I would like to keep using as many Google services as possible. And I also need to keep my custom email.

As of now it seems we have two options regarding our G Suite legacy account: 1) choose a paid plan and keep everything (including our current custom email address on Google servers) or 2) Do nothing by July 1st and lose access your Google Workspace core services and data, including Gmail, Calendar, Drive, and Meet.

A third option would be (1) delete our G Suite legacy account; (2) get a new email server (same email address) and (3) create a Google Workspace Essentials Starter that would have all services but Gmail.

It doesn't make sense to me that Google as of now will not allow users to migrate from legacy subscriptions to Essentials Starter according to this reply on Twitter: https://mobile.twitter.com/AskWorkspace/status/1489469620985...

I also don't think they would allow a former domain registered on Google Workspace to create a Essential Starter subscription -- I read something regarding that but can't find it...
