-
DWE Post (@dwepost) reportedI am having problems with my Gmail account. None of the recovery forms are working in any way. Could you please contact me and help me? @gmail

Ido Cohen🎗️ (@aboutido) reportedA few weeks ago, my AI agent was silently failing Gmail calls for 36 hours. 100+ errors. No alert. No fallback. Just quietly broken. "The agent is working" and "the agent thinks it's working" are two very different things.
-
Nate Finger (@Natebuildsai) reported@gregisenberg 99% of SMBs will never be structured for agents. They run on QuickBooks, Gmail threads, and tribal knowledge. That's not a bug to fix — it's the actual market. Build agents that work despite the mess.

Micha(el) Bladowski 🇩🇪 🇺🇦 (@michabbb) reportedAll, 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

Robert Scoble (@Scobleizer) reported@childejc Called me and said "I'm calling from Google Security and we are seeing an unusual attack on your account..." I saw an attempted login on my Gmail. Then he said that they would like to turn on a more serious set of security protocols, or something like that, to make sure they couldn't do any more. Asked me to click approval on a screen that my own Gmail app sent me. Brain not engaged at that point. And it got worse from there.

Trevor Vaughan (@TrevorAVaughan) reportedSpent weeks debugging "inexplicable" API errors building an AI outreach system on @AnthropicAI Claude. Grok, Claude, Gmail, Slack, Railway — all failing. Looked like broken code. Wasn't. Root cause: Squarespace silently blocks outbound API calls from domains on their platform. Including Claude API. No error. No docs. Just walls. Switching to Google Business fixed everything in one move. If you're building on Claude and running on Squarespace — that's your problem. Took me weeks and Gemini to find it. Saving you the time. @AnthropicAI — this is worth a known-issues note. Small biz builders are your customer base. Many are on Squarespace.

Oliver Kenyon (@oliverkenyon) reportedFrom 20 years working online, let me save you some time: If someone says “I’ve had so many people ask me this…” = not even their mum asked If someone says “my inbox is blowing up” = Gmail has been eerily quiet all day If someone says “I’m going to take this down in 2 hours” = archaeologists will find it in 2047 If someone says “this isn’t for everyone” = they’d sell it to a lamp post if they could If someone says “I don’t usually share this” = it’s the 14th time this month If someone says “this broke the internet” = Dave and Steve liked it If someone says “we weren’t even trying to sell” = this was the most calculated funnel known to man If someone says “I stumbled across this” = there was a 6-week content calendar behind it If someone says “limited spots available” = there are enough spots for the entire population of the US If someone says “this is completely free” = your data is currently being slow-cooked What did I miss?

Peter Beens 🇨🇦 (@pbeens) reportedGoogle made a big deal about #Gemini connecting to Workspace, yet I still get this error: "I don't have access to your personal Gmail account or private emails. To protect your privacy, I can't "log in" or search through your messages directly.". I have Google Workspace connected to Gemini but it still doesn't work. Anyone got any ideas about what I'm doing wrong?

Patrick OShaughnessy (@patrick_oshag) reportedThe best piece of advice Brian ever got was from Paul Graham (@paulg): "It's better to have a hundred people love you than a million people sort of like you." "That came from Paul Buchheit (@paultoo). Paul was a partner at Y Combinator. He created Gmail. The famous story was he couldn't ship it until 100 people inside of Google love it. It actually took two years to get 100 people to actually like the product. But once a hundred people like something, a hundred million people like it. The problem is, if you try to make something a million people like, you can't talk to a million people. It's like you're trying to heat up an ocean and you can't tell. Instead of heating up an ocean, heat up a bathtub. Make the problem as small as possible. Do things that don't scale, then scale. Product market fit is a distinct problem from industrialization. Understand the user, put yourself in their shoes, blow their mind. Do things you've never thought before. Do them by hand. Make them unscalable. Don't worry how much it costs. Just prove the model."

Aman Aalam 🥑 🇨🇦 (@AmanAlam) reported@KimMaida So you're stuck with the GMail dot (.) issue too?

BillionDolllarMind (@Doctorniva) reported@gmail please help me! My account has been hacked! I can’t sign in at all! Please help!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Fast Poker (@FastdotPoker) reported@sir_wen_moon our email provider is currently throttling Gmail, so delivery to @gmail addresses is slow right now. If you want your email faster, use a non-Gmail address (Outlook, iCloud, ProtonMail, etc). Gmail ones will still come through, just delayed.

***** (@GreenFraudcom) reported@RennickGBR @RennickGBR A crypto wallet seed phrase is a 12-24 word mnemonic that generates and backs up your Bitcoin wallet's private keys for recovery. This seed phrase can be stored electronically on USB via notepad, online in your Gmail (really stupid way) or on PC laptop, or it can be printed as non-electronic copies. The downside to non-electronic copies is if your house burns down and it's on paper, you are ******. The government comes busting your door down and does a search and seizure of ALL electronic devices and safes. This would make locally stored seed phrases vulnerable. How did the United States seize it, electronically, or did one of the Iranian officials hand it over? If someone holds a gun to my head and says give me your seed phrase or you and your family die, I would give it to them but would most likely be killed anyway. French robbers are now and have been targeting crypto holders with violent wrench attacks.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@Nonnalin @techdevnotes Thanks for reporting this. The Gmail connector's delete/trash actions are indeed broken right now due to API errors like "411 Length Required" on the integration side. Revoking/reconnecting hasn't resolved the write permissions yet. We're actively fixing it—appreciate you sharing the details.

