Is there an inbox wrapper I can use for gmail on android? I know I know just switch to proton or whatever. I have, but sometimes I still get stuff from things I’ve connected to gmail that i I’ve forgotten about. The gmail app on android is very ad heavy. Just looking to access my gmail from a cleaner app.

Google using Gmail to target ads has been a thing since the launch, I remember the articles about it back in the day, and still got a Gmail since it was still soo much better than alternatives like Hotmail.

I like it for the storage, might encrypt my data on there to be safe. Honestly someone could make am app for that, but it wouldn’t make it onto the store 😮💨

Reminder that Immich has basically all the features of Google Photos and more, and you can migrate fairly easily by doing a Google Takeout. bigiron.cc/…/migrating-google-photos-to-immich-vi…

According to the article, it is off by default: According to Google’s updated privacy policy, the company still promises not to use Gmail, Drive, or Google Photos content for targeted advertising by default. However, the policy now includes an important exception. Google says that restriction no longer necessarily applies “unless you choose to make data from these services available to other Google services that support personalized ads.” The change is connected to Google’s Personal Intelligence features, which allow services like Search and Gemini to access information from connected apps to provide more relevant recommendations. For example, someone could give Google access to their Gmail inbox to help organize travel plans or find restaurant recommendations near a hotel reservation. Under the updated policy, information shared for those personalized experiences could also be used to determine which advertisements appear.

Remember when the entire selling point of Gmail was lots of storage and “no obtrusive ads like Yahoo Mail or Hotmail”? Pepperidge Farms remembers.
