ItsColourTV published a screenshot on Twitter following the Stadia announcement, revealing they have been playing Red Dead Online for 5,907 hours and asking Rockstar for the ability to transfer their account.

Uncertainty remains as to whether Rockstar has been pressured into making this an option, or whether it has been doing so since it learned Stadia was closing.

In the future, that will not be the case since the Phantom Liberty DLC will not be released until after Stadia has been shut down. The news that Red Dead Online players who use Stadia will not lose their progress is a welcome development for the community. The team has not had much to celebrate this year since Rockstar announced that the game would not receive any more major content updates.
