  Google should seriously just shut down all Gmail use in the state. I bet the legislature would fold, and it would certainly prove a point.

  I asked @ManusAI a data security question: now that the reported Meta/Manus deal appears to be in an unwind/disentanglement process, could any Chinese government authority have access to my data if I connect services like Gmail? The answer I got was surprising. Manus said: “Manus is not a Meta company, nor was it ever.” But this seems inconsistent with public information. Manus’s own website says “Manus is now part of Meta,” and its own blog announced that “Manus is joining Meta.” Media has also reported that Meta acquired Manus for around $2B, before Chinese regulators later ordered the deal to be unwound. So the concern is not simply “China” or “ @Meta.” The concern is factual clarity. For a product that asks users to connect Gmail, Google Drive, Slack, and other sensitive workflows, corporate status and data governance cannot be vague. This may just be an AI hallucination or an outdated answer. But for a privacy question, that is exactly the problem. Does anyone know - if that is normal?

  Before 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:👇

  I just got an email reply that reminded me why I actually do this. It was from a girl named Roos. She replied to one of my automated funnels for Beter Turnen. The email I sent was a standard sequence. Talking about lesson prep, saving time, and offering a trial for my platform. Real "founder marketing" stuff. Her reply: "Jo, I want you to know that I'm really sorry but I can't gymnastics anymore. My knee has a very bad injury so unfortunately I have to delete your gmail too otherwise I get too much storage sorry 😔" It hit me. We talk about funnels, conversion rates, and "leads" all day. We look at dashboards and see numbers moving up or down. But on the other side of that automation is a person who feels like they owe you an apology because they can't use your product anymore. Roos didn't just unsubscribe. She felt a connection enough to explain why she was leaving. She was worried about her storage space, but more worried about letting me know why she couldn't follow the lessons. Automation usually feels cold. But if you write like a human, people respond like humans. Even when they’re leaving. That’s the goal. Building something that people actually care about losing.

  @neilcybart Yep, using Apple Mail, have three email accounts on there including Gmail. Downloaded the beta last Monday, got Siri AI after a couple of days. Still indexing but it doesn’t seem to be affecting the performance of the battery or slowing performance of the phone so it’s not an issue for me.

  @IceSolst major mail service providers like gmail have made all these mostly-pointless things a soft requirement to run your own mail server. dkim is about attribution, so no server can claim after the fact that they/their user did not send the mail. it's a scheme to ruin self hosting.

  A beginner’s stack for digital privacy and countering the state’s attempt to restrict your online anonymity: 1) Buy a Pixel in cash, preferably second hand. Facebook marketplace or one of those sole trader phone shops. No contract / finance. 2) Install GrapheneOS on your new pixel. Transfer all of your private affairs here e.g if you’re an activist. Signal, telegram, crypto wallet (if that’s your thing), etc etc. 3) Maintain your old phone for every-day affairs. Your bank account, your Facebook account, Uber, that thing. Take this with you for most things, keep your Pixel at home. 4) Switch your email, at least for your private affairs, away from gmail/outlook/etc towards a privacy-first provider. I haven’t done this yet but I know ProtonMail is used by many, but there may be better providers out there. Switch your private accounts to that email. 5) Buy a cheap sim, most shops will sell them. They’re £2 or so, pennies. Don’t take a plan out. Just switch your number on your private accs to the number of the new sim. Put that sim in your Pixel. That gives full security for your accs and separation of public/priv. 6.1) Install Mullvad VPN or your preferred choice, once again, if you use crypto, Mullvad will let you pay this way. It’s around £5/mo. Enable it on both phones and any other devices. 6.2) You could also rent a server from AWS etc for around £5/month and set up a unique VPN with an IP not used by any other service. I’m looking into it myself, I’m not an expert on it, or any of this really. 7) Make the switch from Windows / MacOS to a a more private and fun alternative! Linux is the most obvious. I’ve been looking into Linux Mint myself. It’s not as scary as it looks at first glance! 8) Check out ‘Nostr’ for privacy oriented, alternative platforms. I won’t say much on that as my knowledge is amateur. Good men have suggested it o me though, see the first 2 people below! — I’ve learnt this all very recently, scouring accounts of those smarter than I. I’ll suggest following @derekmross, @freddienew & @augusteprompt. Auguste isn’t a tech account exactly but still valuable.

