Yep, pretty much. It used to be doable, but these days it’s very difficult. It’s certainly not impossible, but one slipup and you could get on the deny list forever. It’s just not worth it, since emails are usually pretty mission critical, imo.
It should be noted that email servers, no matter the setup, require you to follow strict standards to achieve proper delivery. It’s very easy to get blacklisted, and it’s next to impossible to get off of said blacklist once you’re on it.
I used to host my own mail server with this, but it got to be too much to get my emails to actually send. I was always wondering if my email was actually delivered or if it was silently bounced or sent to spam. Email is the only thing I’m not willing to self host.
Both Proton and Tuta have almost all of those except for maps. For maps, just use Organic Maps or OsmAnd.
I use all of mine separately anyway, because I care about my privacy and it works better. Google products have become so enshittified and bloated that most alternatives are faster at this point.

There is no way the storage medium survived all of that time in a dump. If it made it that far, it’s probably crushed, turned to rust, or both. It’s a lost cause.
You can build a simple bed presence sensor using one of those pressure mats used to hook up to alarms in nursing homes and a water/leak detector (I use the aqara detector for this). You just have to strip off the end of the cable from the mat, find the wires that do the circuit inside of the mat (I just used the leak sensor to find them) and wire it up to the sensor. Boom, bed presence sensor! Of course, this doesn’t track your sleep directly.
