Isn't Gmail a product? i think its pretty solid. Actually the best e-mail service out there, no?

Gmail ruined email because it used to be decentralised, but now everyone needs to be on Gmail so Gmail won't randomly discard their messages.
wow "Gmail ruined email" is a strong argument. Hard to agree with. Gmail revolutionized and democratized email.
I would've thought the democratised era was when there were 2000 providers and not when there were 2?
Well, it was a great product in 2005!
But it still great today, no? I mean professionally I am in the MS 365 world, which is definitely not better than gmail. We have some mail servers for services and until now we weren't able (for instance) to find an open source alternative to gmail and office 365.. any recommendation?
