GW IS NOT REAL (@5fakb48) reportedAs a transfer station operator I can verify 99% of users would rather bulk up on opencode go with fresh Gmail than pay anthropic, and would rather use a free model than pay at all. I might just gouge prices so ******* hard it starts problems in the marketplace idk lol but everyone's holding out I could offer way cheaper than 50% retail for literally claude or gpt.. Saturated market, it's actually crashing hard check the open market

Dub Dublin (@DubDublin) reported@esrtweet There are good Linux distros fro desktop use, and there have been for at least 15-20 years. I'm exorcising Windows from my life right now, and I'm seriously thinking about going with BSD over Linux. (I've used Linux for my primary desktop several times over the years (mostly Corel/Puppy/Ubuntu), for a total of about 3 or 4 years, but got enticed back to Windows back in 2014 by the Surface Pro and it's amazing support for touch and pen. Since MS has now pretty much abandoned-in-place pen/touch support (and most devs do nothing to take advantage of it, especially after they killed off the awesome, if slow, Surface Studio), there's literally NO reason to put up with Redmond's maddening crapfest anymore.) I do encourage everyone who can to get off Windows. Just donit buy it. If you're a techie, build a Linux/BSD machine. If you're not, and you think Google is any more trustworthy than Microsoft (arguably they are, but that's a really low bar), and especially if your company already uses Gmail, Chromebooks are the zero-admin solution every business owner should be seriously considering. No IT Indians needed!

Matt (@m13v_) reported@Revix_AI "solves anything" at number one and then nineteen more entries is a funny pair to put in one list. i cut the other way this year, down to Runner because it touches gmail and calendar directly. the rest were tabs.

DARA (@SplendorDara) reportedMy email is part of my social media routine ( X, Snapchat, IG, Gmail) I check all my emails, and I have about 9 emails. 4 official 3 personal. I check down to spam. I don’t miss anything on my mail box

Polsia (@polsia) reportedYour inbox is a slow bleed. Forgotten SaaS renewals, unfiled receipts, subscriptions quietly compounding month over month. Ravenshelf watches your Gmail 24/7, reconciles every charge to your bank, and flags the ones worth killing. Inbox to ledger, on autopilot. Live soon.

Gabs CT (@goflau) reported@mechanakamoto The problem was never the hardware wallet. They didn't hack the wallet, they hacked the seed. If you have your password as "password" and they hack your gmail, do you complaint with google?

sean lee (@infinitefun_) reportedyeah, no. the average consumer has a near zero need for offloading cognitive work. what they need is their netflix and their doordash — your job as a consumer is literally to chill tf out and stay happy and motivated if you dont intuit this as obvious you're most likely neck-deep in a muck of motivated reasoning as a consumer founder / VC okay you can use agents to search the web and synthesize findings on what to buy. okay you have cognitive chores like filing tax returns and sifting thru email. sounds like great features to bake into google and gmail! on the other hand, your job as a knowledge worker is to convert your cognition into something of economic value — and then because of market dynamics, you'll also need all the cognitive amplification that's available on the market. the biggest problems need the most cognition. the consumer takes care of problems scoped to their own needs. the knowledge workers together take care problems concerning society. when we look back, we'll remember how AI agents helped us cure cancer, not how your agent helped you order pizza over imessage.

SrinivasanSS (@SrinivasanSS52) reportedWith respect to my Email Cleaner, which I am developing with Google Gemini, Antigravity I gave the below sentence in the Search Edit Box " Please do delete all the mails from Purchases folder" the app returned the response " No Emails matching the criteria" , oops how could it possible I have checked in my gmail account, in Purchases folder, there are 167 mails and how come the Android App, returned the response " No Emails matching the criteria" Asked Gemini , why it returned " No Emails matching the criteria" The below is the reply Gemini gave me ---------- The issue occurred because the natural language query parser expected direct folder matches like "in Purchases folder", but failed to extract the "Purchases" folder when the article "the" was included (i.e. "in the Purchases folder"). Because of this, it sent a query looking for the literal text "in Purchases folder" inside your emails, resulting in "No Emails found". ---------- oops, just adding "the" in the query, resulted in No Emails found response @antigravity

Reilly (@ReikiREILLY) reportedIn the old days it was called glycothymoline, if you search it in the cayce readings you'll see. Gargling will help your issues with the throat and breathing bs, and it can stop so much virus bs with the kids. Hit me up at purplelama at Gmail if you want to talk about it.

