ccx15 (@codecrackx15) reportedOne of the great things about Proton Mail (The Proton Suite) is that I can create additional emails under my main email, and they all function from inside my main email box. For instance… my Gmail is NOT my name. So I’ve used that for quite a bit of stuff. Also, I found out early on that spammers trend to target emails with names in them (not a super big issue if the spam catcher is competent and not called Outlook). Proton is under my name. So moving some stuff to it… Substack for instance, would put that out on every email list. I don’t want that. Problem solved Proton’s Identity and addresses feature. I simply create my old gmail address with a Proton address (it was available) and then I change it to that in all the services my gmail is in. On the Proton Ultimate plan, you can create up to 15 identity addresses. Another perk… Create one for jobs sites and LinkedIn, especially when you are job hunting. Once you find a job, hit the down arrow next to that address in the control panel and disable that address, thereby stopping all that spammy junk that job sites send to you. I've added Proton's X link below. Privacy should be at the top of your list going forward, so go check them out. @ProtonPrivacy

StuyBoy From NYC (@StuyBoyNY) reported@neil_xbt Agent Reach is that open-source CLI/skill that gives agents no-API-key scraping across Twitter/X, Reddit, YouTube, GitHub, Bilibili, XiaoHongShu and 10+ platforms, with MCP server wrappers . For your Hermes/MCP stack, here’s the honest read: Real risks: •Prompt injection — it pipes raw scraped web content straight into your agent’s context. A malicious post/comment can carry instructions your agent might follow. This is the #1 agent attack vector right now, and Hermes has Gmail + terminal access. •Supply chain — agents can install/update it themselves via one command . Third-party code, community-maintained scrapers, auto-updating with agent-level permissions. Audit before install, pin the version, kill auto-update. •ToS/account exposure — unofficial scrapers violate platform terms. Run it on burner sessions/IPs, never accounts you care about. •Chinese platform modules — Bilibili/XHS scrapers phone Chinese endpoints. You keep a Western-only stack; disable those modules.

Dexter Fret (@Dec1pher7) reported@kof_afk I need assistance. I was trying to login on my Ipad and my Iphone player account was not coming up via my gmail. I tried other logins to see if maybe it was another and it wasn't. When I went to play on my phone, my data was gone. I have my PID, USN, and Server Id.

Crypto Guru 𓊈𒆜🐙𒆜𓊉 (@benjoseph536) reportedEvery group chat has that one person who asks, "Can someone summarize this?" The problem isn't getting a summary. It's stopping what you're doing, opening another app, copying the document, waiting for a response, then pasting it back into the chat. Mira removes all of that. Just mention @mira_t_me in your Telegram chat, ask it to summarize the file, and it responds right there in the conversation. That's what I find interesting about Mira. It isn't trying to replace Telegram... it extends it. Whether it's summarizing documents, helping with discussions, or connecting to tools like Gmail, Calendar, Drive, and Sheets, the goal is to let you stay where the conversation is already happening. AI feels far more useful when it becomes part of your workflow instead of another app you have to open. #MiraInTelegram

Subscribr (@SubscribrAI) reportedJapan is one of the most technologically advanced countries on Earth... So naturally, the fastest growing "ancient Japanese wisdom" channel on YouTube has no Japanese people involved at all 10,200 subscribers. 19 videos. 800,000 views in 60 days. No presenter. No face. No camera. Just stock footage of lawns and driveways, an AI voice, and a channel called "The Japanese Method" teaching Americans how to fix their gardens using techniques that have almost nothing to do with Japan. And the audience does not care, because he sells an ebook and they buy it. A country famous for engineering, robotics, and precision is being repackaged as folk wisdom by a faceless channel selling $30 guidebooks to homeowners in Ohio. And it is outperforming 99% of channels run by actual gardeners. People do not trust cleaning brands anymore. They do not trust product reviews or sponsored ads. The one thing that still cuts through is an authority frame — a phrase like "the Japanese method" or "the Amish way" that implies ancient wisdom the audience has never heard before. Your brain runs the same trust loop whether the wisdom is real or invented. Now the money. A faceless channel this size in a normal niche pulls $400 to $600 a month from ads. A grocery bill. The ebook is the whole business. sells "The Complete Japanese Method guidebook." $30 per copy. At 0.5% conversion on 400,000 monthly views, that is $6,000 a month from the ebook alone. And the channel is scaling. In 90 days that number crosses $15,000 a month. Same views, same videos, 20x the revenue AdSense would produce. Here is the exact playbook. Step 1. Pick the niche on math, not passion. Target 35 to 65 year old homeowners in the US, UK, Canada, Australia. They spend on their homes. They read ebooks. They fall for authoritative sounding traditions. Step 2. Build a brand around an authority frame instead of a face. Japanese method. Amish secret. Nordic tradition. Ancient Roman technique. Any cultural label that implies wisdom the audience has never heard before. The label carries the trust. You never need a presenter. Step 3. Use ONE consistent voice and visual style across every video. Same AI voice. Same thumbnail template. Same intro. Same outro. Recognizable in one clip. This separates a legitimate faceless brand from the AI slop YouTube is wiping out by the thousands. Step 4. Warm up the account for 7 days before uploading. Real gmail. Watch videos in the niche. Subscribe to 10 to 15 channels. Post on day 8. Check impressions at 48 hours. Above 500 means the channel is alive. Under 500 means restart with a new gmail. Step 5. Attach the ebook from video 1. The Japanese Method sells the guidebook before the audience even shows up. The model only hits $10,000 a month when there is something to buy the moment trust kicks in. Step 6. Post 2x a week for 10 videos. Read the outliers. Double down. The lawn video pulled 357,000 views at 8.5x the channel average. The next 5 videos should be about lawns and outdoor maintenance. The algorithm just told them what the channel is. The window is the entire point. Faceless channels with strong authority frames are still underbuilt on YouTube long form. The Japanese Method is one of a handful of channels proving the play works while everyone else argues about whether AI content is allowed. It is. YouTube is not anti-AI. YouTube is anti-slop. A consistent faceless brand with an authority frame, a niche voice, and a real ebook is exactly what the classifier wants to see. A completely made up "Japanese cleaning tradition" figured out YouTube before most real gardeners with actual expertise and a real product.

