This may make me sound 100 years old but I think I'm growing partial to email clients. If I look at my emails in a separate program to my browser it stops me getting lost on the internet instead of doing what I'm trying to. It also means my email tab isn't taking up all this RAM.
And I really should cut Google out of my life. That will be easier if the interface I use for emails is the same, it doesn't matter what provider I'm using.
Also, I got sick of all the ads in Gmail's Promotions section. No ads in a client.
I switched from Gmail (and Nord VPN) to using the proton suite of tools. Much happier.
100 years old? I think it makes you sound ten. A being of a world colonised by google.
Also if you remember the ol'' netscape communicator suite try seamonkey. it's awesome
I'll check it out. Initial impressions are it's how we should be using the internet instead of being forced to use the same couple of websites for everything
It's the spiritual sucession to netscape...it's how we used to use the net. Has a built in html composer and everything