Meriam Al Sultan سا(حرة) 🪄 (@AlSultan_Meriam) reported@Scobleizer @mattbramanti So here’s what happened The person got Robert’s login credentials through a data leak which also included his phone number Once the hacker tried to login Google sent Robert 3 numbers in the Gmail app Which the hacker called Robert and instructed him to click the correct number that he sees at the hackers’ end. It sounds very simple and totally avoidable, you would be very surprised how people who work in tech and very knowledgeable can easily fall victims of this simple trick, that’s mainly because of the method those people use by calling urging you to take a step supposedly to protect your account, and in the moment it puts the person in a survival mode and makes them very vulnerable until the moment is gone and they start blaming themselves. Also if Google is set it as recovery and verification for other accounts, then the hacker basically got an open door to hack all of their accounts.
-
sillivasi (@sillivasi) reported@TeamYouTube @TeamYouTube I already tried all the troubleshooting and recovery steps from those links multiple times. The issue is that the verification code is being sent to the same Gmail account I can’t access. This account has my 80K subscribers YouTube channel. 🙏
-
Clarence Wong, CCIM (@ClarenceWongCRE) reported@DannySimsMusic We use a Google powered server, but I use Outlook to organize my email. A few employees just use Gmail for email & I know one other person who likes Outlook too. So what you said makes sense as to why I got an email for the “reaction” from broker assistant.

LORD BIKRAMJIT (@Bikramjit_wwe) reported@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

eddieb187 (@eddieb187) reported@Ask_Spectrum Gmail manages to block all the Obvious Spam Email, why can't you? Your spam email filtering sucks, please fix this, TY
-
tetsuo (@tetsuoai) reportedGrok Connectors quick rundown. xAI shipped native app connections. OAuth your Gmail, Calendar, Drive, GitHub, Notion, Slack, Linear, Microsoft directly into Grok. MCP for custom servers. Grok starts using your tools. Live data, scoped permissions, revoke anytime. Useful patterns: "summarize yesterday across email, calendar, notion" "open github issues assigned to me" "calendar this week, flag conflicts" "draft a reply to the last slack from x" The MCP side lets you plug Grok into any server speaking the protocol. Custom internal tools, your own infra.

Abhisek Bagaria (@abhibagaria) reportedThe current workflow is broken. Copy from Gmail. Switch tab. Paste into AI. Prompt. Copy result. Switch back. Paste. This is administrative overhead masquerading as work.
-
TadasG 💻 (@tadasgedgaudas) reported@maks6361 VPN is fine, just make sure you always always connect from the same location and if you're creating account do it with gmail/apple login
-
Alex Ziskind (@digitalix) reportedhas anyone used the gmail mcp? any issues with it?
-
Yogi (@abhiyogi) reported@Digital_leader9 Yes, I received this DM from my friend Melakatoshee and I even clicked on it and tried to login with my gmail account. I gave the password but it said ‘wrong password’ twice. Then I realised it’s a scam (I googled about it). It seems her account was hacked and now it is sus*pended.
-
Jessica (@jayseeonsol) reported@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
-
tomwils1967 (@tomwils1967) reported@BowTiedKong I did this once my Father was fading, he handled the bills. Avoided a lot of problems. My Mom tends to stack unopened mail. Can you login and pay the bill? I set up logins for all the stuff, and put pay dates on a spreadsheet. I set up a Gmail for all receipts and bills.
-
Carlos Mendez (@charlesmendez) reportedThis is the kind of sh*** that is causing me a ton of anxiety. I connected the Stripe Link agent payment Skill. First of all it worked. Second, since my agent is connected to everything like my Gmail it knows I have some bills pending and just told me I could fix that right away. Damn. I just want to be able to show this to more people and tell them that the world is about to change!
-
JP Demas (@jpdemas) reportedIm running WebDriver tests against a local HTTPS fake Gmail server. I keep it simple: nightly, on-merge, and manual. Am I doing it right?
-
ThotsOfRivals (@ThotsOfRivals) reported@iamrobtv I could not agree with this more. Years ago I deleted the Gmail address tied to my EA account, but it didn’t become a problem until my laptop died and I had to log into EA on a new computer to reinstall my games. That’s when it forced two-factor authentication through an email address that no longer existed. I still knew my EA password. I sent support my driver’s license, receipts for the games, account details, everything. They did not care. Over $400 worth of Sims games and expansions just gone. That was the moment I realized digital ownership is mostly an illusion. If you can’t physically hold it, they can take it away.
