I mean this would be insane. Gmail is probably the most used email service in the world, and even though I'm not a Google fanboy, it's also probably the best.

What are people gonna use? Outlook? Fuck that. I only use that piece of trash because of my job.

Yeah a random website on a DDG search (ironically) that I just did said that Gmail has 30% of the email marketshare, which I'd definitely believe. It would be a HUGE shakeup and very disruptive if they were to stop it.

gmail has a fine website but email is a commodity service, hundreds of replacements exist and could be used.
