Also it's easy to talk shit for using Gmail but they probably don't have much of a choice when half their customers will also use Gmail anyways and their self hosted emails will fall in their spam. Otherwise it's trivial to use a different provider and not much harder to self host.

I disagree with this view. It’s actually very easy to self-host. Email us at support [at] our domain .com With a server like Mullvad’s, they can basically host for free in a docker container. And the spam issue is easy to solve with proper DNS entries which can be learned in a day, then tested using spam testing websites.
If you think dealing with spam flaging issues with self-hosted email is "easy to solve with propper DNS config", then you've either never actually tried or sent that much email from it.
