Had my account since the Gmail inception, before public signups. Definitely happened to me. Switched to Proton.
I have had mine for literal decades as well, and used it for so much stuff over the years it is hard to entirely ditch. However i have switched to proton some years ago as well and simply set up mail forwarding to my new account, in case anything important ever comes in over that gmail.
