Why?

That's all I really have to say about the matter.  No "normal" person will even use the 1GB of space and 2GB is just for shock value and to be used as an advertisement ploy.  This stupid email capacity race will hopefully end soon.  There's no need for and email service to have such large capacity.

Just wait, after 10 years I bet i'll have used 1Gig. If they really mean that we can keep every email we have, then they'd have to increase it eventually. This is assuming that the service is still around.

did u read it ?

Google first broke the e-mail mold on April 1, 2004, with an announcement so bizarre that many assumed it was an April Fool's Day joke.

:huh:h:

Oh I read it. I was also here last year when all the Gmail crap first came out. I wish I had known that 1GB of Spam and bull**** storage would excite every 12 year old with an internet connection.

thats totally your fault. People just dont imagine your email addy..... you probably put it somewhere that is spam prone and that started it.... + gmal does a good job of filtering em so its cool.

I am currently using

You are currently using 236 MB (23%) of your 1047 MB.

I use mine as an online briefcase of sorts. I used to use gmail drive, but I need to reinstall a new version and can't find it. Does anybody know the link!

I think that 2 GB is great.

Also, you can't create a massive online storage drive. It is against the terms of use.

    • Nearly 70% of Steam users now run Windows 11

      By NextGen_Gamer · Posted

      Along with that and very unfortunate for Linux, the AI boom/tariffs/global supply chain instability really destroyed any chances of it getting a decent chunk of market share. By all accounts, if a Steam Deck was still available for $399 (with tons of alternatives releasing at $500-$800 - instead of $1500+ now) and the Steam Machine was out there for $499, I think a lot of people WOULD have been willing to try SteamOS and switch away from Windows. But yeah, with the crazy jacked up prices now, people have to make safe bets with their money.

      Neowin hasn't been covering the Ladybird browser but it has been posted about on a lot of tech and Linux/open source sites. I have been following the effort myself for almost a year now. Cloudflare and Proton are among their sponsors. You can read the why here--> https://ladybird.org/#about

      That's really the user's problem, not the developers. It's not like the Windows 10 EOL was a surprise. Once a product goes out of support, you have to understand YOU are owning the risk of running it - the rest of the world will move on, maybe you'll be OK, maybe you'll be OK for a while, maybe you'll have an issue.... But you can't expect devs to write or certify software for dead operating systems.

      Not mentioned in this blog post is that Linux has now dropped for 2 months in a row. At a hight of 5.33% in March, then 4.52% in April and now 3.99% in May. I suspect the end of Windows 10 got a bunch of people to try Linux, fueled by all the Microsoft hate, and rabid social media push of that....and now they are going back to Windows 11 because of the normal Linux issues. The vast majority of PC gamers want to use their computers to game and not trouble shoot why a game wont work, or half work.
