You’re telling me you use email for anything other than spam? By all means, give an example. Personally, when I talk to friends or family, I never use their email address, I just add them to signal or get their phone number…

Work, school, 2FA, easy form of communication with small orgs and just general other stuff. Email is not useless but I do not have normal conversations with it if that’s what you mean.

Even 2FA, I mostly don’t use email anymore in favor of other more secure 2FA methods.
School, beats me, bit work is mostly chat based these days imo with slack. Granted, I do have email for invoices, but I was mostly talking about email as a communication tool, not a document management system. I’d be perfectly fine with sending people cloud links to Google drive if they accepted it.

Do you not have a job where you use email? Do you not get bank statements via email? Receipts? Updates from your HOA? Etc etc etc.

Job uses slack, rocketchat or discord. I have a work email that is so separate from personal email that it basically doesn’t count (because there’s no spam there.) HOA and Bank sends old fashioned mail, and also isn’t critical to me as I have websites for both. Receipts I wouldn’t really consider communication, but even then most receipts I save personally.
Seriously, email is kind of old fashioned and isn’t really used for communication between real people. You can see how most of what you’re talking about is effectively “documents” and not real communication right?
Most I use email for discussion in 2025 is mailing lists but those are usually for old phogey FOSS projects.
