I have been using gmail for quite long time. It is getting ridiculously terrible these days (in the past couple of years I guess!)
My old laptop fans go crazy when I launch chrome. It’s too much heavy for a mail client.
It’s remarkable how we suck at writing software in the past years.

- ClumsyPilot 7y agoI haven't used webmail ui in years, and couldn't be happier. All native application deliver far superior experience, are more performance work offline etc.
- copperx 7y agoIf only IMAP worked decently in Gmail.
- wkey 7y agoI will have one browser window open, but in my task manager will have like 17 concurrent chrome processes running, slowing things down so much. I understand there are certain things running in the background but it is extremely hard to close out of certain tasks and stop plugins without terminating my entire browsing session.
