Walk away from it , seriously - step away from the rack.

I too had a homelab , it was used to learn , once I had learnt what I needed it got switched off and decommissioned , sold , given away .

Don't feel you need to keep it running just because

Meh you don't really lose your data , do you. I mean , we all know where it is.

Can't wait for "bring your lab to work day" 😉

The answer is no, but you're still gonna worry 😂

It would be nice to have full transparency on this element from Google , perhaps publish the data that's being shared between said apps , a weekly downloadable report would be fine to start to understand just what is being generated that needs to be anonymized, pseudonymized.

Amateur pfffff Where's the DVD reveal 😭😔 everybody knows thats the real find. WHAT'S IN THE TRAY!!

So then best way to approach this is to make a backup and then restore it. pst from outlook is easy can Google it costs nothing.

Just do the work yourself , why spend money on bit tantrum , aka boob Titian , aka brain torture, aka boulda dash, aka waste 'o time!!! Bit titan nothing more than an overlay for existing functionality - don't be wasting your monies folks. Be smart

Just stay away from oracle free tier pls
