    Why not use the email from your internet provider?
    Gmail is the worst possible email, should be treated as a burner email. Gmail sells you account to everyone on the planet.

    That explains why my Gmail has hundreds of spam emails every time I check the account.
    Gmail is for those who don't know how to use the email provided by your internet provider.

    Unless you're trolling, using internet provider email is a boomer thing and not advisable

    Good luck migrating your email if you get a new ISP

    Not a problem and anytime I see Gmail, I know what level of knowledge I am dealing with.

    Been working in IT for 15 years. Literally everyone uses proton mail or gmail. There is zero reason to use your ISP email.

    That's an interesting response. Exactly the opposite of what IT experts tell me but interesting.
    Some people are so judgemental. You can tell just by looking at 'em.--Some random meme
