Why would anyone use this over Proton Mail or the gazillion alternatives if it treats people like shit.

Wait until you see Yahoo mail.

Edit: Before you say nobody uses Yahoo mail, it's probably the 2nd most used after gmail at my school, afaik, I haven't met another person using protonmail.

That's the problem! If you're ready to adopt protonmail, but no one in your social group is, what to do with an empty inbox?

What are you talking about? ProtonMail is still a regular fully functional email provider. Nobody else has to use ProtonMail for you to receive the same emails you would on gmail.
