Last I looked gmail was about 30%, "other" was about 30%, and the other 40% was divided up among a couple dozen things like outlook, hotmail, icloud, farcebook, and others. Yahoo and AOL have lost a lot over just the last year. The list will depend a lot on where you are and what mail you receive, of course. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software.

I just block script altogether. But I don't believe what it says. Outlook.com #1. I don't know anyone with outlook.com. It's possible that a lot of people have been assigned an outlook.com address who use MS Office, Visual Studio, or maybe even Windows 10. That's the kind of thing Microsoft would pull. Just as anyone who buys an Android phone gets a gmail address. That doesn't mean they use it, or even that they know what it is. I bought a new truck last year and the salesman set up a gmail address for me because he didn't know what mine was! Good luck for me. Nissan is sending their spam to that address so I don't have to see it. I have no idea what it even is. But it's counted as a gmail account. That list is also only freebie addresses. #2 and #3 are gmail and yahoo. So far, so good. #4 is inbox.com. I used to have an inbox account. They discontinued the free version. So it's definitely not #4. #5 is icloud. Again, anyone with a Mac or iPhone probably gets saddled with an icloud account. I don't know anyone who uses that service. I'm not sure it's realistic to figure this out. In my experience, gmail is by far the most popular. Most people no longer understand how to set up their ISP email. Over the years I've watched people I know move from things like charter or comcast to gmail. Always gmail. But it's a bit like asking what's the most common street name. The question is not relevant in any way that I can think of, so there's no reason for anyone to do a survey. And how would someone do such a survey? There's no official place where one needs to register email services, and every owned domain is potentially an email domain. |

My impression was that the gmail ID was to be used at the "Google app store", which is apparently unavoidable with Android. Is that not true? Or did you perhaps already have a gmail address, so you didn't notice? A quick search turns up pages like this: https://android.stackexchange.com/qu...rom-my-android The implication being that one may not have to have a gmail account, but that it's required for use of the "Android Market", and presumably that's required to get apps? So maybe a gmail account is set up as a courtesy when people don't already have one. After all, most people who willingly use Google products are likely to want the convenience of interconnected services. And if they don't? Then I guess it's like Windows 10: "Whaaaa?! You can certainly have privacy, so long as you don't want to use the computer's functionality. Whoever told you otherwise is a tinfoil-hat nutjob!" |
