The difference between the two security features is that Safe Browsing will compare a visited site to a locally stored list of domains, compared to Enhanced Safe Browser, which will check if a site is malicious in real-time against Google's cloud services.
While it may seem like Enhanced Safe Browsing is the better way to go, there is a slight trade-off in privacy, as Chrome and Gmail will share URLs with Google to check if they are malicious and temporarily associate this information with your signed-in Google account.
Articles like this are now almost daily reminders to seek new tools. I've been using Gmail since 2004 back when it was by invite. I hate to jump ship now, but goodness, I'm questioning continuing to give Google my money.
I moved my custom domain this past weekend because Google sent me a notice that my pricing was about to double to $18/month for 3 email addresses. I’m s absurd and I’m still pissed they rugged pulled us on the custom domains after many years of using their services. They kept adding “value added features” that I don’t care about to justify their pricing and all I wanted was email. Takeout.google.com to download your mailboxes.
Same here. Also now paying for Workspace but have been meaning to look into alternatives. One downside is there's nothing really offering 5 TB of cloud storage for a similar price.
The old gmail interface has no ads, no nags, and loads a helluva lot faster. It's accessed through the link in the far bottom right while the interface is loading. Might take a few tries to hit it.
Since a few days, lots of German users (and others?) are having problems syncing their third party email accounts with Gmail on Android.
When this started happening to me, i switched over to k-9 mail.
With news like that I'm happy I made the switch. Will either stay with k-9 or check out fairmail next, but won't be going back to Gmail even if it starts working again.
