Use your own email client instead of their crappy web UI or app.

Perhaps ironically, the article itself is an ad.
To save anyone a click, it tells you to uncheck “promotions” and “social” in gmail settings. (I can tell you from personal experience that Google’s willingness to respect this setting is dodgy.)
It also suggests using a non-chromium browser with an adblocker.
This isn’t in the article, but obviously using an email client like Thunderbird might help.
It finishes by suggesting you to try Tuta™ Mail for free! Which, after reading this needlessly wordy article only to be hit with an ad, I’ve just decided I will never ever do.
