but gmail is good. and we like it.

being corporate != departure from quality.

its not really fair to say that the burden rests on hackers and startup founders to promote/use small providers. small providers also have a responsibility to innovate and compete to provide superior products. It is the responsibility of end users to choose the application that suits their needs best.

If small providers aren't competitive with gMail, then gMail will maintain its large marketshare and continue to receive attention from its users.

Choosing a service because it fits your needs is fine, but in the case of Gmail every trivial detail is posted as a new story.

I'm running my own innovative, superior, competitive, streamlined combination of qmail+mutt, so forgive me if I find posts about free Gmail stickers slightly obtuse.
