Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Robotrout (@traut21) reported@ProtonSupport still not receiving emails from any linked external accounts (Gmail) since the outage.
-
Barnes The Vibe Coder (@savebarnesnow) reported@levelsio scoring is the easy 80%. the last 20 is that my 'important' isnt yours, and the model only really learns it from what you actually delete, not the rules you write down. thats the part gmail keeps not shipping
-
Chaotic (@Chaotic_sama) reported@MRHarleyson Both cases I submitted is close, I told Discord supports (on Direct message Twitter/ X) and the support ticket about my gmail have been also hacked that I have no way to sign in. I told them that the gmail account have been hacked and brushed me off that (1/2)

Corrupt.sui (@Corruptlabss) reported@conso_xyz Yup I have it But it is asking to login with Gmail and not with X

Slodds (@Slodds) reported@ChrisCoffee @Meta WIld. Had my 30 year gmail account shut down a couple weeks back, still don't know why(everything attatched to it.) Crazy you can lose all those years of work though at a companies whim.

meowwww (@ChelseaRAR) reportedI thought I’d have trouble staying up for work (start a new stretch tomorrow night) but my Gmail filled up (???) and I had to delete 1000s of emails

Dead Simple Email (@DeadSimpleEmail) reportedAI agents are getting more capable. The conversation is shifting from “can they do work?” to “how do we keep them on-script?” For email, that means dedicated inboxes, scoped access, approval flows, and prompt-injection scanning. Not a shared Gmail login. #AIAgents #GrokBot #BuildinPublic

anirudh (@AnirudhWith) reported@ryanvogel inbound: cf outbound: resend gmail w/send with custom smtp server

Sherif Oyedeji (@sherif_oyedeji) reportedYour business can be doing real work with real clients and still lose a prospect tonight because they searched your name and found an old number, an empty Instagram, and a personal Gmail address. They won't tell you. They'll just go quiet. We fix that at ORAC Partners.

Shanica North (@KickAssShanica) reported@ArcyloOfficial Get comfy! For me, my Gmail is a connector. This is OAuth into my inbox. Grok can: • search and read mail (body, headers, attachments) • draft replies • send / reply / forward if you grant write/send • label, trash, organize Base hook is often read-only. Send is an extra permission you click on purpose. If you connect it, the bot is sitting in the same box as bank alerts and 2FA codes. That is the whole risk. You can revoke anytime. Grok Bot can also skip my inbox and get its own address (AgentMail / similar plugins). Then it sends and receives from something@….agentmail.to, not from you. I use that if I want an agent that emails people without reading my personal mail. My GitHub OAuth into the GitHub user I sign in as. With the scopes I approve it can: • read public and private repos that account can see • search code, list branches, summarize PRs • open/update issues • create branches, push files, open/review/merge PRs • delete files if write is on Private repos work only if I granted repo (or equivalent) at connect time. Safer pattern: tell it to branch + PR, not push straight to main. Same revoke page. What it cannot do by default • It does not get your password. • It does not stay logged in if you disconnect the connector. • It does not magically see my GitHub orgs I never authorized. • Connecting email does not connect GitHub, and the other way around. Practical rule for me Do not hook personal Gmail if that inbox has 2FA and money mail unless you want an assistant reading it. GitHub is useful if I chose to still keep repos, ask it to show the diff before any write. If you only wanted “what does this button do,” that is the button: it is not a viewer badge. It is a key you can take back. This is what I’m experiencing with learning to use it. It’s different and I’m starting to like it.

MostlyHarmless (@harmless_human) reported@rallynate @kbean511 There has probably been a data center near most of them for years and they didnt know. Where do they think netflix and youtube video is stored and all the photos on grandma facebook and gmail account they never delete anything from? The real issue is the mega computer centers running AI programming that shouldnt even be called data centers.

Tricia Newkirk (@bbfitnut) reported@katiehobbs @MaryLouRosas1 Katie, Sweetie… This Is Your Record?” 1. The Pay‑to‑Play Saga That Just Won’t Die Katie out here preaching “nonpartisan leadership” while her administration was busy starring in a real‑life episode of Arizona: The Donation Connection. • Massive donations roll in. • Rate increases magically appear. • A secret legal defense fund pops up like a desert gopher. But sure, Katie — tell us more about “doing what’s right for Arizona.” 2. The $2 Million Wire Transfer to Nigeria This one is peak comedy. Her Housing Department literally wired $2 million of Arizona taxpayer money to scammers. To Nigeria. Because they didn’t have basic verification procedures. Katie: “Leadership is delivering results.” Arizona: “Girl, you delivered $2 million to a scammer with a Gmail account.” 3. The Tourism Logo Fiasco $700,000 blown on a tourism rebrand that looked like someone opened Canva and said “good enough.” Then — shocker — the marketing firm had ties to the Tourism Director’s brother. Director resigns in 48 hours. But yes, Katie, tell us again how you’re “bringing people together.” Apparently mostly through ethics investigations. 4. Court Ruling: You Literally Broke State Law A judge ruled she violated Arizona law by installing agency heads without Senate confirmation. She tried to bypass oversight by inventing “executive deputy directors.” The court basically said: “Nice try, but no.” Leadership, Katie? You can’t even follow the rulebook. 5. Transparency Issues That Make People Squint Even after prosecutors declined charges, the Attorney General said the whole situation showed a need for legislative reform. Translation: “Something smells off, but we can’t prove it yet.”

