    There are alternatives to Gmail. I’d probably list out such services as Yahoo/AOL (I personally use the AT&T branded version of this service) and Hotmail (now known as Outlook.​com), but instead I’ll just tell you that you can enter a query like “free email provider” in your web search provider of choice and find several perfectly viable options. NOTE: whoever downvoted this needs to learn how to read and to understand that the comment I’m replying to is asking for “the equal of […] Gmail” which does NOT mean a “good email provider”. these options are selected to be corporate and abusive, much like Gmail.

      Those are all awful, none of the corporate tech companies are better they are all garbage. If they force you to give them a phone number, they do not deserve your business.

        you do realize he was asking for something “the equal of […] Gmail”, not a good email provider like disroot.org? if you didn’t and assumed he was asking for a good email provider based on the other replies… then I’m surprised at you
