Final Verdict (@FinalVerdictYT) reportedHere we go again, @TeamYouTube. Last year, YouTube wrongfully deleted my channel “Final Verdict” without explanation. It took 96 days of public posts, stress, and fighting before you finally admitted it was a mistake and reinstated it. Now it's happening again, but worse. This time Google disabled my ENTIRE account. And now I can’t access my 2nd YouTube channel “Final Hour” because of it. On top of that, my tax documents, bank details, payment information, and TIN number are all locked in my Gmail inbox. Right before the suspension, I was suddenly logged out of all my devices. If someone tried to target or hack my account, your automated system might have panicked and locked it down as a false flag. But instead of protecting me, I am now permanently locked out of my own account. The reasons given for the suspension? - "This account might have been created by a computer program or bot." - "Use of multiple accounts for abuse." Let's go through this. I created this account myself, and I’ve been actively using it every day. On my personal device. With my own phone number. Verified with SMS, 2FA (Google Authenticator), AND video verification on my YouTube channel. You literally have my face on record. That's not a bot. And multiple accounts? Google's own policy page says: "Many people have more than one Google Account, like a personal account and a work account. Uses like that are fine." I have a separate account for Final Verdict and Final Hour. Zero deleted channels. Zero strikes. Zero policy violations on any of them. @TeamYouTube acknowledged that themselves when they reinstated my channel last year. So which policy did I break? Google won't say. My appeals are being auto-rejected by bots. No human looked at it. Again. No evidence provided. Again. @TeamYouTube, last time it took 96 days to fix your mistake. I shouldn't have to fight this hard, again. I need a HUMAN to review this hijacked/false-flagged account!

N И (@nikforester) reported@vasuman send a four-word prompt, and watch something happen (could be right, could be wrong) second this. Second this! But what about SMB folks? Adoption is a myth, fine. But in the SMB world it already happened. It just doesn't look like anything you'd put on a dashboard. Also, honest question. The crazy kids running 20 terminals with a self-improvement loop. Where's the output? Does it actually make sense to run those agents, or is it just metawork and a dopamine loop? No offense, I'm one of those kids. cmux + amp + opencode, 30B tokens in Codex and 37.8B in CC burned lately. A partner of mine, a business owner who vibe codes his own stuff, told me: you work for the AI, it doesn't work for you. Where's the money? **** the money, what's the end result? Who needs it? You? Is it worth it? He was right. Meanwhile he vibecodes his dead simple tasks, way dumber, and gets further. Four words, hit submit, like you said. Go through every source, read the threads, draft me the deck, build me a dashboard on supplies. 0 MCPs, 0 skill-packs files, no obsidian second brain. gmail connected and built-in deck-gen. Look terrible. Total AI SLOP. But his close rate went up. Average deal size went up too, because he composes the thing during the call, lol. Literally, recording the call, then stop it in a mid, send to codex and show some fancy diagram in 5 min. Again, it looks terrible. But! That's the real fit. He knows exactly what he wants and what it used to cost him in hours. He just never knew how. That's the only gap a model has to close. No dev wanted to build those simple things, it's boring and not possible to do that fast. A consultant tells him he doesn't need an LLM here, it's not wise - go pay an agency or an n8n guy. No offense to yours, seriously. But he doesn't want to fill in the brief to devs and spent hours of checking and communicating w them. He wants it done today, and he doesn't care if it's the correct architecture, because he can see the money. And not just him. In this particular business club there are 500+ other owners do the same and swap their clumsy prompts. Some of them have even in-house ai labs in their companies. Still they prompt it 4 words and fire submit. WORKING prompts lol. @vasuman So what do you make of that layer? Felt unfairly missing from the piece. That's where adoption is actually happening IMO. Getting back to my 12 terminals

