        If I’m gonna switch to Firefox, then I would be ditching Google entirely. Which means my email too, and I got a lot of online accounts tied to this Gmail account. So it would be very long and tedious to swap all of the online accounts I have to an email account that is not Google.

        Do you see why I do not want to switch?

            No, that’s not how it works.

            Personally, I’ve been stuck using Windows because I need to use Outlook. /s

          I access Gmail and other Google apps through Firefox every day. They work great. You don’t need Chrome to use Google apps.

          Just use Thunderbird for your mails. In the last two years I did the switch from Gmail to a paid German Mail Provider. It takes some work but it’s possible. Google reads all your mails and if I am remembering correctly even third parties are allowed to read some mails. Now gmail is my new spam address :D