FATHELA ESQ (@AmControo) reportedBefore you pay for extra Gmail storage, check this first. Before you pay for extra Gmail storage, check this first. Before you pay for extra Gmail storage, check this first. Google storage fills up quietly, and many people rush to pay without checking what is actually consuming the space. Most people blame Gmail, but the real problem is often somewhere else. With one proper clean-up, you can free up a surprising amount of storage in less than ten minutes. Here is the method:👇

Farhan Tawfeeq ✦ (@farhantawfeeq56) reportedI just found this hidden tactic @gmail uses to save me from a bad email. The “Undo” button. Turns out that the Undo button isn’t undoing your email because technically, there is no way you can undo your sent email. So, Gmail pulled the greatest move: Instead of immediately transmitting the email to the recipient's mail server, Gmail waits for a small amount of time (5, 10, 20, or 30 seconds). And then if you feel like you have made a mistake, you can just undo the mistake by clicking undo option. Gmail just simply cancels the scheduled send. The email would have never left Google's servers. This is genius UX. Here are 3 main things you don’t notice in that UX: First of all, it makes user wait for a very small time. Because sending a wrong email isn’t something a sane human will do often. They do it maybe once in a while. That’s why they have that schedule for a very short period of time. Then there is that small toast notification at the bottom. It doesn’t take the entire view. It just is a small notification below. It supports the user's primary task while quietly preserving reversibility. It doesn’t compete for attention. Because if you sent the right email, your mental model will be next email and you will ignore the notification. But if you have sent the wrong one, you will search for any way to reverse. And the toast notification is enough for you to notice. Also, they have intentionally avoided a confirmation step. Imagine your email asking confirmation like do you want to surely send this email? every time you send an email. What if you send 80 emails a day. Gmail might not have been this popular if they did that move. Instead, they choose to just have an undo option. This is a great example of UX which is invisible to the user, but delivers insane value. Image: Google Blog

Atishay (@axtalks) reportedif you're emailing dentists, HVAC, local agencies, contractors, most advice you hear is optimized for mid-market or enterprise. SMB outbound is a different environment. different data, different inbox stacks, different buying behavior. the biggest mistake is list sourcing. Apollo and ZoomInfo style databases are usually thin for local SMBs and everyone spams the same tiny pool. you pull "dentists in California" and get a tiny list. meanwhile the actual count of practices is far higher, so every marketer ends up blasting the same narrow pool. even if your copy is good, you're stepping into a crowded, damaged dataset. what works better: build lists from where SMBs already list themselves. association member directories, licensing and registry lists when public, vendor partner directories, conference exhibitor lists, niche find-a-provider directories, chamber of commerce directories. less competition, clearer intent. segment by the prospect's MX and security, not just your sender setup. SMBs are a mix. some on Google Workspace, some on Microsoft, some route through security layers like Barracuda, Mimecast, Proofpoint. before you scale, sample your list and check MX records. google workspace prospects: newer domains tend to survive better. heavy gateways: new domains get punished faster, use older warmed domains and lower volume. generic emails are not bad for SMBs. info@ and contact@ often go to the owner or a tiny team. even public gmail addresses on websites and facebook pages can be the actual operator in SMB land. track a metric that tells the truth. open rates are noise. use PCPL (prospects contacted per positive) = total prospects contacted divided by positive replies. we aim for under 500 PCPL as a sanity line. if PCPL is high and total reply rate (including OOO) is under 2%: deliverability issue. if reply rate is ok but positives are low: offer or list is the problem. don't over-follow-up SMB owners. two touches usually beats long sequences. email 1, one follow up, then recycle later (8 to 12 weeks) with a different angle. speed matters. when they reply positively, respond and call fast. SMB intent windows are short. this is for SMBs specifically. if you use the generic email approach on enterprise IT or security, you'll get blocked.

Carla Alvarez - Raised to Walk (@RaisedtoWalk) reportedGreat, so two services I use, @MEGAprivacy and @ProtonPrivacy, are using the same lame ***, engagement faking social media company I mean, they can't even get BRAND colors right So let me guess, this is how lame asses run They get a client that has a service they want to target and infiltrate. Through that, they make contacts within the company and find out who is for sale and or is easily compromised. Then they use that person to get access to or target whatever they want. And I say that because after years or using Mega sync, my account is not syncing. It's not a "glitch, it's a pattern. It seems like someone has an admin organization access to my Proton account because I can't access organizational features that I should be able to I'm told nothing is wrong with the account I report a STOLEN HOUSE to the Oregon AG, I get a response from Rachel Viggiano, office support specialist and wannabe actress that the Oregon Attorney General "doesn't handle such things." No one needs high tech hacking skills when there is an easily corruptible human available that is far more useful Lame asses just access @gmail accounts at will. They can't do that with Proton, so they have to find someone to give them access. And while all the emails may be encrypted, if someone is added as a user, or owner, to the account, then they would actually have access. You can have all the protocols and security in the world. But as any church administrator or pastor can tell you, the real danger is from within, because that is where there is built in trust Security protocols are the first step, but the real rest of the integrity of any organization is what they do when those protocols fail and a human is a human and acts on that fallen human nature. As we continually see, a far too high number of churches fail in that regard Companies have to decide if they will choose the path of light and transparency or continue in darkness