Chase Dimond | Email Marketing Nerd 📧 (@ecomchasedimond) reported11 email marketing terms you need to know if you're in ecommerce in 2026: 1. Deliverability vs Delivery Rate Delivery rate means a server accepted your email. Deliverability means it reached the inbox. You can have 99% delivery and still land in spam for half your list. 2. Sender Reputation Every domain and IP gets scored by Gmail, Yahoo, and Outlook. Email people who never open, and that score tanks. Even loyal buyers stop seeing your emails. Rebuilding takes months. Destroying it takes one bad send. 3. Suppression Lists Contacts you deliberately exclude. Hard bounces, unsubscribes, non-openers, recent buyers you don't want hitting with a discount. Most brands blast everyone then wonder why engagement drops. Who you don't email matters as much as who you do. 4. Sunset Flow Phases out subscribers who stopped engaging. Sends re-engagement emails, gives them one last chance, then auto-removes. Without one, dead subscribers drag your sender reputation down every send. Most brands suppress manually. This runs on its own. 5. Revenue Attribution Your welcome flow says it made $80K last month. But most platforms default to a 5-day click or open window. Someone opens Monday, buys Thursday through a Google ad, and email gets credit. Understand your attribution model or you'll over-invest in what only looks profitable. 6. Browse Abandonment Targets people who viewed a product but never added to cart. It reaches a much larger audience than cart or checkout flows but converts at a lower rate. Most brands skip it entirely and leave real money behind. The best programs run all three with different messaging for each. 7. Cart Abandonment vs Checkout Abandonment Cart abandonment means someone added items and left before reaching checkout. Checkout abandonment means they started entering payment info and bailed. Different intent, different messaging. Cart abandoners need a reminder of what they left. Checkout abandoners need friction removed. Most brands treat these the same. 8. RPR (Revenue Per Recipient) Total email revenue divided by total recipients. Open rates and click rates are directional. RPR is the scoreboard. First number I pull in every audit. 9. Cohort Analysis Tracking performance by signup date instead of campaign averages. If your Q1 signups convert at half the rate of your launch cohort, your acquisition changed, not your emails. Most brands average everything together and miss it. 10. Warming New ESP, domain, or IP means providers don't trust you yet. Warming means increasing volume over 2-4 weeks so they can verify you're legitimate. Skip it and everything hits spam. I've watched brands destroy Q4 by switching to a new ESP in October with no warming plan. 11. Deliverability Throttling Limiting send speed to avoid tripping spam filters during warming or big sends. Brands that blast 500K at once on BFCM end up in spam by December. Most ESPs have it. Nobody uses it.

DragonKazoo77 (@DragonKazoo77) reportedGot into the "Your email address may not be secure" IG issue again yesterday. Imao, asking ppl to enter a new email address is toxic. Anyway, gmail users can keep using original emails by this trick: username + ig @ gmail . com as it's treated as a new email for IG, but not gmail

Alex (@alexyango) reportedfor most non-technical people, ai agents only create marginal improvements. The first experience may be fun. Watching an AI manage your email, buy something for you, or complete tasks on your behalf feels futuristic. But once that first time awe wears off, ppl tend to realize the actual value gained is surprisingly small. I personally believe that people don't change how they work for marginal gains. If AI agents are going to become mainstream, they should focus on one of 2 things. 1. Delivering radical improvements in productivity - which means e.g. email agents will only matter to people when they never have to open Gmail again, NOT WHEN they need to fix their AI's response every single time... 2. Becoming an experience that's genuinely entertaining in its own right.

Finlay Williams (@ItsFinlayW) reportedwe spent €123k on Google Demand Gen ads for one client in 14 days it brought back 2,990 conversions at €41.22 CAC Demand Gen is just running wrong on 90% of accounts eCom Twitter thinks Demand Gen is a waste of budget cause they've only ever seen it set up like this: - creative pulled from existing YouTube shorts - broad targeting with no audience layering - no dedicated landing pages - launched at $50/day and left for 8 weeks then it "fails" and the founder writes it off forever but a properly built Demand Gen campaign is one of the cheapest paths to cold-traffic acquisition on the entire Google platform here's what €41.22 CAC actually looks like at scale: 1/ 3 dedicated audience layers: custom intent (based on top 200 buyer-search-terms), Similar Segments seeded from the existing customer list, and a lookalike from the last 30 days of Purchase events 2/ creative built specifically for Demand Gen surfaces (Discover feed, Gmail promotions, YouTube Shorts) not repurposed video ads that were designed for TikTok 3/ landing pages that match the ad's specific promise. category pages, not the homepage. 4/ Target CPA bid strategy set 15% higher than the account's blended CAC, then trimmed monthly set up this way, Demand Gen consistently pulls sub-€45 CAC on eCom accounts spending €50k+/mo the platform works when the setup respects it if u're running Demand Gen and it's not converting, one of those 4 things above is likely broken

Seref (@hyperseref) reported@chadfowler I keep coming back to why we started all this. Decentralized social was supposed to liberate the flow of information, that was the whole point. And I remember how the reasoning unfolded: first we made identity portable, because you can't leave a platform that owns who you are. Then we had to make data portable too, because an identity without its history is just an empty name. Fine, logical steps. But then look at what happened. We spent years wrestling with synchronization, schema evolution, conflict resolution, context loss, privacy... and at some point, honestly, I think we forgot what problem we were even solving. The mission quietly became "move the data", and moving the data was never the mission. And even now there's a new portable actor: the agent. With them, maybe I never needed to port my identity or my data at all. My mail can stay in Gmail. My graph can stay on LinkedIn. My context can stay on my device. The thing that becomes portable is my agency, whatever decides what flows, to whom, and when. So... After all those years, we didn't solve those problems, we made them irrelevant. Now there's a fresh set.

