So glad I ditched Gmail several months ago. I have a single Google Home device that was gifted to me by a friend, but I’m tempted to just unplug it at this point.

What are you using now? been aching to get off gmail for a while, just haven't found the right alternative that supports IMAP.

    If you have a hosted website, check your provider. I have my domain at Dreamhost and they have IMAP included at my tier.

    I moved off Gmail to them about 9 months ago and it's be good.

    The worst part is that Dreamhost's spam filtering is abysmal compared to Google's. But my desktop is always on and I just keep Thunderbird running on it. TB's spam filtering is pretty good after training.

    I figure some of the dedicated email hosting services do a better job with spam.
