    Yeah “fuck these guys for trying to save money by cleaning up stuff that hasn’t been used in years!”/s

    They’re just doing what any other company would do.

      If you could engage whatever functioning synapses you may possess, you might realize that this indicates that fewer people are using Google shit.

        Uh, no, it means that it’s been 20 years. People have made new accounts, moved organisations, gotten old, and just plain died.

        1.8 billion people have a Gmail account. One in five people - not email users, people. “Millions” of accounts being deleted is not even a significant number.

        Or people are just creating new accounts because they didn’t like the name of the old one, you bozo.
