Is there a point in making yet another unified email client in 2023?

thinking about making a unified inbox. superhuman is amazing, but works with only one email + ux is way to basic (i understand that probably thats the purpose). what would you like to see in a unified inbox? and should I dare to make yet another one?

To my surprise I've been unable to find an email client that meets three requirements:

- Works on Windows and Android

- Unified inbox for multiple addresses

- Does not take multiple seconds to load an email

So I would happily welcome a new client in 2023

Awesome. No.3 is super critical. Cross Platform is tough if solo or bootstrapping. Thinking about a mac client for v 1. And then perhaps a cross platform if mac app is able to scale.
I made the two hundredth uptime monitoring service two years ago, there's always room for your unique perspective on solving a problem.
FYI - 2 days later this bit's been so much on my mind - "there's always room for your unique perspective on solving a problem" - strangely motivating. Will post an update here if I get it to something meaningful.
