Yeah I’ve been living that way more than ever since work stopped allowing us to use email clients other than gmail’s web app. I used to get email notifications with thunderbird but now I check my email like once a week when I remember
The only emails I ever get really are Jira and Github updates along with meeting invites. The updates are fine but I’m already on top of those and then the meeting invites just show up in my calendar so I don’t really need the actual email for them
I’m proud that I only have 76 unread emails at work. But I’m not going to bother reading them, and I’d feel guilty marking them as read.
I got up to 10,102 unread a while back before my friend begged me to mark them all as read
edit: to be fair Github spams me and my department doesn’t really email each other
edit 2: apparently I’m getting back up there with 494
Had a colleague with something similar, his philosophy was that if it’s important they’ll call him.

Just chuck them all into the trash folder.
This is the only correct way.
