denas (@denasklncs) reportedfrance is the market that breaks most english language deliverability advice. french providers commonly filter through vade, which is a different engine with different rules. orange greylists aggressively, particularly against new domains and during warmup, and runs slow processing queues. free filters strictly and will throttle you. so a warmup schedule that works fine for gmail can look like a failure in france for reasons that have nothing to do with your reputation. if you are launching a french locale, plan for delay as a normal condition rather than an incident.

Vipul Manik Shinde (@Vipulmshinde7) reportedDear @YTcyberSupport @TeamYouTube , I am the legitimate owner of a monetized YouTube channel that is currently associated with a Google/Gmail account that I can no longer access. The problem is related to 2-Step Verification. I have access to the phone number linked to the original Google Account and I receive the OTP on my mobile number. However, after entering the phone OTP, Google sends another verification code to the same Gmail account that I am trying to recover. Since I cannot access that Gmail account, I am unable to complete the recovery process. My YouTube channel and AdSense account are still active, and my payments are being received regularly. However, without access to the original Google Account, I cannot properly manage my YouTube channel and related account settings. I respectfully request that YouTube Support help me transfer my YouTube channel to my new Google Account, which I have full access to. If the associated AdSense account also requires a separate process, please guide me through the official procedure to ensure that my monetization and payment information remain secure and uninterrupted. I am willing to provide any information necessary to verify my ownership of the channel and AdSense account. If this case needs to be handled by a specialist team, please kindly escalate it to the appropriate team or provide me with access to the correct official support form. Thank you very much for your help. Kind regards, Vipul Manik Shinde

Yes, I am Enes (@yes_iamenes) reported@nullbytes00 Actually, thats not the purpose of the tool, if you are trying to replace the Raycast. In Raycast, if you enable any "mini app" like sleep timer via extension, it gives you a shortcut if you will, and also an icon in the bar, so you can easily access that feature. Raycast replaces many other things, and gives their user one, unified, stable, mature mental modal. Why that matters? With Raycast, I use the sleep timer once or twice in a day which is an extension, and I don't want to remember a shortcut for it. On the other hand, sleep timer is not an in app feature, it is independent. So I can easily set my timer via Raycast command. The issue in the SuperCmd is, translate is a feature I use in another app, like my browser. I select the text, and the ONLY way of triggering the translation is the shortcut. What else could trigger it? 1) Right click. 2) Menu bar icon like Raycast, or the SuperCmd menu item in the menubar which triggers notes, snippets etc atm. (I could set it in the settings with a switch like 'show in the bar') 3) I can select the text, trigger the SuperCmd, type translate, click on the translate selection, and the selected text can be moved into the translate screen and translation start automatically. (Lots of click, not my fav, but still a solution) Why it makes sense to have more triggers like above? 1) Your way of using the app is not same with me or anyone else. 2) Not everyone is using a function as much as you imagine, and don't want to assign and use one more shortcut. 3) Everybody has a different mental modal. This is the most important reason. When you go to gmail, there are many ways of deleting an email. Please try it, it is surprising. Imagining like "we have a delete button there, it is obvious and user can use it" is not a good way of thinking from product design perspective. So the real problem here is the lack of flexibility. User is "trapped" in one shortcut mental modal and there is not way out. This is not engineering issue. That's a total product design and UX issue. Cheers.

Agbaje Automation. (@digital_ab98389) reportedI learned a very important lesson while building a proposal automation system with n8n + PandaDoc. The workflow was actually working: information came from our CRM, n8n created the proposal from a PandaDoc template, added the client and engineer as signers, filled in the project details, and created the document successfully. But when we tried to send it, PandaDoc returned a 403 error saying we were not allowed to send the document outside the organization. At first, it looked like our automation was broken. It wasn’t. 👀 The real problem was PandaDoc Sandbox. We were using a testing API key, and Sandbox has restrictions on who can receive documents during testing. Because of that, two Gmail addresses that looked perfectly valid could still be rejected. Once we understood the Sandbox rule, the solution became simple: we tested with the account/domain allowed by the Sandbox instead of rebuilding the workflow. This taught me something I now always check when debugging integrations: a 403 error doesn't always mean your code is wrong. Sometimes the platform is simply enforcing a rule on your account or environment. Understand the API rules before changing working code.

