Why would anyone use this over Proton Mail or the gazillion alternatives if it treats people like shit.

I have Yahoo mail. And it's just occasionally 1 ad email that's clearly labeled ad, not greyed out, and maybe a banner. I've had nothing too intrusive once it switched. But it gave me a monthly option. Idk, as much as I hate ads, it's not that bad.

I don't recall how many ads yahoomail has, but, it's in a spot that when you first open your inbox, it could be mistaken for an actual email.
