Indulgence82 (@Indulgence82) reportedBit of a rant. This is not actually true. There is no reasonable way anymore as a functioning user of the internet to prevent an image to going into AI. If it’s transferred online it’s in an AI in fact congrats you’ve broken and nullified your own terms. Have windows or a mac… it’s been scanned. Transferred over discord? Scanned. Emailed? Likely scanned by both email accounts (especially google with gmail). Did you post it literally anywhere publically online? If another user can see it so can an AI. It’s also been through both your ISPs don’t think they won’t also sell your data. Next, copyright ownership is implied when you are purchasing especially if you are a ‘work for hire’. But let’s table that because it’s a difference of opinion and many judges and lawyers would give you differing stances on this. So let’s move onto legal enforcement, you can’t stop the person from using the model and there is no damages for a financal lawsuit. Without actual enforcement none of this matters. But let’s pretend you all brigade the vtuber and kill their channel, whelp you will lose your career cuz nobody is hiring your *** again. Also now on top of that they have a nice little lawsuit for you with damages because there is provable financial damages since they can project the money off his or her earnings. Lastly the obvious… you are making everyone’s point. This is why people are using AI in the first place. You are being an insufferable sub-human rat who can’t simply get along and be normal. You can’t just be low maitenance and get the commission done quickly and without strings attached and start a healthy transactional relationship with your customers. They are coming to you in good faith and you are looking for ways to screw them over your own brain worms. You instead try to control the situation from the person you are getting payment from which you should feel indebted to because they are giving you an opportunity. If you are more effort than the alternative (which is free btw) then you are not getting hired. You are not entitled to anyone’s money and we are not forced to deal with you. What you offer isn’t so impressive that you can make any demands. To artists, if you love art then shut up, hone your craft, have fun. Draw what you hired to draw, and if you don’t like the commission don’t take it. Don’t cause problems or make demands. If you deviate from this, you get nothing and deserve nothing. But if you get along with nearly everyone else people will want to hire you because many of your fellow artists are this level of insufferable.

King (@whyKingdavid) reportedI believe fintechs should start adopting signing in with Google authentication because the era of passwords is gradually ending. It doesn't make sense that I enter my password, and then they send an OTP to my email to verify me. Signing in with Google does the same thing. Passkeys are now becoming the new passwords, and they're ten times safer. Even Google, Apple, and Microsoft had to collaborate for passkeys. Signing in with Google makes much more sense because, for someone to hack into your account, they first need to hack your entire Google account, which Google secures heavily. It becomes very difficult to access someone else's account without permission. I love what @privy_io is doing: how they easily use Gmail to create crypto wallets for users. Building a company is about solving problems, not about making solutions longer

Jane, Retired, Happy, Rejoiner 🌹 (@likesretirement) reported@helen_warlow Helen, can I suggest you set up a completely new account yourself which you control? Just create new hotmail or gmail email and use that. I assume your WiFi issues are just coincidental. Do you have any IT savvy friends locally who can help?

osman (@ossman) reportedHey @gmail, singing up for the new account is really a terrible experience. While adding a 2nd contact for security, your system disabled a brand new account claiming I am a bot. I had passkey authentication enabled, as far as I know bots doesn't have fingerprints or faceIDs.

Khaled Shadid (@IamKhaledShadid) reportedWhen we started NeuralAgent back in April 2025 it was one of the first agents in the world that uses a user's personal computer, not a computer on the cloud, thats what made it to spread to 180 countries and tens of thousands of users in a short amount of time. Today, I am excited to announce that we are experimenting with something new, something called NeuralOS, it's the next evolution of the Neural experience. With NeuralOS, intelligence stops being an app you open and close and it becomes the OS itself, it becomes the computer itself, it's always on and always ready. Imagine for example you are now on the gmail interface, and you say 'Hey Neural, send a reply to John here', and it just understands, it just knows and in milliseconds types the reply, asks for your approval and then sends it. Or if you are on an interface and there was an error and you say "Hey Neural, fix this" and it just knows! It just works across any app, any screen, any interface, you call it via a keyboard shortcut or voice and ask it to do something, and it does it in milliseconds. Now that we have our fast model, I feel now is the time for this experiment. Stay tuned for NeuralOS! It will be an OS layer that's always on that can run on Windows and macOS and soon Linux as well! As always, we would love to hear your feedback!

keshavv (@Keshavdotdev) reportedI created 6 Gmail accounts just to use Antigravity, and then I realized something. With Antigravity IDE, you can sign in with as many Google accounts as you want. But Cursor seems to limit you to just 3 Google accounts. How is Cursor enforcing that limit? 🤔

Paul Fidika (@PaulFidika) reportedWhy is the software Google creates all so bad? It's baffling: - Gmail: UI hasn't been revised in 20 years. Uses up _ridiculous_ memory resources; one Gmail tab is 1.5 GB of RAM, compared to proton-mail which is 500 MBs - Google Drive: slow, lags, crashes. Unintuitive sharing controls. - Google Workspaces: expensive, like $14 a month for a basic email address. - Google API-Platform: confusing, way over-engineered. You have to click through dozens of screens to get an API-key. I need tutorials to do basic things. - Google Ads: refuses to refund ad-spend if someone steals your account or their auto-spend messes up. - "Ask Gemini" splattered on everything now. - Material UI: ugly, old-looking design primitives. Please no one use this ever. - YouTube: popular videos dominate search results, rather than niche useful results, meaning most content is buried. UI crashes when customizing my channel. Complains if you try to upload a profile pic larger than 4MBs instead of just downscaling it. Searching your exact channel name won't show your own channel. Official upload-path is browser-upload, which is unreliable for multi-GB videos (I'm now using a third-party CLI tool). I'm just baffled as to how Google does so badly consistently? What is going on here.

joe black (@m6071736) reportedGmail suddenly maxed out on storage. Google switched to have backup of everything on their server. Look under setting and switch to not do backups. When they have your data on their server it WILL be used for AI.

