Buy a cheap domain from Gandi for 10 years. They provide free email and DNS. Use that email for anything you care about. Stop using your gmail account and forward your gmail to your domain's email account. Gradually, you'll switch your recovery emails to the domain that you own and control.
The other nice thing about this is you can be bob@domain.com rather than bob2746293@gmail.com and you can provide email accounts to your family and friends.
- dingaling 6y agoThat's still a SPOF though. Over the years I've had various letters from registrars and registries threatening my account due to missing information or new requirements. GANDI themselves once accused me of ToS violation because one account uses my initials ( as on my bank account ) instead of my forenames that they demanded. I migrated everything out of that account ASAP. Ideally you need two completely different domains ( to avoid potential trademark issues ) in two different TLDs at two registrars.
