    Google fucked around too long for me to consider using any of their new services and I’m working on dropping the old. Got bit in the ass with Allo, Hangouts, GPM, Inbox, and latestly Domains, which I thought was safe.

      Yeah getting dependent on any Google service is just a waiting game to handle catastrophe. That said I’ve yet to find a single semi-competent calendar widget in Android (month view most importantly) which keeps me. But as the legacy workspaces fiasco showed it’s only a matter of time until I’m forced to take action.

          When the workspaces-fiasco occurred I even signed up for Proton, but even as of today their only calendar widget is a glorified to-do-list for the current day. A shame really, I submitted feedback over a year ago for a widget with a monthly overview but alas. I get the feeling they’re very Google-like in that they pump out new features but hardly maintain/develop what’s already released.
