The world’s 3rd most popular domain registrar has been sold to Squarespace – but Google didn’t notify customers just yet. When could this happen, and why is Google silent?
I’m still in disbelief having heard this for the first time today.
This is so fucking annoying. I specifically used Google Domains so I can have a trivial email forwarding to my Gmail without data exiting Google’s servers.
I’m in the same boat you are, I had numerous domains (over a dozen) each with e-mail forwards to a single gmail account. I ended moving my domain registration to AWS Route 53 and pointing my DNS over to cloudflare. Cloudflare offers both DNS and e-mail forwarding for free, so I’m back in business. They also provide analytics on email forwarding that google lacked. not gonna miss google one bit.

Right but now CloudFlare reads all the email. 🥲
Have you got a good guide? I have about 8 domains with email 5 log-in’s for family. Really getting sick of google
