I was surprised at how difficult it was to make "Delete" a top-level, default UI option even in the latest iOS version of Mail.

It seemed interesting and novel when Gmail first launched and they encouraged archiving everything, but all these years later, mail clients are still engineered around this notion, even when they're not Gmail-only mail clients.

I like to delete emails, and for me, on iOS, that means I tend to use either Outlook or Spark (between iPhone and iPad), or.. ironically, Gmail for iOS, which allows for a one-swipe-action committed delete.

I've gotten pretty lazy about deleting emails. But, the space aside, GBs of random stuff do make it harder to search for older emails and docs, especially if you're not sure exactly what you're looking for.

The opposite problem also exists: I am a bit frustrated trying to archive mail in Yandex Mail on iOS, which actually pushes you to delete and hides archive behind a couple layers. Not sure why, to be honest.
