  Started this channel 2 days ago and it's going to be monetized in the next 14 days. The trust score is the entire game. If you miss it, you spend 3 months uploading into a black hole. Here is the exact system: Step 1. Pick the right niche. Do not copy the channels that already blew up. Find a niche that is working but underserved. Look for creators posting 1 to 2 times a week where you can go daily and take their share of the algorithm push. Step 2. Use aged accounts. Buy 3 of them. Test the same niche across all 3 in parallel. One of the 3 will blow up. If all 3 flatline within the first 6 to 10 uploads, switch the niche. The warmup on each aged account is a 5 day process before you ever upload. Login to the proxy. Login to the gmail. Log out. Wait 24 hours. Day 1. Watch 2 to 3 videos in the niche. Day 2. Watch 4 to 6 videos. Day 3. Watch 4 to 6 videos. Day 4. Watch 4 to 6 videos. Day 5. Watch 4 to 6 videos. Day 6. Upload the test video. The accounts with a good trust score hit 500+ impressions in the first 24 to 48 hours. These accounts are gold. You can validate the niche on your first video and know if the concept works.

  @cr3ghost I obviously had no idea this was happening or at least not at this extreme level when I switched to linux full time years ago, but the same basic underlying rationale is why I stopped using github for private hosting when microsoft bought them and why I won't use vscode. I started looking at google in the same way last year. A little over a year ago I largely de-googled my life. I was doing research into their sketchy moderation system on youtube and it involved actively violating their tos since there is literally no other way to do it. Their tos is worded such that any kind of research like that leaves one risking their google account. That was when I realized how fragile my online life had become due entirely to excessive trust placed in google. I still use gmail because I've had it forever but nothing I care about (knowingly) touches google's servers. I own the domains that use for the emails and while I don't host the email servers (use proton) I could host my own email server if needed.

  You don't have a deliverability problem. You have a dead-weight problem. Every subscriber who hasn't opened in 90 days is a vote telling Gmail you're ignorable. Cut them. Inbox placement follows engagement, not list size.

  I just found this hidden tactic @gmail uses to save me from a bad email. The “Undo” button. Turns out that the Undo button isn’t undoing your email because technically, there is no way you can undo your sent email. So, Gmail pulled the greatest move: Instead of immediately transmitting the email to the recipient's mail server, Gmail waits for a small amount of time (5, 10, 20, or 30 seconds). And then if you feel like you have made a mistake, you can just undo the mistake by clicking undo option. Gmail just simply cancels the scheduled send. The email would have never left Google's servers. This is genius UX. Here are 3 main things you don’t notice in that UX: First of all, it makes user wait for a very small time. Because sending a wrong email isn’t something a sane human will do often. They do it maybe once in a while. That’s why they have that schedule for a very short period of time. Then there is that small toast notification at the bottom. It doesn’t take the entire view. It just is a small notification below. It supports the user's primary task while quietly preserving reversibility. It doesn’t compete for attention. Because if you sent the right email, your mental model will be next email and you will ignore the notification. But if you have sent the wrong one, you will search for any way to reverse. And the toast notification is enough for you to notice. Also, they have intentionally avoided a confirmation step. Imagine your email asking confirmation like do you want to surely send this email? every time you send an email. What if you send 80 emails a day. Gmail might not have been this popular if they did that move. Instead, they choose to just have an undo option. This is a great example of UX which is invisible to the user, but delivers insane value. Image: Google Blog

  I just replaced $200/month in SaaS with one internal tool. New lead hits Gmail. It auto-tags, updates our pipeline in Sheets, drafts the proposal with AI, and fires an SMS follow-up via Twilio. Built the whole thing in one afternoon in Lovable. People still think Lovable is just for pretty UI. It's not. You can wire up Gmail, Sheets, Twilio, anything. Build tools that actually replace your stack. I use connectors almost daily now. On client work, agency automation, side projects. I finally wrote down the entire system. Every shortcut, every mistake I made, the stuff I wish I knew on day one.

  🚨 Opera GX flaw let malicious sites auto-install mods and steal data from visited pages Researchers found a flaw in Opera GX that allowed a malicious website to silently install a GX Mod without clicks or approval prompts. The issue turned Opera GX’s cosmetic mod system into a universal CSS injection path, letting attacker-controlled CSS follow the victim across websites. In a proof of concept, researchers reconstructed a signed-in user’s full Gmail address from a single visit by leaking page data piece by piece through CSS requests. Opera says there is no evidence the flaw was exploited in the wild and patched the issue in Opera GX version 130.0.5847.89. No CVE was assigned, but Opera’s bug bounty team rated it P1 and paid the maximum $5,000 award. “Just styling” is a lot less harmless when it can follow you across the browser.

