Gmail app unusable for basic functions

The Gmail app is pretty good in most ways. However, they recently changed the way the browser works to open all links in the in-app browser. This means if you get a password reset link (which is a very common use case), you can’t use your iCloud Keychain to suggest and save a new password. Of course, you can click a second time to open in actual Safari, but then your one-time-use password reset link has expired, since Gmail already loaded it. So in many cases, it has become impossible to reset passwords using the Gmail app, forcing me to get on my MacBook to do so. This means the Gmail app is quite useless, so I’ll be uninstalling and using Gmail in Safari instead. Way to ruin a perfectly good app Google. I’m sure some out-of-touch manager at Google insisted it work this way so they can push the Chrome app on users, but it’s anti-user. Google should be ashamed.
