"Plain HTML" gmail vs. any other version. It's way faster to navigate.
Remember when AJAX was supposed to make pages faster? LOL. Of course, back then we were just sending HTML to be injected, not JSON that has to be processed by 50+ Javascript functions before finally becoming HTML (or, some DOM entities, anyway).

Attaching a file to an email takes ages without drag and drop, this alone is worth waiting few more milliseconds to most people (Gmail loads in less than 2 seconds on my crappy hotel wifi)
- radiator 4y agoIt is not milliseconds on older devices and network is not always the bottleneck Most of the time you read e-mails, not write them. When you write e-mails, most of the time you don't need multiple attachments. The first attachment is reasonably fast to add.
