Maybe the way to fight GMail's outsized power is to stop using GMail. You can do that without going all the way to self-hosting.

    Stopping your own gmail use is trivially easy. It just scratches the surface. In order to not lick Google’s boots, you also need to stop sending email to gmail users. That means doing an MX lookup before emailing to see if their vanity email address is on a Gmail host. And of course this also means not sharing an email address with gmail users.

    I do that, in fact. I also boycott Microsoft. In the end, this means I am not using email much at all.
