OWA and GMail accounts.

I have an MSA associated with a Google Workspace account for a local non-profit I work with. Personally, I consider the GMail web application a crime against humanity, and would prefer to use the Outlook Web app. However, unlike my personal MSA which is linked to a 365 Family subscription, I am not presented with the option of adding a GMail account when using a non-premium account.

I can use the Mail app, but I prefer just using the web interface, especially for an account that I do not check all the time. I tried the “New” Outlook replacement for Mail, and was immediately sent an ad, so that is a non-starter. Once it permanently replaces Mail, I will lose that option.

One would think that Microsoft would forego the ads just to get access to the email data, but I guess not. Darn (not really the word I would choose, but community standards…), I really dislike the GMail interface.
