Gmail sorts email by tab. Click the triple lines and you'll see Primary, Promotions, and Social. Basically Gmail didn't like the word spam, so they named the folder promotions.

Interesting, I've seen that on desktop and mobile app for nearly a decade.

Nevermind I found it under the "category" tab beneath the bin. I don't think I've ever clicked on that before. I just need Inbox/Sent/All Mail/Bin/Spam and my custom labels. Everything else is just clutter.

That's interesting, my labels and inbox, outbox etc are all underneath those

I believe you can choose to have those enabled or not. Edit: turns out this is exactly what the article tells you to do.
