  Unsubscribe is them walking out. Spam is them telling the building you're a problem. Unsub hurts a dashboard. Spam hurts the next 10,000 people. Keep blasting people who already wanted out and Gmail starts taking their side. One-click leave. Stop mailing people who never wanted this cadence. I'd rather they walk out than burn the building.

  @bot @bot i have been waiting for five days for Customer service to resolve a sync issue. I signed up mainly for GrokBot but have been unable to use it because it tries to sync my cursor to my Gmail account which is attached to my Apple account which is how my grok account logged in.

  Comparisons of Free Trial Abuse Prevention Services If you're running a SaaS with a free trial or focusing on PLG, authentication and abuse prevention are not the same problem. - WorkOS: If you're already using WorkOS, WorkOS Radar is probably the first thing I'd look at. For a WorkOS stack, WorkOS AuthKit + Radar makes the most sense. You don't need to bolt another authentication system onto your app just to get abuse signals. - Auth0, Supabase Auth, Better Auth: These are primarily identity/authentication platforms. Integrating only these can't prevent free trial abuse. - Custom: Like the previous options, you need a custom way to prevent free trial abuse. Most free trial abuse methods involve disposable emails, Google dot variations, Google/Gmail domain variations, and plus addressing. That's why even when you block bots via Cloudflare Turnstile or CAPTCHA, you can still get these abusers. The industry standards: - Block free trial abuse using lists hosted on GitHub: This is a pain in the ***. If you don't want to pay money, you can use a service that offers a generous free tier. - WorkOS Radar: This is mainly used at the enterprise level. They focus more on WorkOS-related integrations rather than integrations with other providers. - ZeroBounce, NeverBounce, MillionVerifier, DeBounce: These are mainly used to clean/validate emails. There are 100s of alternatives, and most are similar with minor differences. They all have disposable email checking APIs. - UserCheck: This is also an email validation API, but they focus on blocking fake email addresses. It's better than a basic email verification API. - Autheona: This is in the same category as WorkOS Radar and UserCheck, but with more features. It also focuses on fake user detection and is growing with a real user base. Now, pricing: - WorkOS Radar: First 1,000 checks free, then $100 per 50 checks. No application-specific logic changes. Easy to integrate and manage. - ZeroBounce: 100 free validations in the free tier, then pay-as-you-go, starting at 2,000 for $39, and so on. - NeverBounce: No free trial or use case, $8 per 1,000 checks. - UserCheck: 1,000 API requests per month in the free plan. The rule-based engine is not included in the free plan, and you can get up to 1 request per second. - Autheona: 3,000 checks per month, with the rule-based policy engine included. Standard API request rate limitations apply, similar to paid plans. Now, use cases: - WorkOS Radar: Block disposable emails, plus addressing, and Google dot variations. - ZeroBounce, NeverBounce, etc.: Block disposable emails. - UserCheck: Block disposable emails, plus addressing, and Google dot variations; detect public emails; email suggestions; syntax validation; role detection. - Autheona: Everything included in UserCheck, plus business/free/government email identification, deliverability checks, fraud patterns, punycode and mixed-script checks, VPN detection, and bot detection (not necessary if you already use CAPTCHA, Cloudflare, etc.). Final decision from me: - Use WorkOS Radar if you're already in the WorkOS ecosystem. It's harder to integrate with other auth providers. - Use ZeroBounce-like APIs if you need basic disposable email checks. They're not as good if you need a better free tier. - Use UserCheck if you only need email-related validation and want to stay within the free plan. - Use Autheona if you need the most generous free tier available with a custom policy engine. All services take a maximum of a few hours to integrate and test. Both UserCheck and Autheona have a similar approach: integrate once and never touch the code again.

  @ericlbarnes Been using it since I switched to Mac over 20 years ago. Multiple IMAP accounts with tens of thousands of emails. Never had any problem. Even use Gmail exclusively via Apple Mail.

