Peter (@peter) reportedI’m not sure what Google’s plan for AI in Gmail is, but their “AI inbox” isn’t it. Completely irrelevant notifications, some highlighting “deadlines” from 5 days ago, while actually urgent stuff gets missed. Terrible intro to Gmail AI as a user. I’ve already turned it off.

Silent_No_More (@silentn0mor3) reported@4nt1p4tt3rn Most people are unprepared to deal with the security risks associated with running a sendmail server. How about a free Protonmail account? I'm sure they're not as private as they claim, but they're a darn sight better than Gmail. My challenge has just been undertaking the grunt work of transitioning email addresses - in all the sites and services that I depend on. Although it would likely free me up from Spam which is 95% of the email I get daily. I've tried starting this before only to fizzle out.

FATHELA ESQ (@AmControo) reportedBefore you pay for extra Gmail storage, check this first. Before you pay for extra Gmail storage, check this first. Before you pay for extra Gmail storage, check this first. Google storage fills up quietly, and many people rush to pay without checking what is actually consuming the space. Most people blame Gmail, but the real problem is often somewhere else. With one proper clean-up, you can free up a surprising amount of storage in less than ten minutes. Here is the method:👇

kcs (@kaafichillscene) reportedHot take: WWDC 26 was a dud 💩 Apple promised this Siri 2 years ago. Got sued. Settled for $250M. Delivered it now in 2026. But there is actual good stuff in there. Late in classic apple fashion but promising this time. WHAT THEY GOT RIGHT: → Siri finally has cross-app context: it reads your messages, emails, calendar and just acts. No copy-pasting, no switching apps, no explaining yourself twice → On-screen awareness is real. Point at anything, ask Siri about it. On Mac you can right-click a window and ask questions about what's on it. I didn't think I needed this until I saw it → Phone app pulling context from your emails mid-call is the sleeper feature nobody's talking about → Siri remembers conversations now. Finally. This is the assistant Apple was pretending to have since 2022. WHERE THEY LOST THE PLOT: → "Customisable voice sliders for Siri": bro, Samsung has had this since 2019 → AI reply suggestions in Messages: Gmail did this in 2018 and nobody clapped → Tab management in Safari packaged as a breakthrough feature. It's tab management. → Federighi talked about privacy for 10 minutes straight. Cool. Also Google Gemini is now inside your iPhone and Apple is paying them $1B a year for it. That part was a footnote. The product is genuinely good. The showmanship is still peak Apple, half the keynote was dressing up solved problems as inventions. But the cross-app stuff? That's real. That changes how you use your phone. 3rd party applications cannot really let you do much with AI agents on your phone but when you’re apple, you can literally make the phone do anything using AI. They gave a peak behind that curtain at WWDC 2026. You cannot really use the apps of your choice with SIRI right now but surely, that will come. Imagine saying, “hey Siri, it’s time to leave for work” and Siri calling you a cab. In 5 years, you may not be looking at your phone at all. Screens are so old school, voice is the new surface.

Brandforma — Minimalist Logo Design Studio (@brandforma) reportedA silent technical bug cost me 5 client leads over the past month. My business email stopped delivering to Gmail. No bounce. No error. Emails were sent, I just never received them. Hosting changed something server-side. Everything looked fine from the outside. The fix took minutes. The damage was already done. The lesson: test your business email regularly. Send a test message. Click your own contact form. Don't assume it works because it used to.

Aria Westcott (@AriaWestcott) reportedSo I started turning it off. First, the switch they actually show you. On desktop: open Gmail, click the gear, then See all settings. On the General tab, find Smart Features, uncheck it, scroll down and Save. Then I learned that was only half of it.

Base.Tube (@base_tube) reportedThe worst part isn’t the spam. It’s the $5k deal sitting in the same inbox as a crypto scam and a $50 “collab.” A public Gmail turns your business into a junk drawer. The fix isn’t more hustle. It’s a front door that filters, qualifies, and protects the good stuff.

Manjul Vic🦅 (@VictorManjul) reported@Kachi_Meta @vian337 @joseph_sorbari The likely cause is the navigation process. When you visit the site: Click on "Get Started, next Start New Registration”. Avoid logging in with Gmail; instead, scroll down and complete the form with your "First Name, Surname, Phone, Email, Password." After submitting the form, an email will be sent to the provided address, check the Spam folder if you don't see it. Open the email and click the verification link. Next, log in using your email and password. Finally, click "START NEW REGISTRATION." This will open a form for the user to complete. Once finished, submit the form to complete the process.

