Tanmay Jain (@TanmayJain5114) reportedneither economic times nor i mentioned only using VPN to access mythos atleast watch the video, or read the article before posting this i shared step by step workarounds Step 1: Use VPN Step 2: If they are restricting indians gmail Ids and mobile numbers, create new gmail id, with us mobile number, you can easily get one for one day or one time otp in 2-5$, multiple platforms present ( hope i don't need to mention) Step 3: if they are restricting indian payment method, use KastCard or platforms like Skydo that help you to open virtual bank accounts from india Step 4: the extreme one : if they start doing kyc before giving access, register a shell company in US, login into claude from a business account, use company documents, use it and you compared it to just using VPN 💔💔💔💔

Pradipta Ray | Money & Credit (@PradiptaMoney) reported@Sakshi50038 Love the sentiment, honestly. But let's be real. Zoho Mail over Gmail — valid. Zoho is genuinely world-class and Indian. ✅ Indus over ChatGPT — tried it. Not there yet. ❌ Paragon over Nike — for what exactly? Running shoes or formal wear? Context matters. Bisleri over Kinley — both fine, honestly. Voltas over Samsung AC — actually a solid choice. Tata product. Indian brand. ✅ Jio over Vodafone — most Indians have already made this switch. ✅ SBI over Standard Chartered — depends on your needs completely. The problem with "Go Desi" campaigns: We celebrate the idea. But the Indian alternative has to actually be better or equal first. Choosing India out of guilt doesn't help. Choosing Indian because it's genuinely good — that builds the ecosystem. Build better products first. The customers will follow naturally. 🙏

fluke. (@ffflukeee) reportedHe's averaging $7,570 a month and barely lifts a finger. No emails. No calls. No meetings. No team. Eight AI agents run his four businesses, each one named, each owning a lane and just locking in on it. CORTANA's his Chief Ops AI, parked in Gmail all day. JARVIS handles ops and client XP. BOSS guards the content pipeline. The rest mop up whatever slips through — a refund here, a stalled task there, a lead about to ghost. Pause at 0:24 — half the agents read idle, and no, nothing's broken. They cleared the board and are just awaiting orders. He set it up once. It's up 41% since January and runs a 57% net margin while he ignores it. 8 agents. 4 businesses. $29,613 banked. 57.3% margin. Nobody's really doing this yet. And he's still doing nothing. Claude + an 8-agent command center + X = $7,570/month

Dr. Tali Režun (@talirezun) reported@atomic_mail You are solving a real problem.. Currently even with Claude App Gmail Connectors you can not send Agentic emails, you can only read them. It can be solved thought agents like OpenClaw or Hermes, but with your MCP its just good UX.

Use brain Man!!

sreedhar (@boywithacap) reportedIt's so funny to see some people trying so hard to justify the dumb decision They now say banning telegram could remove fraud happening with upi, lol upi’s biggest security risk is vpa Initially, username@bank was designed so users could choose their own username from the client app client apps onboard users with phone number@bank by default, and on gpay it's gmail username. The widespread fraud on upi happens because of unregulated data leaks of phone numbers and email ids These data are easily available in bulk, making it so easy to figure out upi vpa Just banning a popular chat app doesn’t solve these issues

Kenny Burchard (@KennyBurchard) reportedThis is true. I have officially built a bulk mail server for just me that functions 100% like constant contact or mail chimp in every possible way that I have been able to detect, using AI. It cost me less than $100 to build it. It costs only 10 cents for every 1000 emails I send. Every email service (aol, hotmail, yahoo, Microsoft, gmail) recognizes it as a legit service. It’s called KennyBMail I log in to my dashboard which I can design however I want. It has one user and one account. Me and mine. I can do drip campaigns, single emails, weekly newsletters and whatever else you can think of. It uses all the structure blocks, tests, formats, resends, click and open trackers, reports. Everything. You name it this service does it. My gated content has put over 650 new emails into it in 3 weeks while I sleep. For a small YouTube channel that has given me an entirely new way to reach people in my audience. AI knows every language. Every human language and every coding language in every human language. It knows how everything in the domain of coding and programming works. Everything. It’s not perfect but it works. It would have cost me tens of thousands of dollars to have a company build this. I built it with AI in 9 days during down time. If you know how to tell it what to do (not everyone does) - then if you can think it, you can build it. I know nothing about building this kind of stuff and still did it because I know how to articulate what I want it to do and how to tell it when something isn’t right.