  Ven Venkata | Email Marketing (@0Venkata) reported 17 minutes ago

  Inbox placement is not the same thing as delivery rate. Delivery rate is what your ESP reports. It measures whether the email was accepted by the receiving server, not bounced, not rejected outright. Most ESPs show delivery rates of 98-99% and teams read that as "our emails are reaching people." Delivery to a spam folder counts as delivered. Delivery to a promotions tab counts as delivered. An email that sits unopened in a folder the recipient never checks counts as delivered in the ESP dashboard. Inbox placement is the number that actually matters: what percentage of delivered emails reached the primary inbox versus spam, promotions, or another folder. This is not in your ESP. Your ESP doesn't know where the email ended up after the receiving server accepted it. Google Postmaster shows inbox placement for Gmail recipients specifically. GlockApps and Mail-Tester run seed tests that simulate placement across multiple providers before a send. A 99% delivery rate and a 60% inbox placement rate is not a good outcome. It's 40% of sends reaching a folder where they have a meaningful chance of never being seen, reported as a 99% success. The metric your ESP leads with is not the metric that determines whether your email program works.

  HERMES AGENT NOW RUNS MULTIPLE SECRET VAULTS SIDE BY SIDE. BITWARDEN + 1PASSWORD BUILT IN. ANY OTHER VAULT AS A PLUGIN. your API keys, tokens, and credentials no longer live in a single .env file. pull them from dedicated secret managers that rotate, audit, and encrypt for you. @NousResearch @Bitwarden HOW IT WORKS: secrets resolve at process startup. after .env loads, before Hermes reads credentials. order of precedence: 1. .env file (baseline) 2. secret sources override .env values 3. mapped sources (explicit VAR→reference) beat bulk sources 4. first source to claim a variable wins Hermes tracks provenance for every secret: "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY (from Bitwarden)" you always know where each credential came from. BUILT-IN SOURCES: BITWARDEN (bulk shape): dumps all secrets from a project folder. set BITWARDEN_ACCESS_TOKEN in .env. Hermes pulls everything else from the vault. 1PASSWORD (mapped shape): explicit mapping of env vars to vault references: secrets: onepassword: enabled: true env: ANTHROPIC_API_KEY: "op://vault/anthropic/api-key" OPENAI_API_KEY: "op://vault/openai/api-key" mapped sources beat bulk on contested variables. 1Password claims are stronger than Bitwarden dumps. RUN BOTH AT ONCE: secrets: sources: [onepassword, bitwarden] onepassword: enabled: true env: ANTHROPIC_API_KEY: "op://vault/anthropic/api-key" bitwarden: enabled: true 1Password handles your explicitly mapped keys. Bitwarden fills in everything else. conflict warnings tell you when both claim the same variable. BUILD YOUR OWN VAULT PLUGIN: any secret manager, password manager, OS keystore, or custom script can become a Hermes secret source. ~/.hermes/plugins/my-vault/ ├── plugin.yaml └── __init__.py implement one method: fetch(). return a dict of {ENV_VAR: value}. Hermes handles precedence, conflicts, and env writes. your plugin never touches os.environ directly. never raises exceptions. never prompts for input. the framework enforces security. SECURITY BY DESIGN: → fetch() never raises (errors go in result.error) → fetch() never prompts (startup runs in non-TTY: gateway, cron, Docker) → subprocess calls use run_secret_cli() with minimal allowlisted env (Hermes holds every credential by startup. never hand that to a child process.) → protected bootstrap tokens: no source can overwrite your vault auth vars → per-source wall-clock timeout (default 120s, configurable) → stdin closed on all subprocess calls (prompting helpers fail fast) → no shell=True anywhere WHY THIS MATTERS FOR MULTI-AGENT SETUPS: 8 profiles. 8 sets of credentials. API keys for Anthropic, OpenAI, Grok, DeepSeek, OpenRouter. MCP tokens for Gmail, Calendar, Slack. Stripe keys for payments. managing all of this in .env files = one leak away from disaster. with vault integration: → credentials rotate automatically → audit trail shows who accessed what → keys never exist as plaintext on disk → revoke one key in the vault, all profiles update at restart one config change. every profile pulls from the vault. Learm how to replace your entire team with 8 hermes agents 👇

  Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Grok agree on almost nothing. They all quietly agreed on MCP. Here's the part nobody's telling you: there are 11,000+ MCP servers live right now, and fewer than 5% make a single dollar. The plumbing is built. The money isn't picked up yet. MCP is basically USB-C for AI. Before it, connecting an AI to your tools meant hand-wiring a custom integration every single time. Now you build one small server and every major AI can plug into it — Gmail, your database, Notion, any API. And you don't even need to be a real engineer anymore. You describe the tool, Claude or ChatGPT writes most of the server, you ship it in a weekend. The playbook is stupidly simple: → Find a boring workflow someone repeats every week → Build one sharp MCP server that kills it → Free tier for reach, paid tier for revenue → Charge per use, per seat, or per outcome Servers that actually solve something are pulling $500–3K/mo. Some hit $10K in six weeks. Built once, sold on repeat. The window where "understands MCP + ships one tool" is rare won't stay open long. The marketplace is empty. Be the one who fills it.

