I get the FOMO about having their own AI, but in my books making Drive usable and having a Linux app for drive would be way higher on the priority list. Get the basics right first.

How about notifications for the android mail app, for users without Google Services

Not disagreeing with you, but to me it seems they are clearly on the path of expanding their user base atm. This does fit perfectly in that strategy. Getting the basics right would be the morally better thing to do, but might not be the best way to grow their business which could actually be the right decision in the long run. I mean being in the news does get you a lot of new paying users.

But will they ever improve the basics? Cause it's been like five years

They should, definitely. But I am a consumer talking from the pov of a consumer so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Oh no, the MAGA company has disappointed the MAGAs. How are they going to burn this one in protest?