Vitruvius Republic 🇺🇸 (@realMAG1775) reportedNew research just dropped: CSS in emails is a silent bomb. Webmail clients try to sanitize styles so they’re “safe.” Researchers at PortSwigger just showed how those sanitizers can be broken, letting attackers steal login tokens, hijack clicks inside Outlook, track opens, and even pull off attacks with zero JavaScript. Gmail, Outlook, Fastmail, ProtonMail, Yahoo, AOL all in the firing line.

forcher (@fourforch) reportedGoogle asked Gemini Spark to plan a block party. It went through Gmail, built an RSVP sheet, drafted the awkward “you still haven’t replied” emails, made a Slides deck, and even found the HOA rule nobody remembered was sitting in Drive. Boring task. Great agent demo. I wrote down how systems like this are actually built ↓

Alex Vacca (@itsalexvacca) reportedone of the domains in your cold email setup is carrying other people's spam complaints. it's the tracking domain, and your own reporting will never show it. the shared tracking domain your sending platform hands you by default sits on every other customer's links too, so their spam complaints ride into your emails on the same wrapper. your own sending looks clean the whole time. that's step 4 of 8. @Kenny_GTM sets up the cold email infrastructure on every client account we run. we've sent 23M+ cold emails across those campaigns. here's his full build order: 1/ domains buy 10 to 15 for a launch build, 20 for the full spec, all close variations of your brand. keep the primary domain out of the sending path. burning a sending domain is routine and survivable. burning the one your contracts and invoices go through means you spend months repairing your company's email rather than a campaign. 2/ mailboxes run 2 or 3 per domain and never more. past that the domain reads as a sending farm. split the estate 50/50 between google workspace and microsoft 365, because the two filter on different rules. put everything on one provider and one bad filtering week hits all of your capacity instead of half of it. 3/ dns SPF, DKIM and DMARC go on every domain before any mailbox sends, warm-up included. weak copy costs you reply rate over weeks. a domain with no authentication gets flagged on the first send, before anyone opens the email. you read it as a bounce rate that stays high no matter what you change in the copy. 4/ tracking domain the one from the top of this post. teams skip it more than any other step, and skipping it undoes steps 1 through 3. one subdomain you own, configured per sending account. 5/ platform instantly handles pure email. lemlist earns its place when linkedin matters. smartlead comes in when the client brings it. connect every mailbox before warm-up so the platform builds the sending history for you. 6/ rotation and warm-up mailbox rotation goes on from day one so sends spread across the estate. every mailbox then gets 2 weeks minimum before it touches a campaign, and 30 days is the safer number now that gmail puts a warning banner on domains younger than that. cut it short and the failure only surfaces after the campaign is live and the domain is already marked, and warm-up won't repair it from there. you replace the domain and start over. 7/ send limits cap each mailbox at 20 to 25 sends a day. volume comes from mailbox count. 40 mailboxes at that rate sends 800 to 1,000 a day and none of them looks unusual. set the cap inside the platform itself. 8/ placement clear 95%+ in the primary inbox before the first real campaign. anything sitting in spam produces no pipeline at all. if you're running this spec and landing well under 95%, the cause is back in steps 1 through 6. domains get replaced every 9 to 12 months. stagger the replacements, because rotating all 20 at once puts the whole estate back to zero and every new domain still owes you its two weeks of warm-up. the two numbers that break first: > spam rate above 0.1% > bounce rate above 3% both shift weeks before reply rate does. by the time reply rate drops, the damage is a few weeks old and the domain is usually past repairing. all of that is phase 1. phase 2 is data and targeting, phase 3 is the copy. most teams start at phase 3 in week 1, which is why they spend the next month debugging subject lines for a domain problem. you just read phase 1. @Kenny_GTM wrote all three, plus the ten-line weekly dashboard and the numbers that mean you already have a problem. follow him if cold email is a channel you depend on.

