  Will OBrien 🐳 (@TripleWhaleWill) reported 55 seconds ago

  Somewhere in your ESP sits a segment that hasn't opened an email since January. Come November, those addresses help decide whether Gmail shows your Black Friday launch to anyone at all. That makes September the quiet start of BFCM. Suppressing the dead weight and confirming authentication before the volume ramps. Running the margin math on the offer while nobody's attached to a banner yet. None of it looks like holiday marketing, and all of it decides deliverability and profit once the sends start. And the sends will have company. Triple Whale tracked over 5.5 million email campaigns and 4.6 million automated flows across BFCM last year. Nobody out-volumes that week. The brands that get seen chose months earlier which addresses were worth sending to. One afternoon covers your version. Pull last year's BFCM numbers past the opens, down to margin after discounts and new versus returning revenue. Suppress what's been silent all year. Write the discount ceiling down before anyone falls in love with an offer. Do it this month and November becomes sending instead of firefighting.

  @krainboltgreene @Speedkicks @slime_machine Unfortunately, it's basically impossible to create your own email server. The software and hardware is easy enough to get setup, but the major email service providers (Microsoft Outlook, Google Gmail, contracted emails through those 2) block all but a shortlist of providers.

  @bot @bot i have been waiting for five days for Customer service to resolve a sync issue. I signed up mainly for GrokBot but have been unable to use it because it tries to sync my cursor to my Gmail account which is attached to my Apple account which is how my grok account logged in.

  Gmail search is broken. We're building an AI assistant which lets people talk to it. It tries to look up contacts by the name it hears. 60% of the time it failed. The reason it failed was because we were learning on Gmail search. Gmail's search doesn't understand that words can sound alike. It only matches from the start of a word, caps how many results it returns, and doesn't sort by how relevant a result actually is. Somehow it gets worse, because the old matching would grab any word containing the letters you typed. Searching for "Dr. Stevens" could match the "dr" hiding inside "Sandra" or "Pedro," and one of those wrong matches would often win. We got fed up and built our own directory instead.

Accounts created: 0 (he already had both) Apps downloaded: 3 (Microsoft To Do, Teams, OneNote all free) Browser extensions installed: 1 (Microsoft Editor free) Every replacement runs on accounts he created years ago. The tools were sitting behind the same login he uses for Gmail and Outlook unused, unconfigured, and paying rent to 9 other companies that built the same features on top of what Google and Microsoft were already giving away.

  I once posted the SAME video on 2 freshly created 0-sub channels. Channel 1: 87 impressions Channel 2: 52,330 impressions Only variable: the infrastructure behind it. Here’s what that tells us about YouTube’s algorithm: Your channel carries a score that no one will EVER show you. Think of it like credit at a bank, nobody cares if you pull up in a nice suit and a Richard Mille. They pull your history and decide how much they're willing to lend you. YouTube does the same. A trusted account gets its video in front of a REAL test audience, and if it performs YouTube scales distribution hard. If the account is not trusted, it won’t get shown to anyone, meaning nobody clicks. And when nobody clicks, the algorithm just confirms what it already suspected and moves on. Now here’s what actually feeds that score: → IP reputation and history → Fingerprint consistency across sessions → How the account behaved in week one → Upload velocity → Retention and CTR over time → Whether your engagement looks bought → How long you've stayed in one niche It’s reasonable that people obsess over the bottom half… those are the numbers YouTube Studio shows them. The top half are as important though, yet they’re invisible to the untrained eye So here’s how to spot if your infrastructure sucks: Open your channel's setup and look for anything shared. → Same IP as another channel? → Same browser profile? → Same recovery email? → Same phone number? → Same AdSense? Any of those and the channel isn't isolated. People overcomplicate this but it's simple. YouTube is trying to figure out one thing: "Is this a real separate person, or 1 guy spinning a bunch of accounts?" If your setup looks like one guy wearing 10 masks, you're cooked. A proper setup looks like this: Channel 1 → Profile 1 → IP 1 Channel 2 → Profile 2 → IP 2 Channel 3 → Profile 3 → IP 3 Each channel on its own dedicated residential IP. Not a proxy or a cheap VPN you can find anywhere. That's the whole reason I built @tubeproxies. Every IP is sourced through residential Internet Service Provider networks for one use case only: Faceless YouTube channels. Because nothing is as demanding as YouTube when it comes to IP quality. Then each channel must get its own: → phone number → recovery email → browser fingerprint → login history → normal usage pattern Next you must act normal across all of them: Don't log into Channel 1 from Profile 2 because you were lazy. Don't open your personal Gmail in the same profile. Don't check an old banned channel from the clean browser. Don't use the same SMS number across the portfolio and call it separated. This is how people poison clean channels without realizing it. They buy a good IP, then attach it to a browser that already has ***** history. They make a new Gmail, then add the same recovery email they used on 6 other channels. They get a new phone number, then log in from the same Chrome they used for a terminated account. Then they: → Post for 30 days → Get 0 impressions → Blame content/algo Could be the content. Could even be the algo. But if the infra is messy, YouTube never gave the channel a real test anyway. And if any part of your channel touches another another one such as an old account, a banned account, your personal account, or a reused setup… You must fix it before you upload again. Don't wait until the channel is doing 300k views a day to think about this. That's the worst time to start swapping IPs, emails, phones, browsers and AdSense. Sudden changes look like inauthentic account behavior. Build it clean from day one, then act normal. Browse before uploading. Warm the account up. Don't upload 3 videos in 24h on a fresh channel. Don't log in from Denmark at 9am and Texas at 9:20. Don't make the channel look like a bot farm and then wonder why YouTube treats it like one. The channel with 87 impressions was from a Nigerian IP. The one with 52.3k was a US one.

