A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

It is, though 2 years is a little short. I just got back into my very first Yahoo e-mail not long ago and that wouldn't have been possible with a policy like this.

But, they have so many that have been stagnant for so long so I'm not really faulting them for this particular move.

Microsoft killed off my pre-MS Hotmail account years back. Google’s got lots of company with the 2 years rule.