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

Alvin (@Alvin1492840) reportedManage your browser tabs or accept that Chrome will eat all your RAM. He had 34 tabs open in Chrome. Chrome was consuming 3.8GB of his laptop's 8GB RAM. That left 4.2GB for Windows and every other app which is why everything was crawling. His roommate said: "Chrome treats every tab as a separate process. 34 tabs means 34 processes. Each one has its own memory allocation. A tab with a YouTube video open is consuming 300-500MB by itself. A tab with Gmail running consumes 200MB. You have 34 of these running simultaneously and you're wondering why your laptop is slow." The fixes: Use tab groups to organize and collapse tabs you're not actively using. Collapsed groups use less active memory. Install a tab manager extension like OneTab which converts all open tabs into a saved list, freeing the memory. One click to restore any tab when you need it. Close any tab you haven't looked at in the last hour. If you're afraid of losing it, bookmark it. A bookmark uses 0 RAM. An open tab uses 100-500MB. He said: "He went from 34 open tabs to 8. Chrome's RAM usage dropped from 3.8GB to 1.1GB. His laptop instantly felt twice as fast because his apps finally had memory to work with."

Efe (@efexeth) reportedLet me give you my take about the fud some people are on about @RealBucketShop First off, all of this is hand-made :) not written by some language model, and not addressed to those living organisms who are trying to make a living out of throwing dirt at others with a broken heart and soul. if they take what they can take, thats on them. If you want to learn how cool it is to KNOW, and protect yourself from false information, continue reading. if you dont, just stop right here, and all the best for ya. It will be so easy to comprehend as I will give solid examples. Regarding "similarities". Real edge in businesses whether its small or big, primarily comes from "variety" and "solving more problems", the ones who trusts their position like it doesnt change, and dont improve, were cannibalized at the end of the day.. Let me give you some examples, since im some 40+ year old.. Zoom.. It came after Skype (never heard?), when video meetings were booming.. but after that, Zoom made it way simpler, more reliable, more businessy. Photo sharing.. It already existed on Facebook, but Instagram made it mobile first, visuals first, and built an entire social network out of it. Fun fact. Social networking was also present before Facebook, and people used it for long years, Myspace! Do you know Myspace? It was SUPERB!.. Moving on.. Google, you think there was no search engine before? Have you ever heard of Altavista, or even Yahoo? No? Okay. Now you know Google made it faster, and performed much better at ranking results, and started pioneering.. Gmail is also after Yahoo mail, note that as well.. (same mechanics? :)) not finished.. another one most of you never heard, is Napster. Do you know what Napster was? Digital music was already there, but new SaaS models, like Spotify, Youtube Music, etc. today is ruling that environment. Again, not finished.. Have you ever heard Craigslist? People were posting rentals, jobs, the whole shebang.. meaning, home and room rentals were already there, but AIRBNB still appeared, no? have you ever heard the founders story? how they got influenced? INFLUENCED? thats your homework. go check it out. hint: craigslist :) Another hilarious part, fudding with UI.. oh, dear. just know how they want to play with perceptions, living in spider web, and still decide on your own. examples, right. uniswap, sushiswap, pancakeswap and tons of other dexs REALLY USE SO DIFFERENT UIs WOW! so they dont use basic token in and out swap card because there are soooo many ways to present a sensible swap? :) instagram, tiktok, yt shorts? no? full screen vertical media with engagement button on the side? no? no? but no? :) amazon? and rest 93842943829423834298432 e-commerce sites? image to title to cart to purchase, almost identical listing, and flow? again, no? :) okay and the last one.. coinbase, kraken and binance. maybe they are structurally similar too, because order books, charts, balances, and what not have natural places to go? but really. one thing. Samsung, after Apple? no? :) take good care of yourself, and your family. all the best.

Backend Systems Developer (@PalksDev) reported@Warmy_io Yes, IMAP clearly became the better choice for multi-device synchronization, but that doesn't mean POP3 was a bad solution. In some environments, retrieving emails directly was actually more predictable and reliable than relying on simple server-side forwarding to Gmail, with all the filtering, blocking, or delivery issues that can come with it. That said, modern tools have also made these scenarios much easier to manage, which is why IMAP is now the preferred solution for most users.
