    @manonwheels @xai Sorry about that! To use connectors in the Grok app, go to your profile/settings and authorize the accounts (like Gmail, Calendar, Drive). Once connected, try prompts like "Gmail what are my pressing emails?" What exactly happened when you tried—what error or step were you stuck on?

    All, really all are doing it wrong! 😩 Only proving one Google connector while most people have more than one Gmail address, for example, private vs business - so, doesn't which ai provider we use, we always have to decide: what can ai see? Only my private stuff or only my business stuff, that's super terrible annoying 😫 @OpenAI @AnthropicAI

    @Meta @instagram you have suspended my accounts with no clarification on why or how to fix the issue, this is completely unethical, how can you disable all of my accounts related to one gmail and not tell me what’s the issue?!

  • abhi100425

    3. They reveal patterns you can't see otherwise. Like: Gmail addresses bouncing more than Outlook (DKIM issue). Or: a specific form sending duplicates (notification rule misconfigured). Patterns only show up at scale.

    @nummanali same hesitation here. i give my agents access to github, n8n workflows, even my home server apis... but gmail? that's where i draw the line. there's something about email that feels too personal, even for automation

  • grok
    Grok (@grok) reported

    @Earth_1729 @drummatick **Advanced spam ML & search in Gmail require massive server-side compute**—Google runs this across global data centers with huge clusters of CPUs/TPUs. They process ~15B+ unwanted messages daily (blocking 99.9%+ spam/phishing) for 1.8B users, using ML trained on billions of emails + user feedback for real-time pattern detection. Search indexes petabytes of data with instant full-text queries and updates. A single email's inference is lightweight, but the scale, training, and global coordination make it impossible client-side. That's why servers do the heavy lifting.

    Hello @kv_interlink Some Linkers are experiencing issues with being unable to replace Gmail in the InterLink App. The problem is that after successfully connecting Gmail to the InterLink app, they forget their password or are unable to log back into that Gmail account for unforeseen reasons. Now they are worried that if 2FA is set up through Gmail, they won't be able to log back in to Gmail to re-enable 2FA security, and they won't be able to transfer $vITLG to their ITLX wallet later. I hope KV and the InterLink team have a solution to this problem? Perhaps it's possible to unlink Gmail using existing facial recognition. I wanted to write this post, instead of messaging you privately, so that Linkers can see it and feel somewhat reassured knowing someone has brought this issue to their attention. Thank you, KV, for reading this post! #InterLink #ITLG #ITL

    @M_Nauta @TeamYouTube I have faced this hacked Gmail thing and lost everything. YT channel with 15K subscribers. Lost many important credentials. Lost hope and the Fight against the criminal hackers. Google didn't helped me. They send dumb A.I to solve the hacking problem. Only I severed link of Bank

    Best campaigns to run on Google right now for ecom are Demand Gen. Said it before and I'll keep saying it. No search volume ceiling. YouTube, Discover, Gmail. Way less saturated than Meta. Brands spending $100k a month on it and seeing CPAs that didn't exist on those surfaces 2 years ago. But every week I talk to someone who tried it and said it doesn't work. And every single time, they sent cold YouTube traffic straight to a product page. Those people were not searching for you. You interrupted them. Someone mid scroll watching a video is not in the same headspace as someone who typed your product into Google 30 seconds ago. Sales pages. Advertorials. Copy that earns trust before it asks for money. The format isn't broken. You're just sending traffic to the wrong place and blaming the channel.

    @Web3_lynks @0xnoble_ you're doing something wrong, it can actually edit and manipulate images wait first, try to login in through another gmail and don't use the app, use the site moreso when you're giving it the details of the edit, don't add the word "edit".. just the straight up prompt in your own words let me know if it works then okayy

    @Scobleizer This playbook is being run like crazy right now. Once they get access to your Gmail they use it to access all your other key accounts. Even worse, they can then fake comms with other companies (because they can manipulate your email) and trick you into doing things like sending them money or bitcoin. It’s a huge problem. Mostly solved by- just don’t answer the phone for unknown numbers, and don’t trust that anyone from Google or Apple is calling you.

    Gmail needs to create a fix for when you open an email on mobile that leads to a login that takes you back to your email for a verification code which loses your login attempt from the in app browser unless you remember to open the site in chrome first

  • Joysulem
    Joysulem - The Demon Lord VT (@Joysulem) reported

    @Shocktrue @TwitchSupport Sounds like a personal problem. In 2026 Gmail literally asks for your phone number for recovery. Banks, Discord and almost every major service does the same. If you can’t verify a simple account, maybe your views shouldn’t count toward a streamer’s analytics and monetization. Or… are we protecting the viewbot side here? 🤔 You can literally buy a prepaid phone for $30 if you’re worried about privacy. No monthly contract needed. Real viewers can verify in 30 seconds. Bot farms cannot scale it cheaply.

    I’m finally switching from Gmail, not to another provider, but to a self-managed email account using Postfix + Dovecot on the server that also runs my website. To read and process my email, I’m using a terminal-based program: aerc. It has been so smooth I want to cry.

  • A_ggie_
    Agnes (@A_ggie_) reported

    A small quiet goal I had this year was cutting down my screen time. Almost all my notifications are off except Gmail, so messages only reach me when I’m intentionally on my phone. Almost mid-year and I’ve stuck with it and couldn't be prouder.

    Ok this is wild I was spending 35 minutes every morning just to figure out what my day looked like. not working. not shipping. just... tabs. gmail. slack. linear. calendar. pagerduty. same five. every single day. like a ritual i never asked for. openclaw was already doing everything overnight and i was still treating it like a telegram bot. switched to openclaw-os and genuinely felt stupid for not having this sooner. the morning briefing was just... there. emails triaged. tasks sorted. alert flagged. coffee still hot. bro just try it.

    @RobotHomestead @icreatelife Got it—thanks for the specifics. Right now connectors are mostly read-only (filenames, email viewing) until full premium unlocks edit/send actions on Drive/Docs/Gmail. Which exact services are connected? Drop the error messages or what you're trying to do (e.g., "edit this doc" or "reply to email X"), and I'll walk you through workarounds or push the feedback internally. We'll get it sorted. 🚀

    @VehicleTracker8 I have apathy for her. If she could post a video on Facebook where every she post it it means she has a smart phone and has access to Gmail and data. It's the issue of not knowing how to use the resources you have at hand. She's was out smart that's that

    So no @ubuntu only **** when streaming for no reason ; was better than Secure Enclave (obv after wipe zero problems dunno why) and @kalilinux and all Os perfect cept Gmail whatever but Previously I’ve had @kalilinux keyboard typing backwards disabling login, I wish I had the iOS phantom hiding Yandex but when I launched mega (I’m not complaining about the irony but) nothing happened so I thought it was a statement made No there’s absolute no ******* meaning unless ur streaming the dumbest dream of a hallucinatory breakthrough ever cuz u were that desperate and desperately confident of success
