The problem with Gmail is that it lacks basic cleanup tools such as sorting by size and you are forced to waste your time with tricks like larger:20mb.

- ahnick 7y agoHad no idea you could do that. Thanks!
- stvswn 7y agowhat's hard about that? When you are approaching your limit they give you a warning and link to this: https://support.google.com/mail/answer/6374270?hl=en https://support.google.com/mail/answer/6374270?hl=en
- ssully 7y agoThe bigger problem with GMail is that the mobile app has no controls to manage large amount of emails - not even a basic 'select all'. Which is hilarious, because Inbox was so good because it was easy to manage most of your email on your phone. Now my Gmail is overflowing because it's too difficult to archive thing I want, or delete what I don't in bulk. I actually have to log into the web interface to do any kind of clean up, which is something I never had to do with Inbox.
- ridiculous_fish 7y agoIt is possible to select more emails than are displayed; however operations such as deletion on large selections always fail.
- anoncake 7y agoJust use a proper desktop client. Gmail's IMAP implementation was pretty non-standard last time I checked but it should be good enough for this.
