    I’ve used Gmail since 2005 and don’t ever remember seeing ads, but then again I use ad blockers on pretty much all my devices.

      2000 or so for me. I have no idea how people are seeing ads in their inbox.

        I have seen it on the gmail app only so far.
        And not in the main mail box but in subfolders.

          yeah it’s only in the subfolders which are bullshit anyways so it’s no surprise longtime users opted out of that as soon as it came along

        The public beta started in like 04 or 05 IIRC, I got my Gmail account my freshman year of college. I guess you were one of the cool people that got in on the closed beta.

      I was able to see ads but I had to look for it. I can see them if I enable the promotions section and the look in the promotions section.

        So the ads are in the section labeled “ads”, who would have thought! (not being snide with you, just that’s where they should be haha)

        give it a few years and you’ll be seeing only ads and maybe an occasional email.
