And since you won't be able to modify web pages, it will also mean the end of customization, either for looks (ie. DarkReader, Stylus), conveniance (ie. Tampermonkey) or accessibility.

The community feedback is... interesting to say the least.

What's a good Gmail alternative that has a relatively professional name? I have a hotmail account from way back still, but the name "hotmail.com" has always sounded silly to me. I guess there's Outlook but idk if they're the best option.

    Get your own domain. You'll actually have to pay for mail by then, but considering it's one of the services many people rely on a shitton it's not that bad to pay $10 towards it. It will also mean you can switch providers at any time without much hassle.

    That's really not an option for me right now financially since I need to keep costs down as much as possible. But I'll keep that in mind for the future.
