Xaris posted:sorry but google is def gunna kill off IMAP/POP3 access at some point requiring use of GMAIL Suite android/ios apps, or desktop app which is just chrome bookmarked to gmail.com. hell they've already making it not easy so it's not a far step to see it completely gone. they definitely don't want you using anything but the webmail. well, duh. can't show ads over imap, so it's losing them money. gotta think about the bottom line.

when some random consumer starts seeing ads, they'll google why their adblocker isn't working and find a bunch of nerds advising them to switch to firefox. they'll do it and it'll solve their problem. i mean poo poo how do they think everyone started using chrome on pc anyway? it's so easy to switch browsers that giving people an obvious reason to change is a loving terrible idea

TheFluff posted:well, duh. can't show ads over imap, so it's losing them money. gotta think about the bottom line. you're thinking about this all wrong. Google dgaf about showing ads, sure accounting does, but the rank and file dont. They get promoted when they push out a new app. It why they made inbox then killed it, it why they'll make another mail app and kill that too. They'll even take whatever features inbox was good at, throw that in 'gmail' and still get promoted cause its new 'features'. They wont kill IMAP cause its not making them money, they'll kill it because they want you to use their stupid gmail chrome.app plugin so their team can get promoted. It's why they switched to Hangouts, then Allo, Meet and whatever is replacing hangouts.

I honestly wonder how this will play out for chrome if they go forward with it cause you’re right that is totally what the advice is going to be but I wonder if people are going to actually do it or just deal with the ads
