I have completely stopped using google services and software on my personal devices (even have lineageos + microg on my phone. The problem is that I can't just explain to the technically uneducated people that I changed mail providers. How should I go about doing this?

I mean it's not ideal but still better than email.

Signal is a non-profit that could go tits-up at any time and then suddenly we would have no more communication. Whereas Matrix is not dependent on the Matrix Foundation to function. It's just a protocol, much like email.

Yes, I agree that centralization isn't always a good idea.
