the product which is nice.
