I went through a similar change then found the Mac Outlook client and have been using it for months. I had forgotten how great a stand-alone email app is.

I had hated Windows outlook for so long, I forgot that client apps can be good.

Here’s what I like: 1) cmd+tab for quick switching between email and other stuff 2) faster search using local storage (although I think this could be done in browser) 3) Persistent login not affected by browser state/cookie/whatnot 4) Keyboard shortcuts not mixed into browser shortcuts 5) speed

I think 4-5 could theoretically be fixed eventually in a browser app. But every single native wrapper over browser has had so much bloat that I suspect it won’t happen.

I also really like the native Mac mail app, but can’t use it with some email accounts due to security settings.
