How do you transition away from an email you've used for everything?

I've had the same main email for years and it's attached to my entire online life at this point. I want to start using separate emails or aliases instead, but I'm realizing the easy part is changing how I sign up for new stuff it's all the old accounts that are the problem. There are probably sites I haven't logged into for years that still have my main email and I'm sure I've forgotten about half of them.

For people who actually moved away from an old main email, how did you do it without making a complete mess of everything? Did you slowly change accounts or is there a better way to approach it? I don't necessarily want to delete the old address either. I just want to reach a point where it's no longer the email I hand out everywhere, is it worth doing it manually?
