Well, that was interesting and curious. I clearly have no idea how anything works any more (not news, even to me). In an abundance of caution, I just changed my GMail password yet again, and two seconds later Dropbox said I was signed out. Maybe a coincidence but a) I've never been signed out of Dropbox like that before and b) the timing is a smoking gun.
It's all so creepy and invasive these days.

One great thing about Proton mail is that they managed to include a simple 'Trash' option on the notifications for new mail alongside 'Archive' and 'Mark read'. It's such a small thing, but it's massively useful and is a time saver -- so you don't need to open each new email to delete it. Maybe Google will add that functionality someday, but Gmail still doesn't have it.
EDIT: Gmail doesn't have it for ME? I'm hearing others might have it?…
