Really, anxiety? Use a native/local mail client and I'm sure it will solve your problems.

Yeah I'm kinda OCD about my email.
Thanks, just found the HN thread about email clients. Checking out Airmail now.
Perhaps the anxiety is because there was a change, and not specifically this change?
I started using eM Client as a native desktop email app because of the new gMail reply feature. Feature-wise it does everything I expect/want for email.
It drives me absolutely insane when a company makes an 'enhancement' and reduces usable window space. If I am writing a long email I want to be able to use the maximum amount of window space and not be crammed into something that is 25% of my monitor size.
Link to the HN thread with email clients?

The problem with that suggestion is that the old Gmail used to have the best UX out of all email clients—web or desktop. I preferred it over Outlook or Thunderbird. Now I'm begrudgingly using it unti something better comes along and hoping Google doesn't acqui-hire them out of existence.
