At some point I gave up trying to organize my Gmail when I realized that 99% of my use of it is just opening it to get a sign-in code or check on a package or whatever. I send an email to an actual human with it maybe once a year. I don't check it unless I'm expecting something because there's almost zero chance something I care about will show up there when I'm not expecting it.

My personal email is almost entirely read-only, and nearly all its utility is letting computers, not people, send me messages that I'm expecting.
