Oh, cool, Gmail is straight-up showing ads (that aren't emails I received) in the Promotions tab.

@boredzo Google is Evil.

Run your own mail server.

@alexr Yeah, I'm not doing that. That's firmly in the category of “things I'd rather pay someone else to do”.

On a related note, I'm a longtime user of Fastmail and recommend it.

The main problem I have with switching to another provider is that I work with other folks who use Google Docs and/or Sheets, and the minute they have my Gmail address for that, they want to send emails and calendar invites to it, too. (With or without Google's encouragement.) I gave up that battle long ago.

@boredzo @alexr Paying someone or running your own isn't really the point for me. The point is having diversity and stop that MS/Google duopoly. And MS is even worse as they reject legitimate emails.
