It is a pain in the arse to migrate.

It can be, but there are a few ways to make it more bearable.

Create a gmail account, and set it up to check your old yahoo mail so you don't miss anything. Set up a filter that sends out a canned response to the effect of "my address has changed to whatever@gmail.com, please update your address book" to anyone who sends email to your yahoo account. Gmail when then dutifully keep reminding your contacts to update your address, and the mails sent to your yahoo address will dwindle over time.
