Why would anyone use this over Proton Mail or the gazillion alternatives if it treats people like shit.
It sucks that Gmail is pretty much the best app that works with, well.. Gmail accounts. At least from what I’ve found. Especially with the 2FA thing where it asks you to press “yes” in Gmail after signing into Gmail from a different browser.
Why do people upvote this post, without reading comments that say its nothing new?
People like to be angry at Google. I mean, fair game, I dislike them a lot myself. But yeah, it's voicing "yeah I hate that too", would be my interpretation.
Gmail has been doing this for yeeeaars
I'd need to pay for them. I don't care about privacy on my Gmail account so I let it slide.
Edit: oh wait, Proton has a free-tier. Will check
Proton free tier is pretty decent, used it myself for a good few months.
I was helping my dad with some computer stuff and I noticed Microsoft outlook online (Hotmail) has ads as well.
My corporate outlook online doesn't have ads.
And my personal gsuite (paid for Gmail) doesn't have ads.
Oh my god, they're really going full enshittification now. Never thought I'd see them stoop this low.
It's restricted to specific inbox tabs. I now only use Inbox, Forums and Updates, and get no adds.
I use protonmail, so I don’t have to see shit like that.
Because of low digital literacy