Paul (@0xPaulvibe) reportedI just got an email reply that reminded me why I actually do this. It was from a girl named Roos. She replied to one of my automated funnels for Beter Turnen. The email I sent was a standard sequence. Talking about lesson prep, saving time, and offering a trial for my platform. Real "founder marketing" stuff. Her reply: "Jo, I want you to know that I'm really sorry but I can't gymnastics anymore. My knee has a very bad injury so unfortunately I have to delete your gmail too otherwise I get too much storage sorry 😔" It hit me. We talk about funnels, conversion rates, and "leads" all day. We look at dashboards and see numbers moving up or down. But on the other side of that automation is a person who feels like they owe you an apology because they can't use your product anymore. Roos didn't just unsubscribe. She felt a connection enough to explain why she was leaving. She was worried about her storage space, but more worried about letting me know why she couldn't follow the lessons. Automation usually feels cold. But if you write like a human, people respond like humans. Even when they’re leaving. That’s the goal. Building something that people actually care about losing.

nmuk (@nmuk) reported@ExitLiqCapital I've got my own domain, never had a problem. But my domain name doesn't end in capital which suggests some kind of financial services. It's not about having your own non gmail domain.

hrncode (@vinland_code) reportedGemini has 28% of the AI assistant market right now. Sounds great until you realize most of that is people who never actually chose it. it's just baked into Gmail, Android, and Google Search. Captive audience isn't the same as mindshare. Ask a dev what they open when they need to actually write code or debug something hard. It's not Gemini. Claude Opus 4.8 is at 88.6% on SWE-bench. GPT-5.5 is running the agentic workflows. Even Grok is taking shots. The models that actually end up in startup stacks and production pipelines? Still not Google's. And yeah, Google literally published "Attention Is All You Need" in 2017. Invented the transformer. Watched the world build the entire AI era on it, then struggled to ship a product that devs actually prefer to use. To be fair: Gemini 3.5 Flash just dropped at Google I/O last month, apparently runs 4x faster than other frontier models. Veo and Imagen are genuinely good for video/image generation. And Gemini 3.1 Pro beat everyone on ARC-AGI-2 abstract reasoning. So they can clearly build. The problem is when people have a real choice, they're still not picking Gemini for the work that matters most to them.

𝐷𝑟. 𝐼𝑎𝑛 𝐶𝑢𝑡𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑠 (@IanCutress) reportedAll my @GeminiApp settings are enabled to be used with my email but it still keeps throwing me the 'we don't have access to your emails' error. Everything is enabled in workspace admin, everything is enabled in gmail. It randomly stopped working with nothing changed yesterday

Keith Perhac 🐡 (@harisenbon79) reportedSo what actually happens when you send an email? Apple Mail preloads every single email, opened or not, which fires your tracking pixel. Gmail sometimes does the same thing, depending on the day, how the algorithm feels, who you're sending to, and what the monkeys are up to. Ad blockers kill the pixel entirely for a huge chunk of your list. And the list goes on. So that open rate in your dashboard? It's not a headcount of humans who read your email. It never was. It never was. It hasn't been for over a decade. I've watched people make genuinely bad decisions trying to optimize a number that was never clean to begin with. With open rates, you're not reading a count. You're reading a shape. What do I mean by that? If your open rate runs around forty percent and then one week it drops to eight, something changed. A deliverability issue. A subject line that missed. A segment that tuned out. You don't need the number to be precise to know something broke. Same thing in the other direction. A spike might mean a great subject line. Or it might mean Apple preloaded a big batch. So you investigate. You don't celebrate it. The metric becomes useful when you stop treating it like a fact and start treating it like a signal. Watch the trend. Know your baseline. Then you can act when the shape changes. That's it.

Vaibhav Sharma (@TheVaibhavShrma) reportedSince exam papers can be leaked through messaging platforms, the government should immediately ban Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Chat, Outlook, Gmail, Zoom, and maybe email itself. Can't have leaks if nobody can communicate. Problem solved. 😌

Andrew Carles (@andrew_carles) reported@hetmehtaa The issue is that email itself is not inherently secure. While the practitioner's email system may be encrypted and compliant, there is no guarantee that a patient's personal AOL, Yahoo, or Gmail account has the same level of security. Once information leaves the provider's secure environment and is delivered to an unsecured personal email account, the risk of unauthorized access increases significantly.

Micheal O'Neill (@aiwithkelso) reportedIf you pay for Google Workspace, you already have access to AI agents. Most people on the paid plan have no idea they're there. Google added them through a feature called Workspace Studio, accessible directly from inside Gmail. You open it, pick a ready-made agent or describe the job in plain English, and switch it on. No coding required. It runs on its own from that point. I switched one on this week. Every morning it reads my inbox, summarises what came in overnight, and flags the emails that actually need a reply. Three minutes to set it up. The summary is waiting when I sit down. Other agents draft meeting prep notes before a scheduled call, or handle the standard questions you get asked over and over. Any job you do by hand right now, or skip because it takes too long. You describe it once, the agent does it. Set up two or three of these and you claw back an hour or two a week, without changing how you work. The feature is already in your account if you're on the paid plan. Free Gmail won't have it. Go to Gmail, look top right for the Studio icon next to the Gemini star, and open it.
