16 Billion 💼 (@bencipherx) reportedToday’s agentic workflow snack: I wanted Codex to check my Gmail sent items, find an Excel sheet I emailed myself from my mom's PC during a visit, and help me continue working on it. Instead, I ran into a known Windows Store Codex issue where Google OAuth succeeds, but `codex://oauth_callback` fails. This is the real edge of agents right now: not intelligence, but integration reliability. Anyone else seeing this on Windows? @OpenAI @Microsoft

nielr1 (@nielr1) reportedWhen you start building workflows and automations agentically you really start to see the weakness/limitations/built in guards for a lot of things you use. For example, Gmail won't let you download attachments through the API. You can find emails with attachments through the API then need to download them using browser control which is slow and messy. I'm hoping this new era forces APIs to evolve.

ericosiu (@ericosiu) reportedTomas Tunguz said nobody will open Gmail five times a day in five years. I think he's right, but not for the reason most people assume. The average knowledge worker gets 121 emails a day. One every four minutes during work hours. The inbox is already unmanageable, and AI is about to make the volume problem disappear entirely. Here's what that actually looks like. AI processes 115 of those 121 emails. It auto-routes, drafts responses, handles the noise. You see maybe six. Maybe ten or twenty if you're generous. Email isn't dying. The inbox is getting curated. That's a completely different problem for marketers. The question used to be open rate. Now the question is whether your email survives the AI filter before a human ever sees it. Think about your own inbox right now. There are maybe a handful of senders you actually care about. The rest is ambient noise you've trained yourself to ignore. AI is just going to formalize that behavior at scale. So if you're running email marketing, the game has shifted. It's no longer about volume or clever subject lines. It's about whether your brand has enough signal, enough trust, enough relevance to get placed in that top tier. The channels aren't dying. The tolerance for mediocre messaging is.

Techjunkie Aman (@Techjunkie_Aman) reported@400_yen Exactly. That’s the part a lot of people are emotionally reacting to instead of technically thinking through. If an email arrives unencrypted from Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, etc., then somewhere a mail server has to receive readable plaintext first. That’s literally how delivery works. Proton can encrypt it immediately after receipt and store it in a zero access way, but they can’t encrypt data before they physically receive/process it. Otherwise they’d need a time machine 😭

Iza (@izadoesdev) reported@tomhaerter i hate services with only email & password, prefer to login with gmail or github

Garrett Pierson (@CREwithGarrett) reported@irentdumpsters This is why I always tell clients to treat their GBP like a bank account not a social media profile. Separate login, two-factor on, and at least one recovery email that isn't the owner's personal Gmail. What recovery path did Google give them after the denial?

Hatice Öztürk (@HaticeOzturk86) reported@AstroVerseSyn @gmail Same trouble @MarenXyber on X handled it fast.

Duuguu (@ArtDuggy) reportedWait is it even possible just to make a new account with an email, it’s like forcing me to login either with an existing gmail account or phone number
-
Ishan (@ishanxtwt) reported@Sarthak4Alpha Because email doesn't work like that. When you hit send, Gmail hands off a full copy to the recipient's server (Yahoo, Outlook, whatever). Google has zero control over it anymore, it's like mailing a physical letter. They can't reach into someone else's mailbox and yank it back. That's why "recall" only works inside big company setups (like Microsoft 365) where everything stays on the same server. For regular Gmail, the best you've got is the Undo Send feature (you can set it to 30 seconds in settings). After that, it's gone for good.

Arctios gouda (@VoiceM33797) reported@lorddrey424 @kingof2odd Bro, I had the same problem too. The solution is simple. You need to completely delete AdSense from two places. You've already done one, but there another adsesn subscription connected to your Gmail account. Check that as well. If you can't find it, DM me

Anthony Di Benedetto (@anthonydibe) reported@vasuman Open a new conversation in same project and ask it why it’s getting so long and provide recos to get faster without compromising quality. I discovered a third party plugin for Gmail was slowing down. After that the on going thread of 47h thinking got faster

