Not defending gmail, but for them offering a gmail.com address is working out for many. Outside HN and tech, I doubt people care if their email suffix is `@gmai

Google Apps (or whatever they call it these days) is very affordable and gets many aspects of emails right. There are other well established alternatives too, like protonmail
- mjthompson 6y agoYeah, but suppose for argument's sake that your name is John Smith. I suspect pretty much every variant of that name is taken. So, unless you resort to an unreasonable suffix of digits, or a potentially unprofessional moniker, you've got no choices. Then again, email may not be a viable personal communication method in the future. Looks like the future is chat apps.
