So one thing I've started getting worried about is whether youtube/google will eventually block/delete youtube/google accounts who use adblockers.
I don't really care about my youtube account but I have several gmail accounts and losing those would be awful.
I assume they won't ever go that far, but just the possibility is scary.
So is there an easy way to migrate all your stuff to some other email service and what are some good ones?
Use a dedicated account for YouTube. How will they remove your emails if they're on a separate account?
I use a YouTube channel account, which might be good enough. I've had one in the past banned and the rest of my Google account was left alone.
(I was only just getting into creating programs that communicate with online services and I hammered their API. My program didn't have any checks and balances to ensure it wouldn't go over it or to throttle back when the API endpoint attempts tell it to calm down. It only happened once but that was good enough to get it banned)