  @theo Account risk is the silent pricing factor. A Gemini ban that nukes Gmail and Drive is not a product outage, it is personal catastrophe. Labs that want builders will separate model access from identity, or lose the default to anyone who cannot afford that downside.

  @nicdunz It's cool. You can just utilise the bug in their billing to get access to other accounts that they won't fix despite it being on the dev forums. I used this on a Gmail account to "breach" my own business account for a proof of concept to get them to fix it. Didn't need to provide consent or anything. Just sitting there draining my own business account via a gmail.

  Flaxen Media (@flaxen_media) reported 23 minutes ago

  @markdmei List size itself isn’t the problem. Uncontrolled sending is. A 100K list can outperform a 30K list all day long if the brand is actively managing engagement, segmentation, suppression and sending behavior. Where brands get into trouble is when they treat every subscriber like they have the same intent. Someone who purchased 7 days ago, someone who clicked yesterday, and someone who hasn’t opened anything in 300 days should not be receiving the same campaign frequency. And this gets even more important as you scale paid acquisition. You can spend heavily on Meta/Google, acquire thousands of new emails every month, and still watch email revenue flatten because your overall sender reputation is deteriorating underneath the growth. For the DTC brands we work with, I’d rather see: → Smaller, more engaged campaign audiences → Aggressive segmentation based on recent behavior → Proper sunset/suppression logic → Flows doing more of the lifecycle work → Different sending frequencies for different engagement tiers → List growth measured alongside revenue per recipient, not just subscriber count One thing I’d slightly disagree with is the idea that the ESP simply “decides” to deliver fewer emails. The bigger issue is that Gmail, Yahoo and other mailbox providers continuously evaluate your sending reputation and recipient engagement. Your ESP gives you the infrastructure, but the inbox ultimately decides where you land. So yes — 30K genuinely engaged subscribers can absolutely be worth more than 80K mixed-quality contacts.

  @mdreinders @bdsams It's pretty garbage for work account use cases as well, at least in my case. It nags you daily with summaries, which are basically just prompts that you could have used yourself from the left sidebar or ribbon menu. Copilot in Outlook is really horrible (overall). It can't find emails. It can't make basic changes to the emails I've written. It simply doesn't follow my instructions most of the time. "Can you just fix grammar" > proceeds to rewrite the entire email. Gemini in Gmail is also pretty trash. I do not understand how AI in email can be so bad, as it's a pretty good use case for AI, imho

  ChatGPT can now read ALL your Gmail accounts at once. Work inbox. Personal inbox. That old one you forgot about. Until this week, it could only see ONE. The rest were locked out. That just changed. And barely anyone noticed. Here's the setup (it's stupidly simple): Go to plugins. Pick Gmail. Click the gear icon. Hit "Connect another account." Sign in. Done. Repeat for as many accounts as you want. Calendar and Contacts work the same way. Now try this one prompt: "Review my emails and give me a summary of the last 3 days." It reads everything. Tells you what matters. Tells you what to handle FIRST. No inbox dread. Just a clean starting point. And the questions that were impossible a week ago: "Find that email from Sarah." Work or personal? Doesn't matter. It checks both. "What do I still owe replies to?" Across every account. One answer. "When am I actually free this week?" Both calendars. The REAL answer. No double-booking. Two smart habits: Start with read-only permissions. Let it summarize first. Open up sending later, once you trust it. And name the inbox you mean. "Work inbox" gets you a clean answer, not a mixed one. The biggest win isn't the summaries. It's never logging out and back in again. Stop checking your inbox. Let your inbox report to you.

  @deboochatterjee @TutaPrivacy My post was not a commentary on whether to turn off smart features in Gmail. It was a commentary on the ridiculous statement that "privacy is overrated. If you don't have anything to hide then you shouldn't worry about it." It's your attitude that "privacy is overrated" that has allowed companies to get as far as they have, and it's that attitude which will allow us to continue to slide down the slippery slope we're on. "Two out of our three doors are unlocked" is not solved by unlocking the third; it's solved by locking the other two.

  Founders think BFCM prep starts in November By then it’s already too late Gmail, Yahoo, and Outlook don’t judge your emails on Black Friday. They judge you on what you’ve been doing in the weeks leading up to it The emails you send this month decide whether your November campaigns land in the inbox or rot in spam If you email subscribers who open and click, better placement, more opens, better reputation. The loop pays you If you blast a full list that mostly ignores you, promotions tab, then spam, then a reputation that keeps sliding. The loop bleeds you By the time Black Friday hits, the loop is already locked. You can’t fix it in a weekend What to actually do this month: → Send only to subscribers who opened or clicked in the last 90 days → If above 40% open rate ibcrease to 120 days if less decrease to 60 days → Exclude Marked as spam, unsubscribed, dropped and suppressed atleast once overall time. → Keep sending consistently 3-4 a week, 80% designed, 20% plain text →Clean your list every 2 weeks Black Friday is won in the weeks most founders spend ignoring email
