    • Worked well for me, thank you! Top bar menus won't stay open and can't be used unless I hold mouse down and navigate with arrows. Linux and compiled from source.

    • I really cleaned out Gmail a couple of months ago and all I had to do was to filter for attachments over a specific size. How much different is your app?

    • Great! Can you make one for Google photos? It's impossible to delete photos easily from Google
