I just switched over from Gmail, but I find myself missing Google's default email filters for "promotions", "forums", "social" and the like.

What have you all done to replicate this?

I literally never use that and don't understand why anyone would want to. All of the filters I create are created manually (other than spam). When it comes to those, Proton is leaps and bounds better, mostly because Gmail filter creation is just shockingly awful.

It helps that I try to get away from email as much as is humanly possible, in general. Anything that would fall in a "social" category I would expect to get via browser or app notifications, if at all.

Anything "promotional" would never make it into my inbox in the first place. Blogs and similar publications are subscribed to and read via RSS.

If a person asks for my email address I ask them to text me.

I use Proton Mail purely as an act of malicious compliance.