Haris (@fyreinteractive) reportedyour youtube trust score might be killing your channel’s views and you don’t even know about it… there’s no place to check it, but it exists you've seen it happen. a creator posts 20 genuinely good videos. zero traction. under 100 impressions on all of them. they assume they're bad at this, burn out, and quit. the content was fine, and the channel was flagged before their first upload even went live. let me break down exactly how this works and the $0 fix... when you create a new youtube channel, the system evaluates a set of signals to classify whether you're a real creator or a bot farm. fresh gmail + instant uploads + 0 viewing history + no subscriber activity = the exact fingerprint of the spam channels youtube kills every day so the system treats you the same way. your reach gets throttled before you've begun. i've watched this wreck dozens of channels in the facelessOS community before we figured out the pattern. a creator sets up a new gmail, creates a channel, uploads 5 videos in the first week, and wonders why their impressions are in the single digits. they think their thumbnails need work. their hooks need work. their niche selection was wrong. the real cause sat elsewhere: the channel was classified as low-trust on day one. and once you're locked in what people are calling "0 view jail," the algorithm withholds enough initial impressions to even TEST whether your videos are good. you're uploading into a void. the protocol fixing this costs nothing and takes 7 days. step 1: use a gmail you've had for months. an aged, real email with search history, youtube watch history, subscriptions, normal activity. this single change shifts how youtube classifies the account from the start. aged gmails signal "real human." fresh gmails signal "potential spam." step 2: spend 7 days as a viewer before you upload anything. watch full videos in your niche. complete watch-throughs rather than 30-second clicks. subscribe to 10-15 channels in your space. leave a few real comments. like videos. build a viewing profile that matches the audience you want to attract. this sounds dumb. it's the highest-leverage 7 days you'll ever spend on a channel. the system now has evidence you're a real person with real interests in the niche you're about to create content for. that reads completely differently to "anonymous account uploaded 5 videos about true crime yesterday." step 3: verify your identity. enable feature eligibility in your youtube settings. this requires a government ID and phone number. i know some faceless creators hate this because they want full anonymity. the tradeoff is the algorithm treating you like a verified human instead of an unknown entity. every creator in our network who verified saw an immediate increase in initial impression allocation. step 4: upload cadence matters MORE than upload volume. the channels that escape 0 view jail the fastest upload 2-3 videos in their first week with 48-72 hours between uploads, well away from 5 videos on day one. consistent spacing signals "real creator." mass uploads signal "bot farm." youtube's system is pattern-matching your behaviour against known spam patterns, and spam channels dump content fast. step 5: your first 3 videos are an audition. youtube tests new channels by sampling a small audience. if those first 3 videos get decent retention (above 40%) and positive engagement, the system escalates your trust and your next uploads get shown to a bigger initial pool. if your first 3 videos get 10% retention because the scripts were weak, the system downgrades you and your next uploads get an even smaller test audience. it's a compounding loop in both directions. this is why i keep saying the script carries everything. especially for new channels, the first 3 scripts need to be ENGINEERED for retention. they set the trust score for every video that comes after. the channels in our network running scripts built on retention data from 8,000+ proven scripts skip the 0 view jail entirely. their first videos get tested on meaningful audience sizes because the retention signals tell the algorithm "this channel is worth pushing."

Cody Schneider (@codyschneider) reportedcold email explained Low IQ: Get a list of people with the problem. Send them four sentences about the problem and one specific offer. Send a lot of them. Midwit: 40 domains, 120 mailboxes, a rotation schedule, and a spreadsheet tracking mailbox health Warmup tools running permanently at 30 emails/day forever Spintax on every sentence, {{first_name|there}} fallbacks nested three deep "Spam word" avoidance — rewriting "free" and "guarantee" out of copy like it's 2011 Gmail Open tracking on, via a custom tracking domain (open tracking is itself a deliverability liability) AI personalization on the wrong variable: "Noticed you studied at Michigan State — go Spartans!" 9-step sequences ending in "bumping this up," "did this get buried?", and the breakup email 14 micro-ICP segments with bespoke copy for each A/B testing subject lines on 200 sends and declaring a winner Reporting reply rate as the KPI When it doesn't work: buy more data, add more mailboxes High IQ: Precise list, short email, one specific offer, high volume, hygiene done once. Measure meetings held and pipeline, nothing above it.

Shripal Gandhi (@ishripalgandhi) reportedThis has become a recurring problem. This has happened earlier too (maybe 2 months ago?), and its happening again. Entire businesses run on Whatsapp (I am NOT a proponent of that!) and this kind of an advance hoc review/hold can bring businesses to a standstill! Solution: 1. Move back to good ol' email. 2. For IM and VCs, use Meet/Teams/Zoom. 3. For channels, try Slack. 4. For OTPs, use SMS 5. Want to save on call charges then use the voice call feature on Meet/Teams. There is nothing unique that Whatsapp offers that your life cannot get by without. It's just that we are way too deep in a comfort zone and Zuck is exploring that to the fullest! If you have a damn smartphone then you sure as hell have a Gmail account or you wouldn't have been able to download Whatsapp. So move your arse out from WhatsApp and explore other options.

