All other paid mail options are better, such as protonmail etc. It's just too expensive for me though. So I use GMail. Google can beat competition with storage space, integration and infinite money from Google cash cow etc. But the products are crap and I concur with the other person who commented on it that it's just another Google product to show ads and track me.

What do you find in other services that you think is better? Like proton-mail vs gmail.

It works very well, no downsides, apart the fact I need to pay. I'm not the product.

Gmail web almost eat all my memory and is kind of shitty and not snappy at all. I think even office 365 looks better atm. I don't know what happened to google, but it's probably something really wrong. Maybe it got too big that nobody cares anymore?