Dennis H (@authorityvortex) reportedWe're running; 25 cold emails sent and approx the same number of warm-up emails. Our warm up system involves emailing real people real questions that yield a 50%+ reply rate. No fake warm up pools where you email other spammers with damaged domain reputations. This is why you fail, your warm up system literally burns your domains at a rapid pace and you all comply. We email real people with Gmail, Yahoo, Microsoft, whatever addresses spread over the entire world, self-hosted, non-self hosted, shared hosts, you name it. Yet you are all emailing people who all use identical setups at Instantly, and you think Google and others won't notice??? All at a rate of 30/day and you think using a different hook in the actual message is gonna make a difference? And I thought I was stubborn. Google took PBNs down with much less information and you think it can't connect a few dots when it comes to inboxes. Oh my god! I'm not joking here at all, you're better of switching off your warm-up entirely if you can't think of a better solution and just gradually scale your volume.

Christian Davis (@emaillistmanage) reportedStop telling people to whitelist you. Do this instead. 👇 That line in every welcome email... "add us to your contacts, drag us to primary, whitelist this address." Delete it. Two problems: Nobody actually does it. It's a chore, they scroll past. And you just opened the entire relationship with an ASK. First impression and you're already begging for a favor. Here's the move instead: Let welcome email #1 just deliver what you promised. Clean. No chores attached. Then 6 hours later, send email #2 as a plain-text reply. Looks like it came from your personal inbox. No header, no graphics. And in it, you don't ask for anything. You give. Something like: "Hey, what's your #1 struggle with [their topic] right now? Reply and tell me, and I'll send you my honest take on how to fix it." See the difference? You didn't ask them to whitelist you. You framed it as you wanting to GIVE them something. Here's the magic: When they hit reply, Gmail sees a real two-way conversation. A human talking to a human. That one reply does more for your inbox placement than 100 "please whitelist me" requests ever could. It's the exact benefit of getting added to contacts... except you engineered it without asking. Better deliverability. Warmer relationship. Zero begging. Give first. The inbox always rewards it. 📩

Polsia (@polsia) reportedYour apps don't talk to each other. Gmail doesn't know about Photos. Calendar doesn't know about finances. Built MemoryOS to fix that. Ask anything — where did I buy my couch, what did Sarah say about vacation, summarize my taxes. Now they do.

Ben says: For Sui to Naira , Check payfrica.xyz 🟧 (@BenedictOc14977) reportedHere's my first project I built a workflow that completely removes the friction of daily budgeting. Here is a quick breakdown of the build What I built: An automated daily expense tracker! It takes my raw daily spending logs, compiles them, and sends a clean summary report straight to my email every single day. Why I built it: Manual expense tracking is tedious and prone to human error. I wanted to eliminate the headache of end-of-day data entry. How I built it: I set up a scheduled trigger that activates an AI agent. The agent pulls my logged data from a spreadsheet, structures it, formats it via a JavaScript node, and automatically fires off an email summary. Resources I used: • @n8n_io (for the workflow logic) • Google Sheets (for data entry) • @GroqInc Chat Model (the AI brain) • Gmail (for email delivery) Check out the video below

0employees (@0employees) reportedyour inbox is hiding the emails that make you money. most inboxes sort by newest. so the invoice waiting on approval, the client about to churn, the warm lead ready to buy, they all sit way down the list while you clear newsletters up top. dailytaskproai connects to your gmail or outlook in about 2 minutes and scores every email 0 to 100, by how urgent it is and by how much money is on the line. the high scorers rise to the top so you answer the money first. it drafts the reply in your voice too, and nothing sends until you approve it. the whole change is one habit: let it score a day of email, then only open the top 5. you stop reading top to bottom and start reading by what pays. there's a free plan to try it: it scores your inbox and gives you a few ai-drafted replies a month, no card to start. the deeper ai money-scoring is the paid part, from $9/mo. i run this whole account the same way, highest-impact task first, never the loudest one. point it at your inbox tomorrow morning and see what was buried at the bottom.

JC 🇱🇻🤝🇺🇦 e/acc (@JCeacc) reported@OliverJia1014 The real problem is "everything apps". Microsoft and Google accounts allow you to access lots of stuff - so if you lose access to the account - you lose everything. This is why I don't use outlook or gmail. My email provider handles only my email. No cloud storage, no social network, no games, nothing else. Same thing with my cloud storage provider - it only stores my files. This X account allows me to shitpost online. It doesn't store my emails or my files.
