✅ Modern Productivity Features
Smart Compose: Automatic text prediction while typing emails.
Snooze Email: Can delay emails to read later.
Confidential Mode: Send emails with an expiration time & no forward/download options.
Gmail Cons
❌ Ads in Free Version
If you use the free version, there are sometimes ads based on user activity.
❌ Privacy & Data Usage
Google analyzes emails (especially for features like Smart Reply), which may be less popular with privacy-conscious users.
❌ 15GB Storage Limit (Including Drive & Photos)
If you often receive large attachments, your storage can fill up quickly, and you have to pay for more space.
❌ Less Optimal for Large Email Management
If you have thousands of emails that need to be managed with complex folders/labels, Gmail can feel less flexible than Outlook or Thunderbird.
Conclusion
🎯 Gmail is the best email service for most people, especially users of the Google ecosystem.
If you need higher security or are more privacy-conscious, maybe ProtonMail or Tutanota are better suited. But for everyday productivity, Gmail is still the champion! 📩🚀
