-
SCO (@SashaCathlene) reportedIf you’re trying to hear back from an employers DO NOT use Gmail. It is not secure. There is some **** going down and trying to warn people.
-
Mrsky (@mrbusysky) reported@nima_owji One reason gmail works so well is because the 0auth signin. Not because it is the best.
-
Forestmail (@getforestmail) reported@xrplclaw Spam solved at the protocol level - that's the elegant fix nobody wants to build. A weekend project that could embarrass a decade of Gmail updates 👀

MJ😈✨🌙 ʷᶦᵗʰ ᵇᵗˢ (@LindaBurgers7) reportedHey @Google I need you to fix your Gmail issue. Constantly getting the notification that my storage is almost full. cool. great. awesome. I go to clean it out, why am I only able to select 251 emails at a time? Why can't I just click delete all & it will delete all??

Petru Iacob (@ecompetru) reportedEmail rendering across clients is a nightmare most brands ignore. What looks perfect in Gmail looks broken in Outlook. Dark mode destroys your design. Yahoo strips your CSS. Test across clients before every major send. Litmus or Email on Acid. No excuses.

Raghav Wadhwa (@raghavwadhwa) reportedA Gmail ID was used to impersonate a Central PSU. Nobody questioned it. And ₹20,000 crore in govt tenders got rigged. Let me tell you the story of India's most absurd corruption case. Jal Jeevan Mission, PM Modi's flagship scheme to give tap water to every rural home. Rajasthan alone got ₹10,180 crore from the Centre in FY22 and ₹13,328 crore in FY23. Almost 23% of the entire national JJM budget went to one state. Two tubewell companies wanted these tenders. Problem? They had zero experience. Solution? They forged experience certificates of IRCON, a Railways PSU. Fake letterheads, fictitious officer names. And for verification, they created a Gmail ID pretending to be IRCON officials. A Central govt PSU under Ministry of Railways. Replying from @ gmail. com. Not .gov.in. Not .nic.in. Gmail. And nobody in the entire PHED department found this suspicious. Not one officer. Combined, these two firms filed 230+ tenders using these forged documents. But the real Bollywood moment? PHED sent an engineer to Kerala to "physically verify" IRCON's work. The contractors and a forger reached Kochi ONE DAY before him. Checked into Hotel Woodlark. The forger was introduced to the engineer as "Vijay Shankar, CEO, IRCON International." Random photos of pumphouses were submitted as proof. The contractor left his personal phone in Jaipur and used an employee's SIM card to avoid GPS tracking. The engineer came back and submitted a "positive verification report." Now here's the part that makes your blood boil. In June 2023, IRCON's own Vigilance Department wrote DIRECTLY to the Addl Chief Secretary Subodh Agarwal — "These certificates are fake and fabricated." What happened? The warning emails were deleted. Compliant engineers were handpicked to give false positive reports. Three separate legal notices were sent to the department. All ignored. But the scam wasn't just about fake certificates. That was just ₹960 crore. The bigger game was ₹20,000 crore. Agarwal introduced a rule — "Site Visit Certificates" mandatory for tenders above ₹50 crore. Sounds like transparency, right? It actually exposed which companies were bidding BEFORE tender opening. Once everyone knows who else is bidding, you form cartels. You fix prices. Tender premiums were inflated 30-40% across the board. The numbers: ₹20,000 crore in tenders rigged 30-40% inflated premiums, 4% bribery formula ₹47 crore seized by ED so far — 0.2% of the scam The fraud ran from 2021 to 2023 under the Congress govt in Rajasthan. IRCON warned in 2023. CBI filed an FIR in 2024. ED arrested the minister in 2025. Agarwal was finally caught this week — after being on the run for 2 months, evading 40+ ACB teams across 100 locations in 21 cities. JJM 2.0 just got approved. Budget: ₹8.69 lakh crore. The real question — has the system that enabled this actually changed? Or are we just funding the next scam on a bigger scale

chekos (@ChekosWH) reportedthe email i use for most of my personal work uses a domain not gmail or whatever and I don't know what happened but now i don't get codes from Linear or Pencil. If I want to sign in I can't use a password they send me an email with a code or link but it never arrives.

ADEBAYO ADISA (@bodadisa) reportedLong story short, I asked to borrow her phone once to get out a contact as my phone had serious injuries, I went to her browser to login my gmail, that was how I saw different tabs open with different porn videos at the ready almost like having them at a speed dial.

Tunnnnn🥷🏽🐺🎒 (@darmich19) reportedZVOICE, This Starkzap Powered App Just Made Business Expense Reimbursement Onchain. And It’s Quietly Wild. Let me paint you a picture you’ve probably lived before. End of the month. your company needs expense receipts. you open Gmail and start digging. there’s the AWS bill buried under 47 unread emails. the Stripe charge from three weeks ago. the Notion invoice you forwarded to yourself and forgot about. you screenshot everything, paste it into a spreadsheet, attach PDFs, submit the form, and then wait. two weeks later, accounting emails back. “we’re missing your October receipts.” you do it all over again. This is the expense reimbursement experience in 2026. for most companies startups, agencies, remote teams, freelancers. it hasn’t changed in a decade. it’s still manual, still slow, still dependent on someone chasing someone else. ZVoice just built something that makes that entire ritual disappear. WHAT ZVOICE ACTUALLY IS. ZVoice is a privacy preserving invoice reimbursement platform powered by StarkZap. The tagline on the site is simple: “email arrives. money lands.” But what’s happening under the hood is genuinely interesting. your inbox already contains proof of every expense you’ve ever made. every vendor email,whether it’s a Stripe receipt, an AWS bill, a SaaS invoice is cryptographically signed by the vendor’s own mail server using something called a DKIM signature. DKIM stands for DomainKeys Identified Mail. it’s an email authentication standard that essentially means every legitimate vendor email carries a cryptographic stamp that proves it came from where it says it came from. Most people have never thought about this. but ZVoice did. ZVoice reads the DKIM signature on your vendor emails, generates a zero knowledge proof from it, submits that proof onchain, and the smart contract auto approves the reimbursement. payment hits your wallet. no PDFs. no spreadsheets. no “please resubmit.” that’s the whole product. and it’s deceptively powerful.

OnlyInterject (@OnlyInterject) reportedToday I literally had two Microsoft Outlooks, and neither one of those was working. I'm just like an astronaut, minus the whole traveling to the moon part. (PSA The fix was using Gmail YAMM instead of mail merge through Word.)

DuelistDeCoolest (@Duelist360) reported@gol_mia Oh it's remarkable. In my job, I'll interact with people who don't know how to attach a file to an email. I'll help and ask them to pull up their gmail. They'll say, "My email is on my phone." I'll ask if they know their gmail login info and they'll have no idea what I'm saying.

Wonderful Ad (@WonderfulAd007) reportedFew months back I launched a side product, sitting at $600 MRR now. To help people try it out, I gave 25 free AI credits on signup. Then some guy decided to farm them. Opened 600+ accounts. Gmail, Proton, Custom domain mail, you name it 30-40 new accounts every single day just to drain free credits. I tried banning them manually. Didn't scale. Got out of hand fast. Here's the thing I've been building @JoinDataCops for 2 years. Fraud detection, behavioral analytics, fake account patterns. I know this stuff cold. I just never thought I'd need it for my own product. So I sat down with my team. Four days later, DataCops detects it all. Linked accounts, device fingerprints, behavioral patterns it catches the farmers before they ever touch my credit. Full API now integrated into my side product. Those farmers? Yeah. We see you.
