Reality is everyone has an email, and everyone will keep having an email. My 10 year old has an email so they could sign up to epic and steam. You basically need it to use the internet at all. So of course it will survive.
Outside of business though, when was the last time you sent an email to someone you know?
I feel like that’s what email should be. More than texting, less frequent than chats, record keeping, quick little updates on life, etc.
Texts are for either unimportant things or emergencies, an email is like a news report after things are stable or a state of the family update. You send it out when the details are worked out so it’s easy to reference. I hate when family plans happen in emails, I don’t want emails between 10 family members and their responses to how we’re going to eat at Grandma’s. Text me, then when we decide how we’re gonna do it send an email with the final decisions to everyone.

My mother uses email for nearly everything. I’m 31 now, but in high school she’d email me from the basement that dinner is ready.
Just last month I received this… we chat on WhatsApp and phone calls regularly as well.
That’s cute. She treats it like writing letters or maybe postcards given the length of the message.

I forwarded tickets to my wife. But for “normal” communication I emailed the city about a citation they gave me for my yard.
My ex emailed me from a new account when he thought I’d blocked him everywhere else. I hadn’t, but I did after that!
