From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Gmail has a bad habit of losing my emails anyway. Maybe yours too if you ever used Google Inbox.

I migrated my main account to Inbox and it was honestly the best email experience I've had. Unfortunately, the forced migration following its collapse left my Gmail riddled with problems.

Granted, it's not losing days worth of email. It just occasionally attempts to automatically categorize emails into categories that don't exist, removing them from my inbox and leaving them in a weird uncategorized limbo space. Once there, I have to search for them specifically before they will show up anywhere.

The worst part is, it is so inconsistent that I have no clue when to expect it. I have missed major bills this way.

I have a coworker who is also an Inbox refugee. He is the only other person I've met with identical Gmail issues.

Victim of the Inbox move myself.... Same as it happens with Thunderbird, I started noticing something amiss when searching for emails I was certain I had were coming back empty

At first I thought my memory was not as good as I expected... But then realized what was going on