  I sent my Grok @Bot to hunt down an out-of-stock book! It couldn't find any in stock, and the only copy left was way too expensive. But since it has access to my Gmail, it just started emailing publishers and bookstores itself. They're all Turkish, so it wrote the emails in Turkish. I would spent hours on this previously, now it's minutes. Let's see how it ends up :)

  @TechsavvyCS It was surprising that so many people were experiencing this problem. With a simple automation set up in Gmail, I redirect the incoming email to Telegram, and by using a long ringtone in Telegram, I can wake up even while asleep and deliver the item. Updated your research

  @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.

  @sama Hi Sam. A post saying, “I’m in serious trouble because my ChatGPT account was banned,” is going viral in Japan. Of course, there may have been legitimate reasons in this particular case, but ChatGPT accounts have become extremely important to people. Imagine how disruptive it would be if a Gmail account you had used for 20 years suddenly became inaccessible one day. I understand that, because ChatGPT and Codex are such powerful tools, monitoring and managing users is important. However, I believe mistakenly banning users who pose little risk is a serious problem. Precisely because your services are so valuable to people, I hope you will exercise great care when deciding whether to ban an account. P.S. I’m also having trouble because I can no longer publish GPTs. Even features that are not widely used can be extremely important to some people.

  and as we continue to see retail adoption events, the less crypto becomes crypto ppl don't want to know what is under the hood, they just want it to work they don't want to remember seeds, private keys, or even use a wallet address to signin they just want to login with gmail and have it work and they are not fee-sensitive as long as its not exorbitant cheap and fast doesn't matter as long as it is cheap and fast enough

  @MSFT365Status I have been down since 9:00 a.m. this morning! I own a IT technology business and I need to have my email up and running. Unfortunately, I had to use my Gmail account with a disclaimer at the bottom of the email saying that Microsoft's email was not working and therefore that's the difference in the email address. It is not acceptable for this to be down! Microsoft is big enough to handle any situation that comes down the line and this is a perfect example of Microsoft not keeping up with whatever happened. Was it an update? I don't think so! Was it a hack? I don't know! FIX IT!

  @lingxi @bot To be more specific, using the Gmail connector bot has huge trouble sending multiple screenshots from app he just made to my own Gmail. I thing he could make an app for doing this 10 times in the time it took him to use Gmail to do it (unsuccessfuly).

  @cartierfamilyZ Why are people so pressed about data centers all of a sudden? All of your online information from X account, to gmail, any online storage, website etc is stored in a data center. We've had data centers for decades, all of a sudden they're an issue? Take a deep breath, and tune out the idiotic noise.

Accounts created: 0 (he already had both) Apps downloaded: 3 (Microsoft To Do, Teams, OneNote all free) Browser extensions installed: 1 (Microsoft Editor free) Every replacement runs on accounts he created years ago. The tools were sitting behind the same login he uses for Gmail and Outlook unused, unconfigured, and paying rent to 9 other companies that built the same features on top of what Google and Microsoft were already giving away.

  @x_PuraVida_x @IntCyberDigest The age of spoofed email is basically over with near universal DKIM and SPF. You can’t even get delivered to gmail without those, and if you have them setup no real mail server will deliver a spoofed email from your domain.

  @Harshsharma836 The issue isn't really about Gmail specifically being too broad, it's the leading % in the LIKE pattern. Even a rare domain would still force the same full scan since the wildcard sits at the start

  @pitdesi Summer of 2004 I built an app that used gmail attachments as cloud file storage, I called it Goggles. I showed it to a few classmates who worked at Google, they told me to shut it down immediately b/c I'll get sued. Keep wondering what've happened if I didn't listen.

  @GergelyOrosz Really? When tech companies have an outage they sort of shrug and the economy goes on. AWS out - “we’re sorry” Robinhood down - “we made mistakes” Microsoft/Gmail down - “we’re working on it” Bank can’t dispense money? Bank runs, economic fall out, congressional hearings.

  Every 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)