Mathieu (@mathlleu) reportedLinkedIn bought the best Gmail extension ever made. Then killed it. Twice. 2012: LinkedIn buys Rapportive for a reported $15M. The sidebar showed you who any email sender really was. Salespeople used it for something else entirely: type a guessed email into Gmail, and if Rapportive lit up, the address was real. 2017: rebranded into "Sales Navigator Lite for Gmail". 2020: shut down. Official reason: low adoption. Then it happened AGAIN. The most recommended replacement, Clearbit Connect, died in April 2025. (HubSpot bought Clearbit, and that was that.) Rapportive died twice. The job never did. Find a work email, prove it's real before you hit send. People did that by hand, address by address, in the To: field. Today it's verification against live mail servers, and if the lookup misses, you don't pay. We wrote up which famous "Rapportive replacements" are actually still alive in 2026. The graveyard is longer than you think. Link in the replies 👇

Jordan Wiens (@psifertex) reported@Zoom Oh! I remember the other problem. The "send a code" button is super slow. Yes, I checked my spam folder. Took several minutes to come through. To a gmail domain. It also produces a captcha error every time you click the button even after you've already clicked the captcha.

JovanHuttonPulitzer™ אני לא סובל טיפשים! (@JovanHPulitzer) reported@stelzner_n1150 This has to be the stupidest comment ever sorry. 100% of cell phones, smart phones, cable boxes, electric meters, computer usage and email GOES THROUGH DATA centers and always has! Here are the facts: That claim is backwards. The internet and smartphones have always run on data centers (or the same thing under older names: server rooms, colo, hosting farms). What changed is the size, location, and branding — not whether the machines exist. The internet never ran without servers Commercial internet use took off in the early 1990s. From day one it needed: ISP modem banks and backbone routers Web/email/DNS servers Co-location and hosting facilities Those are data centers. Exodus, AboveNet, Equinix, and telco “carrier hotels” were already packing raised-floor rooms with racks in the mid-to-late 1990s. Google’s first big custom plants and Amazon’s early AWS rooms were 2000s expansions of that model, not a new species of building. You could run a static homepage off a PC in a closet. You could not run search, streaming, maps, payments, or “the internet” as people actually used it. Smartphones made the dependence worse, not optional The iPhone shipped in 2007. A phone is a thin client. Almost everything people treat as “the phone” lives off-device: iCloud / Google account sync Maps and traffic App Store / Play Store Gmail, Photos, Drive Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Spotify Siri / Assistant Banking and payments That traffic hits someone’s data center. If those rooms went dark, the glass slab in your pocket would still make calls on a good day and not much else. Twenty years of smartphones is twenty years of more backend compute, not twenty years without it.

Matt Wright (@MattWrightMCT) reportedEvery business that reaches seven or nine figures has an aha moment. Mine came two hours into day one. An aha moment is when you find the one thing that gives your business an edge. For Facebook, it was working out that a new user who made seven friends in their first ten days was unlikely to ever leave the app. So that became the only number the company chased. For Gmail, it was working out that somebody typing their password was almost certainly about to open their inbox, so they started loading it right then and killed the wait everybody else was making you sit through. At Cars4Us, it came two hours after we opened the doors, when I bought the first car and two things were obvious. Buying cars was far easier than I'd assumed it would be. And what made that bloke say yes had far more to do with how fast we moved than with the price I gave him. Everything else about us was worse. We were four people using a cheap transport company, and nobody had ever heard our name. He sold to us anyway, because we got to him first. That was the edge. Speed. I couldn't be bigger than my competitors on day one and I couldn't outspend them. But I could be the quickest, and that was the one area nobody was competing in. So the whole company got built on that. Enquire at 9:30 in the morning, inspector standing at your car by 1pm, money in your account by 4. Within 60 days we were the largest online car buying company in the country. So stop trying to be better at everything, because that's the one game every competitor in your market is already playing. Go and find what your industry is slow at, and own that instead. (And yes, I used the F1 car pick because I'm talking about speed here)

Repzion (@DarthhPotato) reportedTakingback2007 is now issuing false copyright strikes because he is salty I covered a now "privated" live stream of me trolling them in a livestream chat. I know YouTube doesn't care about false claims, but my 3 hr long ideo will go down in 6 days. I'll be counter-filing as per usual. I just finished court with onision last month over this. my other livestream was court-ordered to be restored. When will YouTube stop allowing bad actors to abuse copyright, using less than 2 mins of a video, to remove a 3 hr long video is ridiculously hilarious. There used to be a time when you had to have an actual business email account to file copyright strikes, now you can just do it with any gmail account. This same person filing this false strike was on livestream on youtube (now privated) yesterday of him loading a firearm mag and writing names of people on his glock bullet casings who he wants to harm. Takingback2007 is a new level of insane I've come across with on Youtube.
