Original Note:
Google announced via email and other methods that they are sunsetting the basic HTML version of Gmail. https://techcrunch.com/2023/09/25/google-is-killing-gmails-basic-html-view-in-2024/ However several users on X posted a screenshot of that email stating the entire Gmail service was fully shutting down. This is not the case. https://www.forbes.com/sites/antoniopequenoiv/2024/02/22/gmail-says-its-here-to-stay-after-sunsetting-hoax-circulates-on-x/amp/ https://gizmodo.com/no-google-isn-t-sunsetting-gmail-1851279685 https://9to5google.com/2024/02/22/no-gmail-is-not-sunsetting/
