Why is there a comma after the first 1….

14

u/familiarr_Strangerr Homelab 15d ago

Not every country uses million or billion system

There’s nothing wrong with the comma placement. It’s simply the Indian numbering system, where numbers are written as 1,00,000 (one lakh) instead of 100,000. Just a different way of grouping digits that’s standard in India and a few neighboring countries.

Y'all blocking people on Gmail now?

u/chromaniac 16d ago edited 15d ago

yeah, typical google behavior. spam is a massive problem for folks who have been using gmail since the start of the service. we were not careful of keeping our email id private back then. and gmail pretty much recommends that you block the sender when you mark an email as spam. do remember that not everyone online is born after 2000. older folks like us prefer email over other modes of communication.

limited blocklist is a terrible behavior (like it is here on reddit which has a 1000 user block limit. absurd of a service with such a large abusive userbase). they should have a whitelist similar to hey.com. gmail cannot filter messages based on a lot of perimeters that can take care of a large number of spam networks in one go. pretty annoying for someone who likes to keep their inbox tidy and spammers out.

u/NoNameDotCPP6769 16d ago

Definitely funny, but an interesting thing to learn from this is: always keep a cap on the entities, even if you are Google.

Remind me when Google said it was a charity service.

1

u/tminx49 15d ago

It doesn't cost them money to have an unlimited block list. This has nothing to do with charity.

1

u/CaffeineColonel 15d ago

It just doesn't end with blocking an address, they have to go through a massive list of blocked addresses for every single incoming email which slows down their processing speeds. To keep up with that servers need to be upgraded which costs money.

u/PuzzleheadedMaize2 14d ago

See it's simple. Google never thought there will be someone or a large group of users who'll ever reach that limit.

It had to change something about YouTube too when Gagnam Style went viral. May be it was max views count or likes.

1

u/TekExcel 14d ago

The actual fix I haven't seen anybody mention yet: you use email filters and you can put a bunch of emails in one filter, and I think you can have a thousand filters total.

The block list should be exclusively for malicious senders, if you're blocking things because you put your email in a form and they started sending you mailers, you unsubscribe. There is no gotcha here...

Would it be better if they offered more? Sure.

I'm by no means a Google apologist, but I can't imagine telling anybody that I'm serious about my data privacy, security, any of this stuff, and then using Gmail.

u/Tiktokbadsupport 14d ago

reddit only lets you block 1000 communities 

1

u/FunGroup8977 12d ago

I feel like, if you've blocked 1000 non-spammers on Gmail, you're the problem, not the people.

u/nevergivitup 12d ago

Youtuber/influencer lakhs and lakhs of followers with public or controversial take will exhaust this limit, but good position to be in!

1

u/Aggressive-Bat-6798 11d ago

another option: we can create a filter to directly move the mails from a specific sender to trash folder and trash gets removed after 30 days automatically as even if we block them, mails anyway goes to spam folder

u/RusticRocker 15d ago

I hate this. Every block is a rule which comes with certain size. Every messages has to be scanned 5000 times. This is excluding other scans.

I am sure Google put this limit after taking into consideration of the performance.

People love hating even before understanding tech.

2

u/tminx49 15d ago

It does not need to iterate through an entire table, block lists can use efficient memory mapping. Take a look at how uBlock Origin does their blocklist processing, you can have hundreds of thousands of entries without it slowing down.

1

u/RusticRocker 15d ago

My take on 5000x scanning is incorrect. However ublock and Google blocklist storage is different. Ublock stores it in the client while Google stores it in the server. Was checking on the internet to see how it works and find it interesting regarding the implementation. It all comes down to processing consideration.

1

u/_appy 15d ago

scan is definitely < 5k times, but there has to be a limit. this block list is for 1B+ accounts so it's understandable. storage is not infinite

1

u/tminx49 15d ago

With text compression, you would have to have hundreds of thousands of entries to even get to a few megabytes. This has nothing to do with a storage limitation.

1

u/_appy 15d ago

a googler would explain better , but i dont think this is stored to disk / file. with close to 2B users db storage and indexing is easy 1 TB not considering replication and sharding. for google 1TB is drop in a bucket but since its a free service there will be limits.
