X Mail is Elon Musk's proposal, the tycoon owner of X (old Twitter), to take on Gmail. It is an email manager that is not traditional since it is based on a kind of "plain text chat".
The idea was born a few months ago and has now gained momentum since Musk mentioned it again. However, there is no official launch date, but here we are going to tell you some details about how it works.Do you think it can surpass Google or Microsoft??
What is X Mail and how does it try to outdo Gmail?
The renowned Magnate Elon Musk is trying launch an email service called X Mail. It seeks to compete head-on with Gmail, but at the moment it is far from reaching it. However, the idea is to change the traditional approach to email a little and this platform aims to achieve this.
X Mail does not have a release date, but the proposal is that it will be a kind of chat with plain text. However, its operation is completely unknown and the little that is known has been from an xAI engineer who hinted at something in his comments.
He explained in his X account that he would like There is a plain text email service and it is directed to the inbox. Something very similar to what happens in direct messages and avoids the "annoying threads and formats found in traditional emails."
This can be interpreted as a son between X and Gmail to manage direct messages. In response to the engineer's message, Elon Musk responded with "that's exactly what we're going to do." The big question is, will it be a true competitor to Google and Microsoft?
It is not really known, although expectations indicate that not, at least not in the short or medium term. Gmail has more than 1.800 billion users worldwide and Outlook has around 400 million. X as a social network, although its figures for monthly active users are hidden, are estimated at 588 million.
One thing to keep in mind is that the current furor that Elon Musk is generating could lead to an interesting upsurge in X Mail, but it seems difficult to surpass Gmail or Outlook from there. It is a matter of waiting longer and seeing what this X service offers. Share the news so that more people know about the topic.
