I never liked Gmail. I look at it like aol, yahoo, hotmail.
Instead Ive been on the Mail.com wave for several years. Just that I always have to clarify that the Email addresses arent Gmail, but just 'Mail' without the "G" says everything. People can get the fu#k out of here with their johnsmith474733827@gmail bullsh1t.

I also dig ProtonMail.

Most people never think about why and how there are so many "Free" Email services. Im not going to get into all of the details. Ads, your personal info and data are why though. I used to be a hardcore internet marketer and I'm not tech illiterate either, so I'm certain of that. Between that and it being difficult to have short, easy Email addresses on popular Email services are why I only rock with Mail.com and ProtonMail. Everything else can suck a fart out of a dead relatives ass.

Goodbye Gmail: Google will delete accounts that do not meet basic and mandatory requirement, pay attention
The Internet giant will clean up its servers, so we have to be attentive.

In recent days, Google announced the deletion of millions of email accounts. The popular search engine's messaging system arrived in 2004 under the name Gmail and was quickly adopted by users. Today, it is one of the most widely used email systems in the world.

A victim of its popularity, and with millions of new subscribers every year, the company is forced to delete little-used accounts, the vast majority of which were created for a single use and then fell into oblivion. This has raised concerns among the beneficiaries of the service, for fear of having their account deleted.

Goodbye Gmail: What kind of accounts will disappear?
With the intention of freeing up space on its servers, and to continue to strengthen the security of users, Google has taken this decision. Among the arguments is that of protection since, according to the company, an abandoned account is an easy target for fraudsters and hackers. Gmail accounts make up a large part of the spam we receive on a daily basis.

The second reason is because of space issues - for every inactive account that is deleted, the opportunity for a new one opens up.

The targeted accounts are those that have not been used for two years. So, if your account has been inactive for this period, it could be gone.

Goodbye Gmail: Google will delete accounts What do I do if my account was deleted?
The difference between email addresses and those of other services is that with Gmail you open many other tools linked to Google.

Creating a Gmail account is to offer yourself a multi-access key, with it you can access all the available tools: YouTube, Google Docs, Google Drive, Google Photos, etc.

If your email account is deleted, you will lose all related content with it.

Gmail: How can I prevent my account from being deleted?
The easiest way is to reactivate the use of it. To do this you have to go to your inbox and send an email so that the activity is renewed. One of these options may help:

1. Connecting to one of the applications with Gmail access (YouTube, etc.).
2. Connecting to Google with your account and searching on Google
3. Connecting to the PlayStore and downloading an application.
4. Go to your email and sign in or send messages
5. Log in to your inbox and access Google Drive

Its for duping sh1t like free trials where you gotta signup with an email addy
If you have a gmail address you can add a "." anywhere in the prefix & it will suffice as a new email
If ur addy was 🔗 you register with that
Then 🔗, then again with 🔗
Most recognize it as a different email addy Google however just puts em in the same inbox

The big loss here are gmail accounts tied to old YouTube videos. Curious to see what happens there.
Was unsure about this hack but I do remember reading something about this. But yeah, gmail sees it as a single email address (stripped of special characters) instead of unique addresses. Forgot whether they did this to combat malicious use.

The dot ‘hack’ might be better than the plus one, both have their own pro’s and con’s. + is when you put the plus sign after your gmail ID and include any random character(s).
🔗, unclejuju+boxden, unclejuju+b would all go to 🔗. Some sites are smart enough to not accept email accounts with plus signs in them.

And yeah, you can abuse it for free trials or to track what sites send you spam.

Like I was saying I rocked with mail.com mainly to dodge a lot of bullsh1t and compromises with short, easy Email addresses. They do roll out ads and other sh1t though. So looking for other alternatives is something I was doing the last few years. Then I became aware of ProtonMail. Hopefully no fu#kery starts happening with their Email service too.

I'm not about to make a bid deal about the color schemes of ProtonMail. That really is the only thing I'd prefer more options of, if I really nitpicked. It seems what they claim about their Email service is true though. Its not bloated with BS like others. And there are several different Email domain names to choose from too. I dig it and would recommend grabbing an account while it doesnt call for many compromises with what Email address you wanted, like usually is the case with other Email services.

that would cost them more money

its easier and cheaper for a company to just remove/delete your stuff

This

People crying about a company deleting an account you do not use
They own everything involved
They reserve the right to do what they want

Everybody’s a fu#king victim in 2023
