    How Gmail dey crash ffs. Man you don’t realise how dependent you are on some apps until they have a server problem

    @questauthority The issue here is that there is no IP protection that covers cases like this. Like if someone built a Fortnite client from scratch that worked on Epic's servers, what is the infringement there? Or if I built an email service that looked like Gmail but worked totally different.

    Fang rec'd an email. - He printed it out on paper. - Then he sat down with a pen & pad of paper and wrote out his reply. Gave it to me to review. - Now he's off to type it into a Gmail response and send it back. It's from his daughter just updating him on mundane life stuff.

    @Clockwork_Bells @ReciRaider @Zuulzilla Basically have had the account since gmail started, signed up for too many things, problem got out if hand and I just can't tackle it at this point. And so the mountain grows, with a slow, tectonic inevitability.

    @GingCER @duffy_ma Very clear expectations about which info goes where: content questions asked on Canvas discussion board, class gmail that is monitored by me and TAs for logistics questions/problems with grades/tech problems, my email gets only questions where personal info is disclosed

    @Google @GoogleWorkspace My hangouts is down on my phone and gmail, I can't send any messages (input bar is gone). But I'm not seeing my previous messages in Google Chat. Is my account in migration or? What am I supposed to use?

    Does anyone know why gmail won’t let you download an attachment? I have someone trying to download the emote file I sent them and it’s not working. I’ve had this issue myself with sending myself jpg and png files as well.

    @armin_ravini @alyssa_falcone @MyGawdICant That was my issue. I want to see the full screen. There are extensions that allow you to alter text automatically and the extensions tab is conveniently hidden just off screen in the top right corner. You can also edit contact information on Gmail I'm pretty sure. (1/2)

    For those keeping track, I'm down 10,000 emails but still have to figure out how to reassess and organize my 1 million (maybe hyperbole) labels that transferred to Outlook from Gmail like 💩

    Kristen (@zoecharlucy) reported

    @gmail on my work email (uses gmail), since Fri, I can only attach one file at a time from Google Drive to an email. I used to hit “control” on keyboard and could select multiple attachments at a time. Chrome is up to date. How can I fix? Too time consuming to do one at a time.

    So today I’m in a post pandemic frame of mind. I guess it was getting the first Pfizer shot they got my mind thinking post. Anyway, I got my Gmail down from 14,600 unread to approximately 5000 unread and hundreds of unsubs for all the crap I subscribed to during the year. Go me!
