Why is gravity still described as a “force” when Einstein described it as the curvature of spacetime?

Gravity- it’s known as the “weakest fundamental force”, but we know the “attraction” is really just objects falling along the curvature of space toward a more massive object. I don’t understand how this explanation of gravity relates to the other fundamental forces.

newtonian gravity is sufficient in explaining most small scale phenomena we encounter every day.

It also probably doesn’t exist. Einstein is more right.
