Hey friends - I got a quick (but hopefully super useful) tip for you this week!

## Google likes me wayyyy too much

I (obviously) love all of Google’s services - the ones they don’t deprecate after a week anyway 😏 - but even I couldn’t help but notice that every time I sign up for a new Google service or install a new app from Google, I tend to start receiving updates from that new service.

Clingy much?

This brought me down a rabbit hole of seeing just how many Google product mailing lists I was on.

## Manage all your emails from Google

I was pleasantly surprised to come across this [preferences page](https://myaccount.google.com/communication-preferences?ref=jeffsu.org) in my Google account, where I can toggle off (or on) email communications across different Google Products!

I recommend spending \~30 seconds to toggle off emails you prefer not to receive.

Your future self will thank you 😊
