Is there a way to set reminders? It's the one feature from Gmail that I'm desperately missing.

When you set an event in the calander there is an option to use a notification. You can customize how far in advance to be notified.

That's not what I mean, should have phrased it better. I don't mean reminders for events, but for tasks. "Do the bins today" and then an option to mark it as done. I know I can technically do the same thing with events, but I'd like a more convenient way of doing it.

It's a common use case but probably a bit out of scope for the team at the moment. It's probably better to have a seperate "todo" type of app for that.

I'd pay my weight in gold for a clone of Google Keep from Proton.

I replaced this functionality with the todoist app. Hate having it separate but it was the best I could find.

When I enter something in my calendar from the phone app, there are 2 reminder set by default: a notification and a mail 15 minutes before the event start, and you can add more notification setting time and how (notification on the phone or email).

Same from the web, but to see/change them you need to go to the "More options..." dialog.
