Why would anyone use this over Proton Mail or the gazillion alternatives if it treats people like shit.

That’s fair! :) I feel the same about the Gmail app, it’s not great, but it fits my purposes well enough. I saw the ads OP was talking about, I know I’ve seen them for years by this point, but I never really took notice because they’re so (in my humble opinion) discreet and not really noticeable.

Edit to add, hope you have a good day/night!
