With the number of people concerned about privacy, it is a wonder why chrome is even popular.

If you're able to, donate to Mozilla as well! Keeping them up and running is imperative.

Their VPN + Relay bundle is also pretty good if you want to monetarily support them while also getting something back. Relay is actually a killer product for keeping your inbox clean.

the phone functionality looks useful, though most of the email stuff is covered by using the + convention

your.email+trash@gmail.com -> this kinda doesn't make it anonymous but it either goes directly to trash or you can easily set up a filter in gmail so that emails sent to this address are automatically trashed

Yeah the key thing for me was anonymity. Plus I think most spammers know about the + feature now and will get around it. Currently degoogling my life by switching everything over to relay and having it forward to my Proton mail. Never had such a clean inbox before and it's amazing.
