GMail's mark as spam feature has become "report spam". Meaning, you just report something as spam to Google. They decide what it actually is.
And indeed, it works perfectly. I've marked Twitter/Facebook/Amazon/Freelancer/YouTube as spam and they always come back to the Inbox.
- bawolff 5y agoOr you know you could just undubscribe from those. Its not like major tech companies are ignoring unsubscribe requests.
- bserge 5y agoYeah, so every unsubscribe link I tried led to a page that's convoluted (likely on purpose, like GDPR cookies) and it was hard to actually unsubscribe. That was quite a while ago tbf. Since then, I just mark everything as spam. I just tried to unsubscribe from Twitter and... I need to login to my account. That I never used. To unsubscribe to spam I never signed up for (Twitter did not send these kinds of "come back" emails before). Also Gmail for Android doesn't let me search through specific folders anymore. It's just "Search in mail". Idiocracy.

- jerrygoyal 5y agothere's an option to "Block" instead.. works perfectly.
