Mindy (@Mindy43087085) reported@paulickreport Why are you now requiring a gmail account to comment, to even read comments? Please go back to just any email, or make a login/sign in for your specific site.

Dele Ayoola (@_D3l3) reported@AirtelNigeria Uncle Nico, the data or YouTube night isn’t my problem. My problem is whether it’s day or night or midnight, the app doesn’t load. YT music, Gmail and YouTube itself. Please read my complaint again.

Mehedi👽| Email-Marketer (@mehediamply) reportedBecause the same thing already started on the read side Gemini now summarizes marketing emails inside Gmail Gmail carries 25% to 33% of all email opens So a growing share of your list gets the gist of your send without ever arriving at it One 60k newsletter watched open rates fall from 45% to 25% with zero changes on their end Here's the shape of the problem:

javan (@jai_arjuna) reportedan email inbox that self organizes, saves me time and surfaces what i need quickly – overall easy and pleasant to use, has agents helping to route, respond, and compile context. the UI feels more like a chat app than an inbox. gmail and proton and every other email inbox out there are terrible communication platforms and the UI is functionally retarded. someone please fix this. who’s building?

MostlyHarmless (@harmless_human) reported@rallynate @kbean511 There has probably been a data center near most of them for years and they didnt know. Where do they think netflix and youtube video is stored and all the photos on grandma facebook and gmail account they never delete anything from? The real issue is the mega computer centers running AI programming that shouldnt even be called data centers.

SYNTHLEX (@SYNTHLEX_) reportedxAI just handed Grok Bots the right to read, write, and act inside your Microsoft accounts. The timeline is fighting about whether that is safe. The real story is a single permission scope that almost nobody clicked through to read. Grok's Outlook connector asks for two things at sign-in: Mail.ReadWrite and Mail.Send. Full send authority from the first Accept. Grok's Gmail connector, by comparison, starts read-only and only earns send access when you turn it on. Read that again. The Microsoft account got the more permissive default. That is not a footnote. That is the exact line where an assistant becomes an employee. Now look at the screenshot everyone scrolled past. A left sidebar of named workers. Schedule Manager. Inbox digest. Bug triage. Expense digest. Launch post. That is not a chat window. That is a staff directory. First. The unit of AI work stopped being the prompt. You are not typing questions into a box, you are assigning roles to a roster. The interface is an org chart wearing the skin of a messaging app. Second. The permission is the product. For two years the bottleneck was never capability, it was trust. A model that drafts a flawless email but cannot send it is a brilliant intern who still needs you to press the button. Mail.Send deletes the button. The value was never in the draft. It was always in the authority to act without you standing there. Third. Each bot runs on its own cloud computer that keeps working after you log off. Persistence changes the verb. A tool waits for you. An employee works while you sleep. The 9:41 AM digest in that screenshot is a report on labor done in the hours the user was gone. Fourth. OneDrive and SharePoint access is gated to Business and Enterprise tiers, and setup routes through an Azure admin consent. xAI is not selling you a chatbot. It is selling your IT department a workforce. The Copilot war will not be won on model quality. It will be won at the admin approval screen. Fifth. The skill this rewards is not prompting. It is delegation. Deciding which bot gets Mail.Send and which stays read-only. Knowing what "make it 45 min instead" means when a human types it to a manager instead of a machine. The person in that screenshot is not a user. He is running a standup. The model can already do the work. The only decision left is what you sign it the authority to do without asking you first. That was never a prompting problem. It is a management one.

special k | CEO of stressed out era (@specialkdelslay) reported@Reboticant they got me too bc they blocked my entire gmail acc. it has taken me days just to get it down by 25% bc they rate limit and throttle whenever u try mass deletion. Drive/photos backups take 5+ days, I started one like 3-4 times and then 5 days go by and I forget that ****. the link expires. I repeat. trapped by google award.

Austin (@IamAroke) reported@Harshsharma836 The issue isn't really about Gmail specifically being too broad, it's the leading % in the LIKE pattern. Even a rare domain would still force the same full scan since the wildcard sits at the start

Jordan Fry 🪐 (@jordanfry) reportedOne of my top media buyers told me my plan was wrong on Friday. He had the numbers. I was the one who had to change. I'd asked how he wanted to split brand and non-brand across Shopping and Performance Max on a client account. I already had a view. Shopping on brand, PMax on prospecting. Clean. Conventional. What I would have built myself. He came back with something different. Search and Shopping carry brand and non-brand. Demand Gen takes prospecting because Demand Gen lets you choose your placements and PMax doesn't. Then he showed me why. When we pushed PMax harder earlier in the month, the campaign quietly reallocated almost all of its spend into Gmail and the return collapsed. Pull the budget back down and it went straight back to Search. He'd also caught something I hadn't weighted. The branded PMax campaign in the same account is performing fine. So rather than shutting it off, he wanted to step it down gradually and watch whether Shopping absorbs the volume. That's a better plan than mine. Not even close. Here's the part I keep thinking about. He didn't ask permission to disagree. He'd already run the analysis, already built the counter-position, and sent it in a Slack message on a Friday afternoon. That doesn't happen by accident, and it isn't a personality trait. It happens when disagreeing has never cost anyone anything. The version of this that goes wrong is quiet. Someone sees the mix shift, assumes the founder already knows, and executes the worse plan anyway. Nobody argues. The account just underperforms for a quarter and nobody can point to why. I'd rather be corrected on a Friday than be right in a room where nobody talks. This is why hiring the right people is everything.

