I get plenty of spam through Gmail, and there is no easy way to report it, it also doesn't seem like they are the least bit interested in tackling the problem.

I wish they took a closer look at themselves and also applied these kinds of rules to themselves.

If you mean coming to Gmail, three-dots > report spam.

If you mean coming from Gmail, https://support.google.com/mail/contact/abuse?hl=en.

I thought this button isn’t hooked up to anything

A contact form is too complicated for this. I think an abuse header with an address to forward the entire mail with headers should be standard.

I get >50% of my spam from legitimate hosts such as gmail and yahoo, which tick all the spf/dkim/dmark boxes.

spf/dkim/dmark helps with phishing/forgery, it does little to nothing for spam, even though this policy change makes it look like it's connected.

If I send spam through gmail, the spam is "authenticated".

spammers were among the first to implement these in an attempt to get higher score in spam filters. For quite a while dkim was positively correlated with spammyness for me.

Meanwhile.. does google even respond postmaster@ or abuse@ requests?
