@mgorny@social.treehouse.systemsWhile helping my mum with something recently, I've noticed that her #GMail started featuring a banner that she ran out of space, and mails will stop arriving in less than a month. As expected, she never even noticed it. On the other hand, I had two thoughts about it.
Firstly, of course, #Google are shameless assholes (Microsoft's even worse, as I boosted at some point before). Mom's new phone came with Google Photos preinstalled in place of vendor's gallery, and of course it automatically started making backups of her photos and movies in the "cloud", or as I'd like to call it, to pedophiles. The photos finally filled up the free space, and Google started doing everything to convince her to buy more space. I honestly doubt she'd be able to figure out that she needed to turn these backups off and wipe them; if anything, I suspect she'd just start hopelessly removing photos from the phone, which might not have helped at all.
Secondly, it's that if such a thing happened to me, I probably wouldn't even know, because I'm reading my mail via a mail client. So I wouldn't ever have seen their banner. Well, unless they also send a mail about it, and my mom missed it among all the spam.

@PaulWermer@sfba.socialAnd on a non- political gripe: Once again, #Google maps directions for walking wants to send me across a busy street, midway between 2 traffic lights.
Why does Google want pedestrians to take risks? Or do they just want to kill me because I'm not taking Waymo?
This is a well mapped area (San Francisco) so they must have the data on both traffic and signals.

@chris@mstdn.chrisalemany.caOnce upon a time when work was using its own email servers, I had to periodically archive my email accounts. I would create a new gmail account and just throw it up on there so the emails were still searchable in my mail client if the account was included…
Now I have a bunch of gmail accounts that have tens of thousands of emails form twenty years ago.
This is dumb... especially with storage the way it is these days.
So now I'm logging into those accounts, downloading the emails and any other Google data, and deleting the accounts from Google.
Fun Times, this long-time-digital-life life.

@chris@mstdn.chrisalemany.caThere used to be a Google provided cli tool that allowed you to script the uploading of videos to YouTube. (Google-CLI I think?). They pulled support a few years ago.

2) Are there any similar tools for PeerTube?

@ncoca@social.coopEverytime someone asks me to "please leave a #Google review" at this guesthouse/restaurant/etc, when I say "Sorry, I don't have a Google account" they seem so flabbergasted that they don't know how to respond.
