I have some weird giant conglomeration of accounts all linked together that I don't know how to fix because in addition to the complaints I made upthread, Google's also terrible at usability and nobody understands how any of their shit works.
I think I have these accounts:
* Personal Gmail
* Professional Gmail
* Google+ account somehow auto-generated from personal Gmail even though I've never (on purpose, anyway) used Google+
* Google+ account somehow auto-generated from professional Gmail
* YouTube channel A
* YouTube channel B
* YouTube channel somehow auto-generated to match with my professional Gmail even though I've never to my knowledge used YouTube from that account at all?
* Some weird random Google+ page that seems to have come from nowhere for no reason, but it shows up anyway if I go into Google and click "my accounts". (Possibly generated by "logging into" Chrome, which I foolishly did once? Who knows.)
And I'm terrified to even try and fix the situation because I know a single wrong click and they'll delete all my YouTube videos, or all my emails. And, natch, there's ZERO customer support for this, but why would you expect that from Google.
I'd pay $50 to get all this shit fixed back to the way it was before Google fucked it all over in the first place. Seriously. I just want separate accounts for separate email addresses and separate YouTube channels. I never wanted them consolidated in the goddamned first place.
