Didn't even know this was a service to begin with.
It was the main introduction to email for a lot of Australians, they've been using it as is for 15-20 years.
It's more than just one generation that uses it, I know people in their thirties who use theirs via the Gmail app as with any long-term email their is no need to change address.
I remember only signing up to Gmail because it felt new and techy.
Hey, that's why I set up a Gmail, too! Hahahaha
