    Agree with commandcenter.blogspot.com/2024/01/what-w… that Go has simplified concurrency, but there's still lots of room for mistakes. Case in point, the concurrency example in the post has a bug -- a timeout leads to stuck goroutines. Concurrency needs care, regardless of the language.

    I still miss bundles from Inbox, and recently discovered inboxymail.com which gives similar functionality, not quite as nice as a native experience, but I do appreciate that it's OSS
