Not sure why all the complexity. I just set my Gmail account to forward to an address on my self-hosted domain, and set it to delete after. Then I can check my “gmail” using standard IMAP on my own server (I also run RainLoop for a webmail interface). Sending mail back through Gmail is more complex, though, since Google put some protections on it to prevent spam. Since I don’t have to send from my Gmail account very often, I just log in to the web interface those rare times I need to do it.

You are not logged in. If you use a Fediverse account that is able to follow users, you can follow this user.
I’m doing the same thing. Trying to remember all the ones I used to follow before Google Reader was shut down (wish I had saved the list).
A few I‘ve added that I haven’t seen mentioned yet are: The Register (used to be theregister.co.uk but now it’s .com), Slashdot, Phoronix (for Linux stuff), ServeTheHome
You can use Thunderbird to copy your old messages from your Gmail account to your self-hosted IMAP.
