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

    I’m thinking the mobile users are in the worst spot for this. For desktop all this random spam goes into its own tab that I never look at.

    Alas, the spam in my “real” google inbox is all my fault. Shouldn’t have gave substack my email address.

      I’m a mobile user and our Gmail is separated into “Primary emails” which is the stuff we really want to see, and “promotions/ spam” which are all the advertisements. that is what OP took a screenshot of. The second one. I don’t know why he’s just seeing this for the first time and thinks that it’s something new. It’s been like this since the birth of gmail.
