I vote we get rid of it, just to put that out there.

I still want to talk on the phone and I probably wouldn’t if it was like corded landline days when you were constrained to wherever the cord would reach. Cordless was freeing, and I’ll never go back!

Really? Everyone who sees ads for sex lines has shown Google they have interest in sex lines?

Pandantic OP , 4 months ago (edited 4 months ago) to mildlyinfuriating in Looks at the ad in my Gmail

I use gmail a lot on my phone, and I have seen ads, but I’ve never seen an ad like that. My point was I was mildly irritated that it gave me a sex line ad. It made me feel angry for the trafficked sex workers probably running a majority of those lines. I generally would imagine Google to be more choosy about their adds. This ad felt icky, which mildly irritated me.

Suggestion for iOS?

Pandantic OP , 4 months ago to mildlyinfuriating in Looks at the ad in my Gmail

It would be clever if they fit and I might actually click on them.

Honestly, I did the whole “inbox filter tabs” thing a long time ago, and it was real useful before when I had a few spammy, usually “news letter” or “promotion” email that I might use. But at this point it’s just where the email I don’t really want but don’t want to deal with go to die.

I appreciate the info, though, and I’ve already turned it off, but I might just turn it back on because idgaf about the ads really since I barely look at that tab/section of my mail anyway. At his point, I’m prolly just going to go to proton mail for now and just update my email with my important contacts. I’ve been trying to get away from Google for a while, I just haven’t had the time to complete the transition on all services.

Pandantic OP , 4 months ago to mildlyinfuriating in Looks at the ad in my Gmail

Yep, I just looked it up and did that! Thanks!

Pandantic OP , 4 months ago to mildlyinfuriating in Looks at the ad in my Gmail

I definitely need to make that switch, and I’ve been “in the process” of making the switch for a while.

I will take your advice about Thunderbird because my work email is gmail only.

Pandantic OP , 4 months ago to mildlyinfuriating in Looks at the ad in my Gmail

Fair, it’s been a long while since I’ve unsubscribed from the spam I get. I mostly ignore it.

Pandantic OP , 4 months ago to mildlyinfuriating in Looks at the ad in my Gmail

Interestingly enough, no. I do like anime, though, so maybe they made that assumption.

Pandantic OP , 4 months ago to mildlyinfuriating in Looks at the ad in my Gmail

Same, for this reason.

When you flash your brights at someone because you think their brights are on (because they are too bright) and it’s their low beams and they flash you to show you they’re not a jerk, blinding you in the process.