  10 Email Marketing Trends That Will Define 2026 Over the past few years, we've worked with 100+ ecommerce brands across every revenue stage. Some patterns are becoming impossible to ignore. These aren't predictions. They're the strategies the best brands are already using to stay ahead. Here's the condensed version. 1. Human-Sounding Emails Are Winning AI-generated emails are flooding inboxes, and they all have the same polished, soulless, "unlock your potential" energy. Subscribers are tuning them out. The emails that are cutting through right now feel like a real person wrote them. Short sentences, conversational tone, a founder sharing something personal, an opinion that's slightly polarizing. This isn't anti-AI. It's about using AI as a tool, not a replacement for your brand voice. The human touch is what makes someone open email #47 from your brand instead of archiving it. 2. Retention Thinking Over Email Marketing Thinking For a long time, email marketers were hired to do one thing: send emails that generate revenue. Design a template, write copy, hit send, check the dashboard. That era is fading. The email marketers creating the most value in 2026 think like retention strategists. They understand the P&L, they know the CAC and payback period, they think about cohort analysis and product adoption rates—not just open rates and click rates. When you operate this way, you stop being "the email person" and become a strategic partner who solves real business problems. 3. Plain Text Emails as a Strategic Weapon Design emails still have their place. But plain text emails from the founder are consistently outperforming graphic-heavy campaigns for education, re-engagement, and personal updates. Three reasons: Better deliverability. They're lighter, and inbox providers favor them. More authentic. They feel human in a world drowning in polished marketing. They stand out. They look different from everything else in the inbox. The smart move is mixing both into your calendar. Design for product highlights and promotions. Plain text for founder stories, education, and personal check-ins. The contrast keeps things fresh. 4. Product Adoption Flows Over Sales Sequences Post-purchase used to be: thank you, cross-sell, review request. The entire sequence was designed to extract more money as fast as possible. The 2026 approach is completely different. The best brands are building post-purchase flows that help customers succeed with the product first. How to use it. When to use it. What to expect. Common mistakes to avoid. Because if someone doesn't use your product consistently, they don't see results. And if they don't see results, they churn. No amount of clever cross-sell emails will save a customer who never opened the bottle. 5. Zero-Party Data 2.0 Collecting zero-party data through your pop-up isn't new. How brands are using it has evolved. The old approach: Ask a question, store the answer, maybe personalize the welcome flow. That was ZPD 1.0. ZPD 2.0 is using that data across your entire business. When 57% of your customers tell you they struggle with a specific problem, that's not just an email segmentation insight. That's business intelligence. It should influence what products you develop, what hooks your ads use, and what copy goes on your product pages. Your pop-up is a market research engine, not just a list growth tool. 6. Micro-Commitment Flows When someone commits to a small action, they're significantly more likely to follow through with a bigger one. The best brands are embedding micro-commitments throughout their flows. We tested this with a supplement brand. We made subscribers "activate" their recurring discount by completing a short survey, even though every subscriber gets the discount by default. The group that claimed it had significantly higher LTV and repurchase rate. Why? Because when people put effort into claiming something, they value it more. That psychological investment translates directly into better retention. 7. Billing Reminder Optimization If you're a subscription brand, this single email might be the highest-leverage thing you can improve. Most brands send: "Your card will be charged in 3 days." That's basically an invitation to cancel. You're leading with cost instead of value. The reframe: "Your next delivery ships in 3 days, and here's the free gift we included." That shifts the psychology from "I'm losing money" to "I'm receiving something." We've seen up to 30% lower subscription churn with this approach. It's also one of the best moments to present a one-click upsell while the customer is already mentally prepared for the delivery. 8. Deliverability-First Strategy With Gmail and Yahoo tightening their filtering, deliverability has moved from "something to keep an eye on" to the foundation everything else sits on. A deliverability-first strategy means you don't build your email program and look at deliverability later. You design the entire strategy around it from the start. Authentication before you send a single email. Monthly list cleaning as non-negotiable. Sending to engaged segments instead of blasting. Monitoring spam rates weekly. Every decision—how often to send, what to send, and who to send to—should be filtered through one question: Will this help or hurt my inbox placement? 9. AI as a Partner, Not a Replacement This brings the AI conversation full circle. AI is a terrible replacement for strategic thinking. But it's an incredible accelerator for execution. Use AI to write email copy in minutes. Use it to generate a month's worth of campaign ideas. Use it to analyze hundreds of subject lines and uncover patterns humans would miss. But the human always makes the strategic decisions, the creative calls, and the judgment calls about what's right for the brand. AI handles the heavy lifting. You steer the ship. 10. Optimization Over Aesthetics A beautiful email is useless if it doesn't convert. This mindset has become dominant among the best email marketers. Compress every image so emails load fast. Make sure the above-the-fold section communicates the entire offer before anyone scrolls. Design mobile-first. Test in dark mode. Check rendering across Gmail, Outlook, and Apple Mail. Track the metrics that actually matter, not just Klaviyo attributed revenue. The brands generating the most revenue per subscriber aren't the ones with the prettiest emails. They're the ones where every email is built to perform.
