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.

Peter (@peter) reportedI’m not sure what Google’s plan for AI in Gmail is, but their “AI inbox” isn’t it. Completely irrelevant notifications, some highlighting “deadlines” from 5 days ago, while actually urgent stuff gets missed. Terrible intro to Gmail AI as a user. I’ve already turned it off.

Usman Nawaz (@usman_n93) reported@JPEGuin @aaronp613 Why there is no option of sign in other than Sign in with Apple. Like Gmail or Outlook or auto sync with iCloud?

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.

dani97 (@bgbvmdpmfv) reported@KaedeSakura9 @Kakutvd It's saying the exact same thing for me, too. Even though everything is linked, and I'm logged in with my Apple account, it doesn't even work with Gmail. I don't know, something is seriously broken over there.

Vaelle ・゚:* (@_meditabonda) reported@GRothstein1 I'd like to try your app, but I noticed the only sign-up options are Gmail and Snapchat. Is there any chance you could add other login methods?

Tâm an -Ambassador of InterLink Labs -ID:921 921 (@tranhaithuan899) reported@Vyx_Crypto @inter_link 🔥Currently, creating two-factor authentication (2FA) is experiencing errors; Gmail is not sending the necessary 6-digit OTP code to create 2FA. You should add an option to this feature so we can transfer our remaining balance to our wallet. Thank you.

wast3 (@0xWast3) reportedA FOUNDER COMPLETELY AUTOMATED HIS INBOX AND HAS NOT READ AN EMAIL MANUALLY IN MONTHS He realized he was burning hours every morning just sorting through newsletters, client requests, and spam. So he handed the entire workflow over to an autonomous AI agent using Claude's Cowork framework. Instead of relying on basic inbox filters, he connected the official Gmail integration and scheduled a silent task to run every day at 7 AM. Before he even wakes up, the agent scans every unread message, ranks them by actual urgency, and drafts personalized replies in his exact tone of voice. The best part is the safety layer. The agent does not send anything blindly. When he sits down at his desk, a fully curated list of drafts is just waiting for his final approval. Total control, zero inbox anxiety. See the exact setup and prompt he uses to build this daily automation below 👇

Prajwal Tomar (@PrajwalTomar_) reportedI built this in a single day. Gmail inbox triage. Auto-tagged leads. Kanban pipeline. Synced to a Google Sheets lead tracker. Two years ago agencies would have quoted 2 months and $15K for this. Lovable is not a UI builder anymore. You can build literally ANYTHING inside it. I've used it almost daily for over a year. Shipped 50+ MVPs with it. For clients. For myself. For the agency. I finally wrote down the whole system. Every tip. Every mistake. Every shortcut I wish I knew on day one. Full breakdown in the article below.

Peter Kasen (@PeterKasen) reported@HuddledMasses2 There was an attempted hack of my email on Gmail last night! Google notified me before the hack was able to get the code. Everything is fine. It was from Jersey City, NJ? Odd. I just wanted you to know to lock your label email down for a few days just in case!

yurii | quacks.app (@kyparus) reporteddeadline for @alliance applications in 19 days top 3 easy-to-fix issues I saw in Alliance applications: 1. Use Gmail or Outlook instead of your own domain email. It signals a lack of confidence in your project. If you're not confident, why would anyone else be? 2. Low-effort website. A high-quality, pattern-breaking website with attention to detail is one of the few things that gives early-stage projects asymmetric returns. If you're not good enough to build a cutting-edge website in 2026, how are you going to build a 10x product? 3. Claiming unrealistic traction - e.g. more whitelisted or monthly users than X followers. You lose trust immediately, and the rest of the application becomes hard to believe. 5 pro tips in replies👇 p.s. personal observations - not Alliance's official view

Broken Souls (@BrokenSoulxy) reportedSo about the Gmail. Everything I explained should give clarity to the fact that at some point the situation since it’s not a relationship for me is depleting and when the only way to go is down, you need to keep yourself from crashing into the floor.

