    I work in ICT. Leaving Gmail is much easier said than done. It has the best spam filtering bar none and integrates with a whole host of other services that I use daily, like the mobile phone I’m writing this on for example, the one that integrates my calendar, tasks, contacts, photos, websites, YouTube channel, spreadsheets and, oh yeah … that other thing … Gmail.

    So, if wishing made it so.

    What I’d like is a Google Workspace tier that is entirely without AI.

      Proton is pretty good and covers IMO the most critical parts of the Google ecosystem. I made the move a couple of weeks ago and it has been pretty easy, honestly.

      I’ve left gmail and had no real challenges with spam filtering or anything else so far. I lost integration between calendar photos drive etc, which has removed some convenience, but that was also kind of the point.

        Yeah I keep hearing this argument, yet in real world deployments with just SPF checking, greylisting, and spamassassin my experience has been that it really isn’t much of an issue.
