    20 years on, I still prefer folders instead of labels. And I still don’t want messages group as “conversations.”

    It used to be free 1GB of mailbox storage that kept expanding for free. Now there is a hard limit unless you pay.

      Everything else wrong with Gmail and Google aside, those are the least reasonable complaints? You can use labels as folders. You can also disable conversation grouping, but I doubt you go more than a week before turning it back on.

      I don’t think anybody expected that to last forever. That said, the free limit is still way more than enough for most people. I’ve got 20 years of emails in my account, and I’m just barely past my free limit.

      Within a week you could tell there was a set maximum, the speed of increase steadily fell the higher the storage value got. It was a good marketing ploy, but there was never a “forever expanding” promise made.
