Google has really shifted their “vibe”. The constant layoffs, deals with the Israeli military, shuttering daycare etc. They don’t seem to care anymore. While I didn’t care too much about all my email going to a google system Ive definitely been looking for an alternative lately.

Exactly.

I'm certain there's overwhelming retroactive support for IBM and IG Farben within Israel on the grounds that it was just business.

I'm just nit picking, but all your email on one end at least is probably going to end up to a google system anyway lol.

I think you should state your ideas more clearly. Are you saying there is an equivalence between Germany in WW2 and Israel? If not, what’s the point of your comment?

I shifted to Fastmail because people here tend to recommend it and I wanted less google in my life. Two things I didn’t expect was a better web UI and better spam filtering. On top of that I can write to human support and they are both responsive and seem knowledgeable.

Found the same with Zoho, and it's free. Used it because I didn't really care about the account and expected some shitty roundcube thing, but have been blown away. The app, website, and spam filtering absolutely crush what Gmail is offering.

It's your rhetorical reflected back, perhaps you should state your absolute position on the sanctity of business more clearly.

Why would infomation systems for tracking tattoos on not-Aryans in work and death camps be a problem?

Why would developing and selling Zyklon-B be a problem?

By your comment above, and I quote: "Why would taking on paying customers be a problem? It shows they are running a business".

Do you truly believe that making sales and profit is all that matters?
