Gmail vs. Hotmail 2023 Comparison

So what’s the difference between Gmail and Hotmail? Which of the two is better?

Well, that’s one of the easiest questions that we’ve answered on the Right Inbox blog…ever. It’s hands down Gmail. And why’s that? Well, Hotmail was rebranded as Outlook several years ago. Hotmail doesn’t exist as a provider any longer. So Gmail wins this one by default. That said, we wrote an in-depth comparison between Outlook and Gmail worth checking out. If you’re interested in Hotmail’s past and the rebrand, read on for a brief history.

The History of Hotmail

Launching in 1996, Hotmail was one of the earliest – and most popular – email service providers around. By 1997, it was already popular enough to sell to MSN and become part of their suite of tools for over $400 million. When Gmail was launched in 2004, it put a lot of pressure on both Hotmail and Yahoo since it had better features – and it was providing those features to users for free. In the end, Hotmail just couldn’t compete, and despite an update to Windows Live Hotmail in 2005, it was ultimately doomed. Microsoft launched Outlook in 2012, and all Hotmail users were allowed to upgrade to Outlook for free. At that point, they had the choice to either keep their original Hotmail address or get a new Outlook address. It was a good move for Microsoft. To this day, they are Gmail’s biggest competitor. We’re afraid not. While hotmail.com email addresses still exist for users who opted to keep them when Outlook took over, Hotmail is completely shut for new users.

Email Provider Comparisons

As we’ve covered in this post, Hotmail no longer exists as an email service provider, so it’s not possible to compare it to Gmail. However, we’re big fans of Gmail here at Right Inbox, so we’ve compared it to several other service providers on the blog in the past. If you want to check those out, you can do so by clicking on the links below.

So what makes Gmail so great? Why is it so loved by so many users?

Here are the top 4 reasons we love Gmail so much:

Storage – every single Gmail account comes with 15 GB of free storage. Not only is this very generous, but it’s also across Gmail, Google Drive, and images that are stored within Google Photos. Mobile App – when your average worker receives around 120 business emails a day, you need to make sure your mobile app is up to scratch. The solid UX of the Gmail app is designed to be a breeze to use and doesn’t keep you in the app for any longer than you need to be. Features – Gmail has always been head and shoulders above the competition with fantastic productivity features like labels, filters, and automation to keep you more productive every day. Extensions and add-ons – No matter what you want to achieve in your inbox, you can grab a Gmail extension for it. Whether you want to increase your productivity or see who opens your emails with Right Inbox, keep your writing in check with Grammarly or start a Zoom call, you can do so from right inside your inbox.

business-standard.com - YouTube Vanced to be discontinued 'due to legal threats' from Google

After facing a legal threat from Google, the popular Vanced app is being discontinued. The developers have confirmed that they have stopped all further development of the project, and Vanced has been officially discontinued. "Vanced has been discontinued. In the coming days, the download links on the website will be taken down. We know this is not something you wanted to hear but it's something we need to do. Thank you all for supporting us over the years," the brand said in a tweet. According to replies to the original tweet, the app will continue to work, so for those who already have it installed. However, the developers do note that there is a chance that it could stop working one day. Vanced is a modded version of the original app that allows users to block all video ads on without a premium subscription. Vanced also includes a true black theme, and customisations not offered in the official YouTube for Android app. Meanwhile, YouTube is bringing video transcriptions to its Android app. With this new feature, users do not need to be sitting in front of a computer to scroll through a script. Once it is live, they can click on the "Show Transcript" button found below a video's expanded description, sandwiched between any provided chapters and other suggested uploads from the channel. These transcript options appear pretty similar to what's been available on desktop for a while now but transposed to a mobile-friendly UI.
