***** Warning regarding AI contamination of #Google #Gmail search function *****
Google is changing the way message search works in Gmail, to use their defective AI systems to show you results in a way the AI thinks is best for you, meaning you could easily miss important messages when searching in Gmail when the AI screws up, which it will frequently do because it doesn't understand what your messages actually mean.
There will apparently be a way to switch to "Most recent" instead of "Most Relevant", but it will probably be on you to change this setting and I don't know at this time if this change will stick between sessions.
Google continues to ram their defective AI down people's throats.
Here are some #europeanAlternatives to #gmail.
Okay tech community.
I am looking for a new and free #Email server. My first email was yahoo - 30 years ago. I can’t remember what I used on ThunderBird.
I have been using gmail since it started, and I started trying to publish writing.
So, due to a multitude of illnesses, I am no longer tech savvy.
I need simple, and useable on the #Mac.
I have considered switching to Icloud, but don’t want that.
About six years ago, my writing #Gmail turned into a spam hub, so I had to switch to my junk email to use as my primary business email. I have never been able to get my writing gmail back to no, or even low, spam.
Google integriert Gemini-KI in Gmail: Neuer Button erkennt Termine in E-Mails und fügt sie dem Kalender hinzu. Praktisch, aber nicht ohne Risiken. #Gmail #KI https://winfuture.de/news,149484.html?utm_source=Mastodon&utm_medium=ManualStatus&utm_campaign=SocialMedia
It's been a week now. My Thunderbird on my Pixel phone is not fetching emails from my Gmail account anymore.
No problem on my Linux laptop, though.
Is anyone else experiencing the same?

How do people feel about #ProtonMail? I would like to get off gmail, mostly as a matter of principle, and the basic plan is $5/month *Canadian*, which is pretty cheap, but I'm curious what other people's experience has been. Specifically, have you had any trouble with their "bridge" app to using your own email client (NB: I'm on #Betterbird).
With the whole #ukpol on #e2ee forcing #apple to disable #adp and #usa going mad under #trump many seem to switch to #Signal over #WhatsApp.
But it seems still most people do not realize that if you use #Outlook, #Gmail, #Yahoo etc those very same governments have full access to everything that ever went through your mailbox.
Over at @privacyguides we have some good recommendations to switch to.
Have you already switched your Gmail to a new e-mail provider?
If no, what are you waiting for?
If yes, which one? Was it difficult to migrate? Do you like the design of your new providers interface? Do you find it easy to use? Are you happy with it?
Tell us more about your experience!
Die aktuelle Weltlage lässt mich überlegen, #gmail zu verlassen. Hat jemand Vorschläge die auch mit #Thunderbird out of the box funktionieren und keinen eigenen Client (wie Proton oder Tuta) erfordern?
First, they shut down the Basic HTML site, forcing many of us to switch to clients such as Thunderbird. Now, they're using qr codes which are not only inaccessible to the blind but also to those who don't use smartphones! This is ridiculous! Yes, they do still have the option to click whether it's you trying to sign in or not (which still requires a smartphone and a carrier, which they claim to be concerned about), but how long before they remove that, too?
I have seen article claiming that #Google is going to switch to requiring use of #QRcodes (which I loathe) in order to use #gmail, sometime in the not too distant future. The other email that I have used in the past gradually became useless in recent years (I suspect Gmail of blocking smaller mail servers) so I have just finished migrating everything to my gmail address, but it looks like I now need to migrate elsewhere.
Can people recommend a reliable email service?
Google has announced that Gmail will phase out SMS-based two-factor authentication (2FA) in favor of more secure methods. This change aims to enhance user security by reducing vulnerabilities associated with SMS codes, which can be intercepted. Users are encouraged to adopt alternatives like Google Authenticator or security keys for better protection.
#Google beendet SMS-Authentifizierung für #Gmail. Stattdessen: QR-Codes und Passkeys. Ziel: Erhöhte Sicherheit und weniger Phishing-Angriffe. Das ist ein längst überfälliger Schritt. https://winfuture.de/news,149071.html?utm_source=Mastodon&utm_medium=ManualStatus&utm_campaign=SocialMedia
HI, I am planning to have some of my emails in txt formats. I use native Gmail web app currently. I have all my emails in designated label. What email client is light-weight and would allow me to save my entire label as a folder with text files of emails in them? or is there any online tool that can access our inbox and do this stuff? #blind #screenReader #email #gmail
