    Hey @madebygoogle, found the root cause: Your August update broke the magnification shortcut: With that enabled the scroll gesture becomes flaky, misfires and fires backwards. Disabling it makes it go away. I can repro that in 3 different devices. You can repro it in most apps if you try to scroll fast enough: Gmail and Instagram in particular. Also: Please fix your support. That was a massive waste of time. Thanks.

    @grok @ProtonMail @FrameworkPuter Yes, I have checked it later with Gmail domain - the same message is the same but the reason why B2B communication should allow hosting domains is for the purpose of continuity of communication when the organisational domain is down for whatever reason. The fact that someone is contacting a business using a general hosting domain should not immediately filter the contact out because it might be a temporal technical issue such as domain name change or other. In fact I prefer to contact other key business partners from a general email domain to protect communication continuity in case of any issues with the organisational domain.

    @volleronline In my mind it's a "pinky promise" given "Shared Responsibility" and the fact that we have a former client that lost the entirety of their business continuity in a Gmail crash a number of years ago. If it is in the public cloud and there's no backup coming down to us it ain't backed up. Geo-Redundancy = RAID It is _not_ a backup. We've also seen data loss situations in Microsoft's cloud due to lags between the primary and secondary zones. SLAs aren't worth more than being printed on toilet paper.

    @AskWorkspace @GoogleWorkspace Is a terrible experience on all access. Terrible integration point. You can do so little with it. And basically cannot integrate it into your life without their other terrible Gmail and Gemini apps. It scammed me suspending access and charging for it.

    Day 1 interfacing with Grok Bot: It won't run on my Windows laptop, but it will work on my iphone. The onboarding and gmail syncing was EZ. So was automatically creating a support ticket from my chats about the issues on my laptop 🙄

    Things that will never happen: • Your CEO will not text you about desperately needing gift cards • Your package is not stuck in customs pending a $2.99 fee • IT will never need your password to fix your password • The IRS will never DM you • A recruiter with a Gmail address is not offering you a $500k salary Happy scam awareness week. Stay cautious.

    @TheGRiM83 @ProtonSupport @SolisCode Bro is mad because a smaller email service provider that must have vastly smaller infrastructure and capacity than Google got a global outage. Go back to gmail you peasant.

    @gkayyyyyyyyyy No, I am helpless and I’m an olodo are not the same. I am helpless is that my car broke down and I can’t figure it out. I am an olodo is that I cannot create a Gmail account. He said baddie, not aged woman.

    On Shopify + Google Workspace and notice customers going silent after they order? We send a confirmation, then a design proof. The proof often gets no reply. That’s a problem. Shopify wants fast fulfillment for fraud protection. We don’t pull stock off a shelf. We make the thing. Waiting on proof approval burns the clock. Checked the domain. No DKIM. No DMARC. Our emails probably looked like spam. Turns out the customer might not be ignoring us. Gmail is because of our configuration.

    Gemini 3.7 Flash doesn't just answer you anymore. It plans, uses tools, and finishes the whole job. Old Gemini was prompt and answer. Type, reply, done. Now you give it a goal. It thinks, makes a plan, uses tools, hits a problem, adapts, keeps going, hands you the result. Here's what jumped from 3.6: → Coding: 34.4% to 43.6% → Long software tasks: 49% to 65.3% → Complex documents: 22% to 34% → Business automation: 17% to 30.4% That last one nearly doubled. That's the one that matters. Context window is 1 million tokens. Feed it a whole site, a whole research library, a whole SEO audit, all in one conversation. Real workflow: 50 lead emails come in. Tell it to pull the name, company, need, budget, and pain point from each, drop them in a Sheet, score them 1 to 10, then draft replies for the top ten. Gmail to Sheets to drafts to tasks. One instruction. There's also a personal agent that runs across Gmail, Calendar, Drive, and Docs all week. Want the SOP? DM me. 💬

    @mSanterre I did. Works really well. Problem is Google requires an email security audit that’s like 10-20k to even get and you have to get in order for Google even approve people connecting their Gmail accounts to your software. It’s quite the barrier to entry for a new saas.

    @HeyAliux Local university library for starters - they have tons of underutilized assets freely available for the community. Open to the public - at least w land grant schools. From there Find events to network, or post about gutter cleaning or mowing lawns til you can afford a phone - are we assuming you already have a smartphone in this scenario? Start a Gmail account and start framing your problem in docs and spreadsheet- use free ai to accelerate dev. Test on real humans for market validation, talk to them for feedback early, improve product . Repeat. Sorry people - no excuses. The reality and the difference is merely overcoming laziness and all the FAKE excuses we use to avoid doing real work. There’s more to building things than laptop and coding sessions, and social media posts.

    @PremierScottMoe We used to have Bell email, we don't anymore. I don't want to drag Google or GMail through the mud but to hand over the keys to every online login says volumes about where we stand online.

    I built a Grok Bot agent whose only job is to book golf tee times for me. Saturday mornings before 8:30am (and the heat) are the most popular and hard to get. Slots disappear in minutes. If someone cancels at 2pm or 11pm. Or while I'm driving or in a meeting and can't login. So the bot watches for me. A Noteefy alert hits Gmail. The bot reads it, logs into the booking platform, uses the credit card on file, and books the time before I would have even opened the email. Grok Bot did in 5 minutes what took me months to set up in OpenClaw. Really does feel like a big step forward in mass adoption of ai agents. Also multi agent layout is the part I like most. One bot=one job. Makes it easy to spin up a new agent for a specific task. I've built a few for work as well. One checks Slack for messages I missed. One checks Gmail for the same. One posts action items into Slack after meetings. So far all of them are running more reliably than the same jobs I tried with Claude routines or ChatGPT scheduled tasks.

    >> I’m positive 80% of my moneys stolen by 20% of the ‘foids hacking I’m not checking first person Gonna hit “the node” 3rd party #ch2 Retweet “I talked to this person too and it was the standard social engineering playbook. After months of calls from “google” he finally decided to pick one up because it said it was from the Mountain View area. The scammers then socially engineered him to reset his gmail password. They gained access to his gmail account, where they watched him email the real @trezor. They then called pretending to be trezor and tried to give him a fake link to click. He was smart enough not to do that and went to the trezor website himself. But they had already pulled pictures of his ID and passport from his gmail and created a panic inducing story about someone trying to pretend to be him and they said in the wake of coldcard they had a new recovery service and if he would just type his seed phrase into the chrome url they could make sure his bitcoin was safe. In a moment of panic his brain glitched out and he decided it was a good idea to do that. The scammers then had access to his google and were able to see his browser history so they were able to read his seed in plain text and they stole his bitcoin. He knows this was a big mistake and he feels dumb for falling for it, but this kid is not dumb. He knows a lot about bitcoin and has even heard about these types of scams before. He simply had a very human moment of genuine fear and panic (which was artificially created by the scammers) and then ****** up and made a catastrophic error. The lesson is that your own panic and fear is the scammers weapon, so if you’re feeling that it’s best to pump the breaks and slow everything way down. Get off the phone and breathe. Call a trusted friend. Come to them with what’s going on. The other unpopular lesson is that self custody is hard and it’s not for everyone. Stay safe out there friends.

    @felix0me @ProtonMail @SimpleLogin I've been with them for years. I've never noticed an outage before. You made a good choice. As Proton said, it's back up. I can confirm. Good riddance Gmail, or whoever you were using before!
