I've replaced it with purelymail.com (not affiliated) - and I'm happy with that. Been with the service for about 4 months now. Yes, there is occasional spam, but fine with that. They offer calendar as well, works fine but I am not

"Google does not care about their users". Well.. I am not sure about that, but there is always the option of not using Google products, or using as few as possible Google products. - I've closed my G Suite legacy free edition

Not for me, but.. A honest question - now, when G suite legacy free edition is closing down, here's a chance to offer a service that's not "piggy-backing" on gmail (or any other provider). You could "re-create Inbox

If I may, one suggestion regarding the plastic frame - maybe work a bit on the quality and feel of the frame (unless pictures are of a prototype). I know it may not sound like a big deal, but I think that a good product presentation goes a

That zoom-able image is amazing. Sometimes we forget how big the universe is. And that's just an image of the Milky Way.

Same here - I only sign-up for services that are a "need" not a "want". If I implement a "Sign up with Google" feature - would you try the app? Thanks for checking!

I have not attempted to convince anyone to use the app so far :) Initially, I've built the app for personal use (and I am using it). And yes, it will cost a considerable amount of money to have the app live - for testing purposes. &quo