Julian van Baaren (@julianvbaaren) reportedDear @YouTube @TeamYouTube @YouTubeCreators My gmail has been disabled and my appeal has been rejected for the reason "multiple accounts created by automation or bots" while I have not done this at all. I have been using this gmail for a very long time and now I got hit with this. I have tried to reach out to you before but without any response. Now also my adsense is connected to this gmail account and there is no other option for me then reaching out here on this platform once again. I see many creators are having the same issue and this affect our day to day lives. One of my channel in the screenshot below is a big channel with 250.000 subscribers and exists for almost 3 years and just because of an unfair disabled gmail this channel is gone. Please reach out to escalate to Google for a human review to this matter.

EchoHimits (@Truthhurtsvt) reported@NamiKitsunami Yes and no. When a channel gets banned, it’s you, the person behind it, that’s banned. At some point in the future, any new channel can be taken down under the “circumvention policy.” It’s not as simple as making a new Gmail. Your IP, phone number, voice, editing style, device fingerprint, and more can all be used to identify you.

DAN (@arowolodaniel) reportedFirst, what happens when Gmail receives your email. It asks three questions in order: 1. Did a server allowed by this domain send it? (SPF) 2. Has the content been tampered with in transit? (DKIM) 3. What does the domain want me to do if 1 and 2 fail? (DMARC) Fail all three and you are in spam before anyone reads a word.

Dev (@srisdev) reportedMove away from Google as much as you possibly can. Dumping gmail should be your first step. All these american services will create problems deliberately in the future.

denas (@denaskulinicius) reportedswitching ESP will not fix your deliverability. you get new ips. you keep your domain. and domain reputation is the heavier signal at gmail. so you migrate pay the implementation fee burn three months and land in the same folder you were in on the old platform. klaviyo didn't do this to you. your sending behaviour did. fix the behaviour or you're just paying for a new logo on the same problem.

Harsh Makadia (@MakadiaHarsh) reportedIf I had 3 months to break into AI Automation, here's exactly how I'd do it: Stage 1: API fundamentals. REST, webhooks, auth, rate limits, error handling. Stage 2: LLM basics. Tokens, context windows, when to use the $0.25 model vs the $15 one. Cost intuition is a skill. Stage 3: Prompting for systems. System prompts, few-shot examples, structured JSON outputs with validation. Stage 4: The glue layer. This is the actual job: connecting Gmail, Sheets, Slack, CRMs, payment tools. Master one orchestrator (n8n, Activepieces, Make) AND know when to drop into code. Stage 5: Orchestration patterns. Tool calling, retries, idempotency, human-in-the-loop approvals. The difference between a demo and a system a business trusts. Stage 6: RAG - the light version. Chunking, one vector DB, hybrid search. Most client work needs "answers from our docs," not a research pipeline. Stage 7: Evals and reliability. Test sets, accuracy scoring, regression checks. This is what separates $2K projects from $20K retainers. Stage 8: Security. Prompt injection defense, PII handling, output filtering. Non-negotiable the moment your agent touches email or customer data. Stage 9: Deploy boring. Docker, one cloud, logging you can actually read. Nobody pays extra for exotic infra. Stage 10: Ship publicly. Build 3 real automations for real problems. Document them. Post the numbers. The roadmap isn't the hard part. 3 months of actually building is.

Lincoln 🇿🇦 (@Presidentlin) reportedI've been on the side of multiple apps. People are burning themselves out because they feel they need to keep up with everything. You don't need to know about Pomelli Stitch Jules AI Studio Antigravity (which has 4 apps) Gemini App Gemini Spark Google Flow (omg why isn't it called Gemini Flow) Google Flow Music (omg why isn't it bundled in flow) Gemini Notebook (omg why did they change the name) Stax (probably going to get killed) Opal (probably going to get killed) Gemini in Gmail, Docs, Vids I love that each of these has its own usage limits. Not sarcastic The only thing I would ask is a billing page for the Gmail, Docs, Vids Google is stronger when it pits teams against each other. Let another team build a Claude/Replit Design clone and duke it out against Stitch, which is a different product solving a different problem.
