      I heard from people who had the same luck, that they get E-Mails all the time from people with the same name who are too stupid to remember their address.
      So JohnDoe69@gmail.com always registers with JohnDoe@gmail.com, so you get their Mails instead. Is it a real problem?

        I don’t think it ever happened to me. But I have a Dutch first name and a Czech last name, so there probably aren’t many people around with my name.

        And it was a pretty modern first name at the time, so not a lot of boomer mail coming my way either.

    Nothing makes me uninstall an app than it asking for an account for something that very much shouldn’t need one, or sending me notifications like “uwu you haven’t used our app in 3 days, is everything oki? 🥹”
