Would email be better if you couldn't send/receive emails from people with Gmail accounts?
It would objectively be more secure in terms of data privacy.
Better, in that regard, is subjective. It sure wouldn't be more convenient, but that's why we left Reddit and came to Lemmy in the first place. It sure wasn't because of convenience.

You can already block Gmail today from any other provider by putting a filter on incoming @gmail addresses. How does that make email more secure?
