The era of Google Now and Inbox was a golden era.
Going back to regular Gmail from Inbox was what finally broke my faith in Google and I was a proper fanboy too.
I have a very similar story. I was the most Google centric person I know in 2014 and 2015. I grew disillusioned after they killed Inbox. I realized that tech doesn't always get better with time. Sometimes the money motive leads to tech actively getting worse for users
It's years later and they still haven't incorporated inbox features into Gmail like they said they would and probably never will
There's no money behind it, partially because there's no real competition pushing them to provide a better experience. Plus, anything that saves time with email actually has a perverse financial disincentive. It means less time viewing the Promotions tab in Gmail. Inbox was the last gasp of innovation for its own sake at Google.
Well joke's on them as now I find my email experience so unbearable I barely open it at the cost of missing important stuff :p
I miss those features so much - I was also one who had the Googlillusion shattered by the discontinuation of Inbox.
Me waiting for Inbox features to be incorporated into Gmail:![](https://aussie.zone/pictrs/image/726255e2-1f0c-4901-b237-061d2c84e40f.jpeg)
