Wish Google would just fix the Drive search rather than lard it up with AI nonsense. Often it’s easier to ask someone to resend the link to a document than find it by searching.

There are so many bugs and sub-par implementations in workspace that Google could fix. My cynical guess is that the source code to workspace apps is probably a mystery to the current generation of 23 year olds who are tasked in maintaining them, so they change little.
It’s wild that aside from gunk like AI and the occasional UI revamp and messaging app launch/kill cycle, the core Workspace features really haven’t changed or improved much since I started using it 15 years ago.
I wish they fixed search in general. It is difficult to find emails if you don't know exact keywords that might have been used etc. often even if you type in the right keyword it still won't find the email, even though email contains it.
Worst thing is people sharing files tbh, if someone has a folder and shares you a multiple documents from it you don't get the folder in your drive structure so you have n free files floating around in your drive that you cannot organize yourself.
