My Gmail inbox is mostly fine, tbh. Most spam seems to get trapped in the default filters without much issue.

Using outlook (hotmail) I’ve had a grand total of one spam email make it to my inbox this year. All the rest has landed in the spam folder.
I can’t think of anything that’s been incorrectly flagged as spam either…
I get far more spam calls and texts than I do email spam. Android filters out spam sms pretty well, but not much I can do about calls (especially with spoofed local area codes). Just pick up, wait for a ‘hello’ from a person and immediately hang up when text-to-speech starts babbling at me instead.
I almost only receive spam calls. I sometimes wonder whether it’s even worth paying for a number these days.
this is highly relatable. it is insane that I have to have a spam folder in my text messaging app now
Whoa, not good. Looks like more online accounts may get hacked from phishing with this increase of spam emails slipping through. I know a Youtuber that very recently got their Youtube account hacked & stolen from a phishing email sent to their Gmail. Luckily they got their account back, but I believe it was due to the help of their friends & audience on Youtube, as they were told by Google that most people who get their channel stolen like that don’t get it back. I’m glad I use Proton Mail for my main email account. Its spam filter is robust.
Was that YouTuber Linus?
No. It was Cynthia G.
