Are there any good guides for switching from gmail to Tuta/Proton/Start/etc?

I am also interested, but my ancient gmail account annoyingly still gets lots of important stuff and I would be interested how easy or complicated is to redirect emails or exporting contacts for example.

edit: thanks for the suggestion! I will definetly switch now. Just need to decide between Proton and Tuta :D

+1 on the do it slowly, I've also taken it as an opportunity to sort the emails coming in; unsubscribe what I no longer wish to receive and changing my adress on the (automated) emails i do want to get. Changing login credentials has been a bit of a hassle but I'm using a password managet which does make it a lot easier to 'remember' logins. The process is easier than I expected, but maybe because it's not taking much time each week. Almost all personal mail still goes to my old address, so still have to cross that bridge though.