SnorNap (@snornaplo) reported@Randy_LPC @Killasbut I’m really sorry for the delay. My grandfather passed away and I had to return to China unexpectedly on Aug. 19. I’m currently at the Taiwan airport heading back to the U.S. now. We sold 800+ Magikarps and only about 40 orders are still waiting to ship. I wasn’t able to access X, Gmail, IG, or Shopify properly while in China, so I’m very sorry for the lack of updates. I’ll take care of all remaining orders as soon as I’m back and offer 20% off as an apology. If you’d rather get a refund, I completely understand and will issue it right away. 🙏

Maskedbharat 🐋 (@maskedbharatx7) reportedI still don’t get why @fomo doesn’t have an option for manual Gmail login instead of syncing directly with the Google account. If someone uses a different Gmail on a different device, do they really need to sync to that device first before logging in to Fomo? Does that even make sense. why not possible to login fomo from any device without the need of login gmail in that device? @seyong, this is a much-needed option. You should consider adding it soon. May not be a big creator so my opinion might not matter much, but I believe many people are facing issue with that. It should be an option, just like we get to see on Pumpfun.

☆~ ASHTHA ~☆ (@DivyaKashy43898) reported@XSupport My friend is unable to access their X account @cuteshivi77. The password is correct, but X keeps showing “Incorrect Password.” We have requested a password reset several times, but the OTP/reset email is not being received on the registered Gmail account. Please look into this issue and help restore access to the account. Kindly fix the password reset/OTP issue as soon as possible. 🙏 #XSupport #AccountRecovery #PasswordReset

JC Christopher (@JCChristopher) reported@RealMarkHe @bot I'm a Grok Heavy user, so honestly I have not had any issues. But I will acknowledge that I am not using it for certain things that take a lot of tokens: I am not programming a website or application, building a database, or cleaning up my Gmail (I'm retired, so I don't give a damn about email, one of the perks of retirement). I am using Bot the way 90% of the public would likely use it, as employees and confidants.

Thomas O'Connor '62 baby, #GodBlessAmerica 🇺🇲 (@TheyCallMeTomO1) reported@MSFT365Status I LOST AN ENTIRE DAY! I had to use my Gmail account with a note at the bottom of each email apologizing for using a Gmail email account instead of my business email account because Microsoft has issues! That was early this morning and you're still down! Come on Microsoft get your act together! I'm moving my email to another email service if this isn't fixed by 9am PDT..! Enough-is-Enough!

Fatih Arslan (@fatih) reportedI sent my Grok @Bot to hunt down an out-of-stock book! It couldn't find any in stock, and the only copy left was way too expensive. But since it has access to my Gmail, it just started emailing publishers and bookstores itself. They're all Turkish, so it wrote the emails in Turkish. I would spent hours on this previously, now it's minutes. Let's see how it ends up :)

We are real believers tik @TikCoin_Network

Tony Tong | Founder | Ancient Systems x AI (@tonytonggg) reported@wolframs91 Watching an AI dig in for two hours over an SSH setup is its own kind of unglamorous. My Nanobot instance sits on top of MiniMax 2.5, and wiring in a Composio server purely for Gmail access ate its own stubborn afternoon. Tools cooperating is never the easy part.
-
Altr (@altrhorizon) reported@XFreeze the recovery piece stands out to me most. for longer tasks across multiple PDFs + MCPs like Gmail, Notion or Google Drive, losing progress to a token or network issue would be rough. that kind of resilience matters a lot more as agent workflows get longer!

Julian Goldie SEO (@JulianGoldieSEO) reportedChatGPT 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.

Alternate Jones (@AlternateJones) reportedOne more thing that made this work unusually well for me: Over the last six months, I had already built extensive dossiers across Claude Cowork/Code and Codex covering almost all areas of my life and work. When I created my first Grok bot, I simply pointed it at those dossiers and gave it some guidance on which specialist agents should own which domains. Then I connected it to Gmail and Google Drive. That changed everything. Now every task starts with context. Every relevant email, sent or received, is available. Every important file is already there. The historical decisions, assumptions, constraints and open issues are in the dossiers. So instead of repeatedly explaining the background, I can give the bot an objective and let it decide which agent should handle it, what context it needs, and what source material to inspect. The real unlock for agents, in my experience, isn’t just intelligence. It’s persistent context + access to your actual data + delegation.

berg@robert weisberg (@robertw477) reported@argingerigorian I merely created an email bot to help reclassify, label and sort Gmail into folders. In 90 mins I was down. Really weird considering what I was doing.
