Well, I’ve almost lost my main Gmail account today, because Gmail randomly decided to log me out while trying to connect to a YT channel and asked for my password. For extra verification, IT ASKED FOR A CODE FROM AN OLD DEVICE WHICH I DIDN’T USE FOR 200+ DAYS. Thank god it was my test device and I still had it, but if I didn’t, there is a good chance my main email would be gone. The best part, I wasn’t even logged into that device. My Gmail was actually removed from the account list on that phone, but somehow Gmail decided that that’s the BEST WAY to verify me, even though I have 4 other active devices connected to the account.
I’d like to hear the nay-sayers again that “Gmail is safe for personal emails.” Because I possibly almost lost my main account today. I am moving away from Gmail, enough is enough.
