Why would anyone use this over Proton Mail or the gazillion alternatives if it treats people like shit.
I suggest Tutanota or Protonmail.

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.

Oh my god, they're really going full enshittification now. Never thought I'd see them stoop this low.
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.

It's restricted to specific inbox tabs. I now only use Inbox, Forums and Updates, and get no adds.
Because of low digital literacy
I use protonmail, so I don’t have to see shit like that.
I believe this has been going on for a while now. It's one of the reasons why I switched over to Proton Mail.
