My father got online in his 60s in ~2000 for business reasons. Email, video-conference, banking, auctions, etc.
Today he gets confused every time Outlook or another provider changes its interface. He is losing control and making himself vulnerable to scams.
This! Thank you, this was the one thing I was never able to put into words.
Gmail's mobile changes irritated me enough to switch over to the barebones Samsung Email app on my phone. I'd suggest having your dad use an email client app to avoid disruptive UI changes on the email vendor's app.
