This is the best summary I could come up with:
Losing your email address can be a nightmare, as it can feel almost impossible to chase down every service you've tied to your account.
A sign-off reads, "We look forward to continuing to serve you," so it's easy to assume that the service will keep running.
You only learn about the impending shutdown after scrolling down, clicking the small "migrate your data" link at the bottom of the page, and opening the first FAQ answer.
Burying the lede under all the self-congratulatory acquisition news makes Skiff users look like a disposable afterthought.
Publicly, the company is committed to users and privacy, but those VCs needed a return on their investment.
With Skiff, there will now presumably be an email service, putting Notion pretty close to Google Workspace or Office 365.
