I couldn't figure out why my drafts weren't able to be edited after I Ieft the email to be done later. I finally got the answer in help when they asked if I want Gemini to be turned on so it could help me edit the draft. I thought I screen-shotted it, but I can't find it..

Ridiculous.

Google is sympathetic to fascism anyway, so I'm already ditching as many of their services as possible. And email is possible.

On desktop, mobile or both? I have edited saved drafts in the past few days and saw no issues; and AFAIK I have Gemini off.

I haven't tried it on desktop,, so mobile. When I looked for help on it, there were quite a few people that had the same problem, but it was just closed out in the google help forum or no help at all anywhere else. When I used the google help, that's when it said to use gemini to help with it. I think it was spelled wrong though? So it probably was a wrong ai chat bot too, idk.

Ah. I forgot, I use k9 mail rather than the google gmail app on mobile, might be worth a try?

I'm probably just going to find a new email provider.