Steve Skojec (@SteveSkojec) reportedI haven’t used my laptop in months. I’m a desktop PC guy. But I’m somewhere today where I needed the laptop, so I brought it with me, and I’ve spent the past half hour going through broken Microsoft protocol loops and multi-factor authentication hell just to get into my own computer. Literally NOTHING changed. I just haven’t used it in a while. But it wouldn’t even accept my normal pin without resetting everything. My Authenticator wouldn’t work without a new Outlook sign in, which wouldn’t work without an Authenticator code. I couldn’t get a passkey out of LastPass without verifying why I was signing in from a new location (even though I entered the correct password.) But I couldn’t get into my Gmail account to verify without another multifactor authentication process. I’m pretty damn tech savvy, but even I couldn’t get through this labyrinth of security bullshit without asking Grok for help finding the missing steps. What the hell are old folks supposed to do? Or people who haven’t been building PCs and managing software issues for a long time? At one point, I was forced to solve multiple asinine visual puzzles to “prove I’m not a robot” just so I could access one of the prerequisite accounts. Our technological landscape is simultaneously ubiquitous and totally impossible. We’ve created an absolute nightmare for ourselves, and I hate it.

Adebanjo Marvellous (@marveldcreator) reportedClaude: 26 tricks Almost nobody gets past Claude hack 6: 1Run the Claude Desktop app. The browser is just the demo. Cowork lives in the app. 2Use Cowork, not the chat box. If you're still typing into a chat window, you're using it like it's 2025. 3Long threads make it dumber. The longer the convo, the weaker the answers. Anthropic's own prompt engineers said it. 4Start fresh often. Bloated threads don't just confuse Claude, they quietly burn your credits. 5A token is basically a word. Everything you send and everything it sends back costs money. Stop typing "how are you." 6Here's where most people quit reading: stop giving step by step instructions. Give it the goal and get out of the way. Steps drag it back to the old Claude. 7Throw it your hardest, longest task. The stuff that makes your head hurt. That's exactly where Claude wins. 8Kill the 500 word prompts. A tight, clear problem beats a long ramble every time. Tell it what you want, not how to do it. 9It barely tells you this: use positive instructions. "Do X," never "don't do Y." Action verbs get action. 10Turn on Research mode (the '+' bottom left). Ask it something genuinely hard and just watch. 11Skills fire on their own. You don't prompt them. Type /command. Done. 12Drop AskUserQuestion into your prompt so Claude interviews you first. It prompts itself better than you ever will. 13One folder. Three subfolders. That's the whole system. People love to overcomplicate it. 14The about me file changes everything. Tell it who you are, what you love, what you can't stand. Same task, completely different answer. 15Then trim that about me file. An overloaded profile is as useless as no profile. 16Switch on Connectors. Claude can read your Gmail and Slack now. Almost nobody turns this on. 17Name every output and the exact order you want them in. Vague in, vague out. 18"Thinking" is hiding under '+' as "thinking." Hard task? Flip it on. 19For the heavy stuff, run Opus. 20It will sound 100% certain even when it's dead wrong. Make it audit its own answer before you trust a single line. 21Agreement is not accuracy. Claude wants to please you. That's not the same as being right. 22The first draft is yours to fix, not to ship. Every time. 23The one rule that actually matters: outsource the thinking, never the understanding. 24Claude is built for coding and knowledge work, not health. Use it for what it's actually good at. 25Use Projects. Load your brand, your offer, your frameworks once and every new chat starts already knowing you. 26Save anything you'll reuse as an Artifact. Then you edit it next time instead of starting from scratch.

Frank O'Connor (@HusbandOfAyn) reportedDear @Tesla your new car process sucks. My wife is buying a Y. Things went south when she used GPay to pay the 500 bucks or whatever. She was switched to her Gmail, which isn't her Tesla account, she's on my CT and has an account through her main email. Then, it routed everything to an address from 10 years ago. We'll that's not going to work. So then we spent an hour with a person, we had to complete a new Tesla account just to merge it. It took my wife over 4 hours to buy a model Y. This system is ****. Does it work? Yes. It's it user proof? **** no. My wife has PTSD of her phone browser tab closing and losing what she was working on in the TSLA app. If Tesla's going to under sell or not pay for salesman or people who answer the phone on a buy-in, then the system has to be perfect. It is not perfect. I deal with this also because I have to use the Tesla app to submit issues with my cyber truck. I'd rather use a web browser on my main pc because the app is horrible. I'm not allowed to. This is retarded. Dear TSLA, you succeed, I succeed. Investor from week 1. This is a problem.
