Wait, what? What's horrendous about Gmail? It's one of the few sites that's predictable, gets out of my way, has a smooth workflow, and doesn't leave me shouting, "WTF? Why would you do that?"
The only issues I remember having are that sometimes label autocomplete is flaky and sometimes the new emails take too long to show up.[1] It has good support for vim-like keyboard shortcuts as well.
Don't want to sound like a shill, but I've found Gmail to be an outlier.
[1] There was also the April Fools "mic drop" feature where you could accidentally mute a conversation but I didn't experience that personally.
- heavyset_go 5y agoTry opening a few Gmail tabs on a machine that's more than a few years old or has a relatively low amount of memory. It might be an okay experience if opening Gmail is literally the only thing you're doing with the machine.
- SilasX 5y agoI’ve done that before, for working with multiple email accounts, and don’t remember it interfering with system memory needs. Although google has had a huge problem with keeping accounts separate in the same browser, but that’s not a gmail thing.