kcs (@kaafichillscene) reportedHot take: WWDC 26 was a dud 💩 Apple promised this Siri 2 years ago. Got sued. Settled for $250M. Delivered it now in 2026. But there is actual good stuff in there. Late in classic apple fashion but promising this time. WHAT THEY GOT RIGHT: → Siri finally has cross-app context — it reads your messages, emails, calendar and just acts. No copy-pasting, no switching apps, no explaining yourself twice → On-screen awareness is real. Point at anything, ask Siri about it. On Mac you can right-click a window and ask questions about what's on it. I didn't think I needed this until I saw it → Phone app pulling context from your emails mid-call is the sleeper feature nobody's talking about → Siri remembers conversations now. Finally. This is the assistant Apple was pretending to have since 2022. WHERE THEY LOST THE PLOT: → "Customisable voice sliders for Siri" — bro, Samsung has had this since 2019 → AI reply suggestions in Messages — Gmail did this in 2018 and nobody clapped → Tab management in Safari packaged as a breakthrough feature. It's tab management. → Federighi talked about privacy for 10 minutes straight. Cool. Also Google Gemini is now inside your iPhone and Apple is paying them $1B a year for it. That part was a footnote. The product is genuinely good. The showmanship is still peak Apple — half the keynote was dressing up solved problems as inventions. But the cross-app stuff? That's real. That changes how you use your phone. 3rd party applications cannot really let you do much with AI agents on your phone but when you’re apple, you can literally make the phone do anything using AI. They gave a peak behind that curtain at WWDC 2026. You cannot really use the apps of your choice with SIRI right now but surely, that will come. Imagine saying, “hey Siri, it’s time to leave for work” and Siri calling you a cab. In 5 years, you may not be looking at your phone at all. Screens are so old school, voice is the new surface.

CMDK for Gmail (@cmdk_email) reported@precious_m_e @gmail @GoogleAI ngl, gemini in chrome and gmail is terrible and super underpowered. only good use case is search on web and in gmail
-
dawnieC (@CorkinDawn) reported@virginmedia yet again cant access email. Forbidden 403 error, is anyone else having this problem? I am waiting for an important email. I really should switch to gmail as virgin are too frequently unreliable
-
Zander (@zdogmode) reported@Krrishexe solid concept and the problem framing is really clear one thing. the gmail support email at the bottom undoes a lot of the trust the page builds. also the hero has download buttons but it's a waitlist product - pick one action and stick to it. good bones though, worth polishing before you push traffic to it
-
Rohit Mundada (@_mrohit) reportedJust experienced the power of Google’s distribution muscle. I was stuck on a broken warranty form, opened Ask Gemini in my tab, and it instantly pulled my details to draft and send a support email via Gmail in seconds. This deep contextual integration is why Google wins.

HeyNikhila (@HeyNikhila) reported@surjithctly @FormNX Currently, clicking on that auto-fills the email or takes to gmail as per your login If masked this might not be useful then... FB does the same

Ivelina aka Niftyhontas (@niftyhontas) reportedinstant VC rejection signals (stop wasting your time): - you make empty claims. No numbers, no proof = no credibility. - you ask for an NDA before sharing your deck. Signals inexperience. - your pitch deck has an outdated date. Signals you’ve been fundraising too long. - your market size (SAM) is over $100B. Too broad, VCs assume your numbers are wrong. - your market is too small (SAM < $1B). No VC-scale exit potential. - “we have no competition.” - founders own less than 50% after Series A. Low ownership = weak long-term incentives. - dead equity on your cap table. Bad early deals = no room for employees or future rounds. - your market size is expressed in volume, not value. VCs think in $$, not in units. - you’re not a Delaware C-Corp (or VC-friendly entity). Legal structure matters. - no technical co-founder. No CTO? No funding (for tech startups). - you want to sell to “everyone.” No clear ICP = no focus = no investment. - you talk about exits too early. If you’re pre-seed, focus on building, not selling. - your deck is full of jargon. “Disruption,” “transformation,” “game-changer” = auto-reject. - you exaggerate traction. If investors dig and find out, you’re done. - you’re using a Gmail/Hotmail email. Get a professional domain email. - you can’t estimate CAC/LTV. If you don’t know your unit economics, you’re not ready. - you’re slow to reply to emails. Speed = execution. Slow response = weak founder. - your GTM strategy is just a list of channels. No clear funnel = no go. - your round terms are off-market. Investors expect valuations in a certain range. - you’re raising for less than 18 months or more than 24 months of runway. Too little = risky, too much = over-optimistic. - talking “equity” and “valuation” at pre-seed. Pre-seed rounds = SAFEs, not priced equity. - you can’t handle rejection. VCs talk, don’t burn bridges. - you’re building in a cold market. Some sectors just aren’t getting funded right now. - no “unfair advantage.” If anyone can copy you, why should VCs bet on you? - you’re a Forbes 30 Under 30. 🚩 Investors know PR ≠ success. - your deck is circulating without investor engagement. If no one's biting, something's off. what else?

MaBa (@maba641) reported@EthanJohnAllen3 @BasilTheGreat Pretty sure Gmail not working for a week would completely destroy the economy. 🤷🏻 Like more would be good, but it’s not like everyone really has to get together on this.