Blum (@Blum_OG) reported> spent years switching between 5 apps to do 1 thing > WhatsApp to find the context > Gmail to find the email > browser to verify the startup > Gmail again to draft the intro > WhatsApp again to confirm it was sent > 20 mins for a 2-sentence intro email > not hard work > just brutal attention tax > the problem wasn't the apps > the problem was being the glue > every step a context switch > every switch a small cost > compounding across every day > built an agent stack instead > Codex as the operator > Gmail, Drive, Calendar, WA, TG, iMessage, browser - all wired in > contacts in a CSV Google Sheet > Google Drive as source of truth > skills as written procedures: inbox-zero, contacts, personal admin > approval gates before anything public gets sent > the agent reads, drafts, waits, sends, confirms > user-facing part: ~10 secs > the computer was always supposed to do this > you were just too busy being the computer

Bright Afeno | Fenoxx (@BrightAfeno) reported80% of your YT problems is just the Gmail associated with it… Don’t overthink it. Here’s how to test channels and get monetized faster instead of waiting patiently: I give channels a period of 7-8 days to work…(gain traction and show signs of progress) Note: I said Channels and NOT videos. The reason is because I’m confident in my ideation. And my videos tend to pick even in the next 12-24 hrs of posting on a fresh channel. If you post 5-7 videos in 7 days on a channel and you experience this dramatic nose dive(shown in the video), just know the Gmail and channel is bad. Delete everything on the channel and move to a new Gmail. Post the same videos on the new channel and if the graph looks something like this icon 📊 (down, up, down, up, up, down, up) But if you see an up, up, down, down, down, down…movement Just know that something went wrong. 4 days of dramatic downward movement is the sign… YT tested the channel and decided to dump it…(for whatever mysterious reasons!) Don’t stay patiently waiting and posting when your ex dumps you…. Move on to a new chick quickly… After all, the world is full of millions of beautiful and decent women! You get?>>>

Yashasvi (@_iamyt_) reportedThe problem: I had 6 tabs open just to check my own progress. GitHub here. LeetCode there. Codeforces somewhere else. Internship emails buried in Gmail. DevMirror pulls it all into one place — and tells you what to focus on.

SIR DEJI (@SIR__DEJI) reportedThat's not even the worst part, the worst part is that I literally thought my Gmail app had a problem since yesterday not ordinarily one message entered my Gmail since yesterday which made me miss out on different important notifications including business

_tHE_mIR_ (@_tHe_mIR_) reported@Indian_Analyzer Most Androids and even iPhones are logged into their OS using their GMAIL as SSO. If GMAIL is blocked the OS won’t recognise its user and would deny login to the phone itself. Forget UPI, nothing will work till user logs in using separate email account who can many don’t have.

Danish Mir (@d0fourMir) reportedthe lifecycle of an online purchase is deeply fractured. you buy on a site, get a receipt in gmail, and track a package on a carrier's terrible web view. if you execute the checkout natively via open protocol, you inherit the state management.

Sabo (@MrColdEmail) reportedHonestly the funniest scam in modern business history is Google owning both the inbox that decides if your email lands AND the $400-a-click ad you're forced to buy when it doesn't... Gmail blocks 27% of legitimate B2B emails. That number isn't a glitch. It's been climbing every year since 2019 with the consistency of a tax policy. Every cold email Gmail kills is a buyer that now has to find your competitor through a $4 to $400 sponsored Google search result. Google made $237 billion in advertising revenue last year. Gmail is "free." There is no version of this where the company that owns the inbox AND the ad auction wants the free distribution channel competing with its $237B revenue line to keep working. The conflict of interest is the size of a small country. You've been told for 5 years that "deliverability is getting harder." Every blog post and Twitter guru blames warmup pools, sender reputation, copy quality, spam triggers. None of them mention the part where the world's largest advertising company gets richer every time your free email channel dies. Numbers nobody wants to run out loud: Gmail handles 1.8 billion users worldwide. B2B email gets routed to spam at a rate roughly 3x higher than B2C email per public Litmus data. The average B2B keyword on Google Ads runs $4.85 to $87 per click depending on category. Google's ad revenue has grown an average of 18% year over year since 2019, the same period cold email deliverability has gotten dramatically harder. That's not a correlation. That's a strategy. The cold email industry has spent 5 years telling itself the problem is technical. The actual problem is that Mountain View has been quietly tuning a **** on the spam filter while collecting $237 billion from the ad market that benefits when free outreach dies. You're not losing emails to spam. You're being taxed. Don't hate the player, hate the game.
