Have you ever deleted a google account before? Any Experiences? What should one know about this? Do you trust them to really delete everything?

    Deleted my google account about 10 years ago. No “experiences” to speak of, you just have to go in knowing that you’ll lose online access to everything Google: mail, calendar, youtube, etc. But that’s what Google Takeout is for.

    As for your last question: No, I don’t. Lack of trust is why is wiped my Google account in the first place.

        Nah, I’m no quick learner. In fact, it took Google screwing up multiple times before I decided to delete my account. I was just less tolerant to their mistakes than most people, I suppose.
