This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I still have my gmail account from 2004 or so. I never delete anything, and it is where all the garbage mail goes, although I use it occasionally for purchases and other things.
So 22 years of email, never deleting anything, and I am well under 5gb.
You're lucky enough to have a non-common email address then and/or unsubscribe from tons of stuff? Mine is a common first name + 2 digits, and I've hit the limit a couple times.
i dont think i ever unsubscribe on that account, I don't pay much attention to it. common name? No not really so nobody is guess spamming it I suppose.
I think i have a ton of emails from places the no longer exist! I outlasted them!
Anyone old enough to remember that Gmail launched with "unlimited" storage?
They never did. You are thinking of photos.
But I do remember thinking 1gb and it growing over time was worth implementing GmailFS and using a free gmail account as a "get to it anywhere" file system I could mount on Linux.
Are there good services to intake all of my Google takeout data, or do I just collect it and wait
Ente Photos is pretty good
I'm addition to other recommendations, Immich is phenomenal for photos. What other data do you need to intake?
I purged all my email from google a while ago due to increasing privacy concerns.
Yeah but problem is, android forces you to have A Google account.
Graphene os solves this problem
NOOOO! im getting scammed out of my money. Im already paying $0/year and they have the AUDACITY to decrease my subscription benefits?????
