I feel like I (and probably a lot people now) don’t have a clue what most of their emails are. I don’t subscribe to anything anymore. I have no reason to routinely check it.

It’s just where receipts and account management messages (verification codes, click here to finish logging in type stuff), along with automated reminders of activities that have happened it need to happen. I haven’t checked email that wasn’t a log in thing for a very long time. And even then it was probably to check a record of some sort.

It used to be used as a primary communication protocol, now it’s just the account you need to have to make an account on what you’ll actually use.

Has anyone used it intentionally for anything more than that in the last 10 years? Personal email I mean, not for work email.

The moment the Cheeto was back in the WH the amount of spam I get has increased exponentially. The scammers know they have free reign.

I’m not, no.

But yes, hold them responsible for their crimes in all cases.

A point of pride that I have a 5 character email address with no numbers. A Gmail account I got with an invite back when… Invites.

Spamless. Granted, I have setup shell emails that forward to it etc. it’s well guarded.

I’m in that boat. Outlook’s reporting function died too.

My email has been spammed daily since the 90’s. It’s why I don’t really use email if I can avoid it.

Not lately. My gmails Spam sections mostly have legitimate marketing and news emails that idiots have apparently reported as spam instead of just unsubscribing from.
