Oh god no, please don't turn email into a "surface."

Quit. Gmail.
Why are so many technical users still on this gross platform that is turning the earliest, most successful decentralized internet protocol into a walled surveillance advertiser garden?
If you use gmail, go register a domain and point your MX records at an honest mail provider like Fastmail, Posteo, or Kolabnow. Or run your own mail server. This way your mail provider is hidden behind your domain and you can change it in the future if desired.
Seriously, stop reading hacker news for a second and make today the day you start migrating away from Google.
