    @googleaccess , I urgently need to recover my Gmail account. My phone's motherboard was replaced, so your system flags my device as unknown. Even though I pass the 2FA steps with my phone number, I'm still stuck and unable to sign in. Please help!

    @mil000 The people in this comments section saying "just vibecode gmail" have clearly NEVER tried to set up a working mail server in their lives, let alone one that can deliver to gmail and not get sent to spam like I have (it was HELL but it was worth it) There's also zero need to vibe code it when there's so many good self hostable email things you can use.

    We're building Authex — an autonomous business email security platform. Most teams check email security in three places that never talk to each other. Someone owns DNS. Someone else owns the Microsoft 365 or Workspace tenant. Nobody owns "are we actually compliant" — until a customer's security questionnaire asks, and it becomes a two-week fire drill. So things drift. Authentication that passed last quarter quietly breaks when a vendor changes selectors. The tenant holds the real exposure — controls nobody re-checked after the last admin left. And it costs revenue both ways. Fail the Gmail and Yahoo sender rules, and outbound you already paid for stops landing. Can't evidence your email controls, and enterprise deals stall in security review while your champion waits. Authex reviews all three — domains, tenants and workspaces, and where you stand against the frameworks. Continuously. It decides what to fix and does it. It pauses only when a change could drop legitimate mail. #authex #autonomous #security

    Most inboxes aren't slow. They just stop when the human does. Penumbra runs 24/7 across Gmail, Outlook and Slack — drafts replies in your voice, flags the urgent, queues everything for one-tap approval. Live soon, so no thread ever outlasts the person behind it.

    @D162Michele Gmail AI now summarizes your email. The gist of the message. The pay. The sum, down to the cent. The deadline. The purchase. The ultimatum. Everything. Like WTF. Ofc they know everything being communicated.

    AI chatbots (Claude, ChatGPT, Perplexity) can't read paywalled articles — even if you're a paying subscriber to ET or LiveMint. Workaround today: copy-paste the text or a screenshot into the chat. But why no connector? We have them for Notion, Gmail, Slack... why not one that authenticates you as a paid subscriber to unlock your own content? Feels like a solvable problem. 🤔

    So I've been working on this since yesterday. I dumped my google drive into an external hard drive. It's like 10+ years of files I've built up. I'm OCRing all the images and pdfs, which means turning them into plain text so I can search through it all easier. It's pretty slow on a raspberry pi, should be working on this all day. Also working on searching through 10 years of gmail.

    Mailneo just passed Google's CASA Tier 2 security audit. If your product touches Gmail data, you have to do this. Nobody writes about it. Here's what it cost, what they found, and the four months I lost by procrastinating. 1/First, what it even is. Read or write a user's Gmail and you're on a "restricted scope". Google requires a third party lab to audit your app before you can go live. Real audit. Scanner pointed at your product, plus a 55 question security questionnaire. 2/Cost: $855/year list. I paid $794 because I asked if there was a discount. There was. Always ask. 3/Timeline: 2 weeks from engaging the lab to Google accepting the letter. Scan on 28 July → results same day → fixes → questionnaire → two evidence rounds → letter issued 31 July → Google confirmed 1 Aug. Faster than I expected. 4/The scan found 14 things. 0 critical 0 high 1 medium 4 low 9 informational Everything has to be fixed or formally disputed. Even the informational ones. 5/The one real bug was a DOM XSS. Not in the product. In a free email signature generator on our marketing site. Every text field was escaped properly. The colour picker wasn't, and that value went straight into a CSS attribute. Humbling. 6/My favourite false positive: The scanner flagged "Source Code Disclosure - SQL" because a blog post of ours contains the sentence "delete from each." Dispute these. Don't try to fix them. 6/Google's first reply told me to swap my scope for two narrower ones. Those narrower scopes don't authorise the API calls we make. So I pushed back with the specific method names and the exact scopes each accepts. They agreed. That recommendation is a form letter. 8/Now the expensive part. I passed Google's scope review in January. Got a deadline of 5 April for the assessment. I was busy shipping. Ignored it. The whole verification lapsed. Had to redo everything from scratch in July. 9/The audit took 2 weeks. Procrastinating on it cost 4 months. Classic solo founder move: pick the fun work over the boring work that's actually blocking your distribution. 11/Best advice if you're facing this: • Ask for the discount • Send command output, not prose, when they want evidence • Declare your gaps honestly, it's faster • Start the day the deadline email arrives 12/Renews in July 2027. Reminder is already set for May. Ask me anything, I had nobody to ask.

    @esrtweet There are good Linux distros fro desktop use, and there have been for at least 15-20 years. I'm exorcising Windows from my life right now, and I'm seriously thinking about going with BSD over Linux. (I've used Linux for my primary desktop several times over the years (mostly Corel/Puppy/Ubuntu), for a total of about 3 or 4 years, but got enticed back to Windows back in 2014 by the Surface Pro and it's amazing support for touch and pen. Since MS has now pretty much abandoned-in-place pen/touch support (and most devs do nothing to take advantage of it, especially after they killed off the awesome, if slow, Surface Studio), there's literally NO reason to put up with Redmond's maddening crapfest anymore.) I do encourage everyone who can to get off Windows. Just donit buy it. If you're a techie, build a Linux/BSD machine. If you're not, and you think Google is any more trustworthy than Microsoft (arguably they are, but that's a really low bar), and especially if your company already uses Gmail, Chromebooks are the zero-admin solution every business owner should be seriously considering. No IT Indians needed!

    "Cuz they're uncs. They don't know what's out there." — @__DanielParedes, investor at Sierra Ventures ($2B AUM), on why investors still use Gmail Daniel never thought he was bad at email. He was just losing his day to the repetitive parts. Triaging, scheduling, chasing follow-ups. In his words, a hair on fire problem. He'd tried Superhuman. "The AI automations weren't there. It's still a lot of human in the loop." Slashy is a system of action. It does the work and hands him the outcome: He says yes, no, or next. "It understands my voice, how I type, all the little stuff. It's saved me at least an hour a day." Almost a digital twin.

    I go through dozens of emails every day. They're all making the same mistake. Subject lines getting cut off by Gmail. The message never lands. The email never gets opened. The simple fix? Keep subject lines under 40 characters. That's it.
