My Drafts - who's got the most?

MagicPigDetective

Just noticed I've got 300 of them! Should I be deleting them? How?

I had a few thousand last time I cleared them out. Only got 28 at the moment...

That would make me very anxious.
I have zero.

I have zero.

You'd hate my life on here, then...I can't even see the inbox icon any more...

245. can you mass delete them?

I have 155 at time of writing. It makes me itch, just slightly, but there's no bulk-delete option, so they'll stay.

I honestly don't understand how people can have, like, 12,447 unread emails with that red icon on their phone just sitting there.

In so many ways.

I have 13,184 of those!

Most I've previewed, or mailing list stuff that I've ignored and haven't got around to unsubscribing.

I don't think it's possible to mass delete your own but I'd be happy to have mine mass deleted as I appear to have over 1,300.  I just haven't ever spent the time to click X on each individually.

octatonic

I also have zero unread emails.
I couldn't possibly live otherwise.

Yes, I have OCD in case you were wondering.

click on drafts. move cursor to the right and a x will appear. Hover over the x till it fades and delete. ie click.

How do you sleep at night?

I currently have 8 which is all stuff I have to attend to and I still hate it.

Ta. I'll have plenty of time on my hands now to delete them all.

Only 23 for me. I hardly ever get sidetracked, so they mostly all get sent.

I struggle to express myself...…...hence the many aborted posts.

I type long replies on topics I care about, and then decide not to post what I've written because it won't change anything and is often just throwing petrol onto a fire that deserves to die. And by the time I've finished typing, I feel better, anyway.

I do this too- I just delete it after deciding not to post.

I have 1 item in My Bookmarks but it is empty when you open it....driving me crazy slowly over the last year....feels good to tell people

Never mind drafts.

I'm pretty sure I'm being encouraged to keep spending money. My GAS is through the roof.

I always delete mine, but it can be a real pain in iOS, even in the 'Full Site' mode - the x is invisible at first and shows up when you touch anywhere on the title, but then trying to click on the x just takes you back to the thread every time. Sometimes there's just no other way than to wait until I'm on the computer.