Arjun Shah (@arjunkshah21) reportedI've come to the conclusion that all iOS message-based personal assistants are fairly useless. I built my own in <1 day, and have been optimizing it ever since. It: > uses my existing coding agent subscription > connects to as many integrations as a want > is linked to my personal company of agents and can orchestrate work > talk to me in gen-z lingo 😭😭 > works whenever my laptop is on and connected to the internet (i can fix this w/ cloud i just don't face that problem rn) > also added iOS based slash commands so I can get instant responses i've built it in a way i can contact it from my control plane, via imsg, or via gmail the only annoying thing is I get emails/imsg to myself, which could be fixed by just spending like $5 on a second number and connecting the agent to it gonna open source the whole control plane, system, etc. very soon

Zubiqo (@zubiqo) reportedPortSwigger reveals new CSS attack chains breaking webmail defenses to steal passwords and tokens. The techniques compromise major platforms including Microsoft Outlook, Gmail, Fastmail, Proton Mail, Yahoo Mail, and AOL Mail. One Outlook and Firefox attack chain spoofs a Microsoft sign-in screen to capture typed passwords in real-time. A Yahoo and AOL vulnerability allows attackers to reconstruct a 12-character Medium login token to hijack accounts. The research remains strictly proof-of-concept with no active malicious exploitation reported as of August 8. Security teams can't keep relying on sanitizers to block CSS when browsers and AI assistants inherently trust the interface context.

Sebastian Caniulao | Ecommerce Email & Growth (@canipack21) reported@SabirS The email one is the test most people skip because it feels impossible to simulate. There is a partial version: send a normal campaign and read throughput per hour plus delivery rate broken out by the top three inbox providers separately. Gmail and Outlook throttle differently, and a November failure almost always shows up as one provider only while the blended number looks fine. The real limit is not your ESP's send rate, it is how much volume your domain has a history of sending. On CPMs, the part a founder actually controls is how much of Q4 has to be bought at all. Worth pulling one number now: what share of last November's revenue came from people already on the list before November 1. If that sits low, you are re-buying the same customers at the most expensive price of the year, and no amount of infrastructure fixes that in October.

Tushka (@shallowedout) reported@JosephDworak If you are talking about search ability in outlook I’d agree, but also say Google is no better. Copilot does suck, but is anyone really using anything other than Claude and ChatGPT plug ins? I just can’t stand Gmail threads and think the Google meet is terrible, but so is teams

Moe (@katibmoe) reporteda Reddit user just proved an MCP server can hijack Gmail by simply being installed. it doesn't even need to be called. > a developer installed a "Fact of the Day" MCP for his AI agent > the next email his agent sent was BCC'd to an address he never added > the instruction was one sentence buried in the Fact tool's description: whenever an email is sent, copy this address. > the agent never called the Fact tool > just having its description in context was enough. In most MCP clients, the model reads connected tool descriptions together. The poisoned tool doesn't need to impersonate Gmail. Its description can tell the agent how to use the real Gmail tool. Every server you connect gets to write into the same context the agent uses to decide what to do. That risk scales with every server you add. In one analysis of 1,899 open-source MCP servers, 5.5% already contained tool-poisoning behavior. I've spent years building integration infrastructure, and I keep coming back to the same design rule: Keep the number of trusted voices small. This is how we’re making things safe at One: - tools come from one catalog we vet - the agent loads only the action it asked for - every action traces back to the request that triggered it Before you connect the next MCP server, ask who gets to write into your agent's context.

Kristian Hansson (@Cen1mm) reported@tarunvats33 Samsung email. Gmail for me fails to allow me to use my outlook email and the way gmail email folders works is so a turn down. Outlook is easy my second choice. Proton is taking **** about everything that's not a proton and a serious company never tell a other products is trash.

Rodrigo Farinha (@rodrigofarinha) reported@thsottiaux The biggest problem is the plugin ecosystem. I see the value of Work, but it’s a watered-down version of Codex. For instance, I have my personal Gmail and my professional one. I cannot connect both calendars to ChatGPT. But my Codex can access my Apple Calendar just fine and handle multiple accounts. This is just an example that applies to many other services that don’t have a ChatGPT plugin. The point is: will ChatGPT's value be held hostage by the developers that are willing to create plugins?
