:pain: The other day I typed in my mom's name to try and find an email she sent a couple weeks ago, and it didn't turn up. I eventually found it by going to "all mail" and using Firefox's "find on page" function instead of Google's search mail function, but how the hell is that broken? It's just a simple string search in a database, I could program it myself in Godot!
It's an old, established project and the corporate culture is that old projects are where your career goes to die. So only the dumbest employees are working on it. Plus it's free, and probably not very profitable because users push back against privacy invasions in their email more than other places.
I wonder if the enterprise gmail is broken in the same way. They care a little bit about the customers who actually pay them.