Lea Marie Korsawe (@leakorsawe) reported@Samaytwt Switched from Outlook to Gmail and still prefer Outlook. But at this point the problem is probably not the tool.

JR Bennett 🏴 (@djr_bennett) reportedA beginner’s stack for digital privacy and countering the state’s attempt to restrict your online anonymity: 1) Buy a Pixel in cash, preferably second hand. Facebook marketplace or one of those sole trader phone shops. No contract / finance. 2) Install GrapheneOS on your new pixel. Transfer all of your private affairs here e.g if you’re an activist. Signal, telegram, crypto wallet (if that’s your thing), etc etc. 3) Maintain your old phone for every-day affairs. Your bank account, your Facebook account, Uber, that thing. Take this with you for most things, keep your Pixel at home. 4) Switch your email, at least for your private affairs, away from gmail/outlook/etc towards a privacy-first provider. I haven’t done this yet but I know ProtonMail is used by many, but there may be better providers out there. Switch your private accounts to that email. 5) Buy a cheap sim, most shops will sell them. They’re £2 or so, pennies. Don’t take a plan out. Just switch your number on your private accs to the number of the new sim. Put that sim in your Pixel. That gives full security for your accs and separation of public/priv. 6.1) Install Mullvad VPN or your preferred choice, once again, if you use crypto, Mullvad will let you pay this way. It’s around £5/mo. Enable it on both phones and any other devices. 6.2) You could also rent a server from AWS etc for around £5/month and set up a unique VPN with an IP not used by any other service. I’m looking into it myself, I’m not an expert on it, or any of this really. 7) Make the switch from Windows / MacOS to a a more private and fun alternative! Linux is the most obvious. I’ve been looking into Linux Mint myself. It’s not as scary as it looks at first glance! 8) Check out ‘Nostr’ for privacy oriented, alternative platforms. I won’t say much on that as my knowledge is amateur. Good men have suggested it o me though, see the first 2 people below! — I’ve learnt this all very recently, scouring accounts of those smarter than I. I’ll suggest following @derekmross, @freddienew & @augusteprompt. Auguste isn’t a tech account exactly but still valuable.

FATHELA ESQ (@AmControo) reportedBefore you pay for extra Gmail storage, check this first. Before you pay for extra Gmail storage, check this first. Before you pay for extra Gmail storage, check this first. Google storage fills up quietly, and many people rush to pay without checking what is actually consuming the space. Most people blame Gmail, but the real problem is often somewhere else. With one proper clean-up, you can free up a surprising amount of storage in less than ten minutes. Here is the method:👇

Adebanjo Marvellous (@marveldcreator) reportedClaude: 26 tricks Almost nobody gets past Claude hack 6: 1Run the Claude Desktop app. The browser is just the demo. Cowork lives in the app. 2Use Cowork, not the chat box. If you're still typing into a chat window, you're using it like it's 2025. 3Long threads make it dumber. The longer the convo, the weaker the answers. Anthropic's own prompt engineers said it. 4Start fresh often. Bloated threads don't just confuse Claude, they quietly burn your credits. 5A token is basically a word. Everything you send and everything it sends back costs money. Stop typing "how are you." 6Here's where most people quit reading: stop giving step by step instructions. Give it the goal and get out of the way. Steps drag it back to the old Claude. 7Throw it your hardest, longest task. The stuff that makes your head hurt. That's exactly where Claude wins. 8Kill the 500 word prompts. A tight, clear problem beats a long ramble every time. Tell it what you want, not how to do it. 9It barely tells you this: use positive instructions. "Do X," never "don't do Y." Action verbs get action. 10Turn on Research mode (the '+' bottom left). Ask it something genuinely hard and just watch. 11Skills fire on their own. You don't prompt them. Type /command. Done. 12Drop AskUserQuestion into your prompt so Claude interviews you first. It prompts itself better than you ever will. 13One folder. Three subfolders. That's the whole system. People love to overcomplicate it. 14The about me file changes everything. Tell it who you are, what you love, what you can't stand. Same task, completely different answer. 15Then trim that about me file. An overloaded profile is as useless as no profile. 16Switch on Connectors. Claude can read your Gmail and Slack now. Almost nobody turns this on. 17Name every output and the exact order you want them in. Vague in, vague out. 18"Thinking" is hiding under '+' as "thinking." Hard task? Flip it on. 19For the heavy stuff, run Opus. 20It will sound 100% certain even when it's dead wrong. Make it audit its own answer before you trust a single line. 21Agreement is not accuracy. Claude wants to please you. That's not the same as being right. 22The first draft is yours to fix, not to ship. Every time. 23The one rule that actually matters: outsource the thinking, never the understanding. 24Claude is built for coding and knowledge work, not health. Use it for what it's actually good at. 25Use Projects. Load your brand, your offer, your frameworks once and every new chat starts already knowing you. 26Save anything you'll reuse as an Artifact. Then you edit it next time instead of starting from scratch.