  Step 5. Create profile: Fill out your details as it is on your valid ID. Make sure you create a new Gmail to open your account with. Do not use your main email because you might need someone to login into your account at some point and they’ll need access to that email. Keep your privacy. Verify identity: Continue the identity verification on your phone by scanning the QR Code (for people in UK use share code it’s easier and faster. For people in Canada, use driver’s license or provincial permit) Verify skills: Take the communication assessment in any language you’re comfortable with even if it’s Hausa, Igbo, or Yoruba.

  A silent technical bug cost me 5 client leads over the past month. My business email stopped delivering to Gmail. No bounce. No error. Emails were sent, I just never received them. Hosting changed something server-side. Everything looked fine from the outside. The fix took minutes. The damage was already done. The lesson: test your business email regularly. Send a test message. Click your own contact form. Don't assume it works because it used to.

  @RobInArizona @stetsondoggett Greetings from the west valley 👋🏻 Any idea how I can overcome this baffling state of affairs with Google Fi, Rob / Stetson ? On Monday of this week, I signed up for Google Fi, drawn in by their current 50% discount offer. I even created a brand-new Gmail account solely for this purpose. Thankfully, I decided to test the service first rather than port my long-standing number. The eSIM downloaded and activated without issue, and initially everything worked perfectly—data, calls, and texts. Then yesterday morning, Wednesday, out of nowhere, I received an email saying my account had been suspended due to “suspicious activity.” This makes no sense whatsoever: the Gmail account was brand new, used only for Fi, contained only Fi-related emails, and I hadn’t even sent a single message from it. I submitted an appeal at 09:20 AM using an alternative email address (since the new Gmail was, of course, locked). At 10:31 PM, I was told the appeal had been successful and access restored, with instructions to log back in immediately. Except I couldn’t. When I tried, I was blocked from receiving a security code because there had supposedly been “too many attempts.” At that point, I called Google Fi support. After a short wait, I was told that neither my email address nor my Google Fi phone number existed in their system. Which is remarkable, because I was literally calling them using the Google Fi eSIM at that very moment—data and texts still working perfectly too. This understandably confused the support agent, whose only advice was to “wait 24 hours and see what happens.” I was also promised a case ID by email, which, unsurprisingly, has yet to arrive. At this point, I have zero confidence in Google Fi. I want to cancel the service, but in a fittingly absurd twist, I currently can’t even access the account to do so, as at 6.50 PM MST today, Thursday.

  Your longer chats aren't smarter. They're dumber. Here are the 12 wrong facts you (still) believe: 1. LONGER CHAT → not smarter ☑ One chat = one task. Finish it after getting done. ☑ Need the context? Ask for a 5-line summary, paste it into a fresh chat. Faster AND cheaper. 2. CLAUDE AGREEING → not a proof you're right ☑ "Argue the strongest case against this. Be harsh." ☑ Test: if it can't find a flaw, your idea isn't ready. 3. CONFIDENT → not always correct ☑ Prompt with: "Rate your confidence 1–10 & what change would you make to your answer." ☑ A 6/10 with reasons beats a 10/10 with vibes. 4. PROMPTING → you don't need to learn it ☑ You only need 4 words: "Ask me questions first." ☑ Claude interviews you. You click. That's it. 5. LONGER PROMPT → not a better prompt ☑ Don't write "do step 1, then 2." Write the end goal ☑ "Make this report something my CEO screenshots." It's smarter than your directions. 6. BROWSER → switch to Claude app ☑ The Claude app builds the real file in your folder. ☑ The browser makes you copy-paste. ☑ Make a folder, call it "cowork," point Claude at it. Now it ships .xlsx, .pptx, .pdf - for real. 7. CHAT → not the whole building ☑ Chat is floor 1: Cowork, Skills, Code are upstairs. ☑ Open the app, click Cowork (the whole upgrade). 8. SKILLS → build one tonight, no code ☑ Type /skill-creator and say: "Teach Claude to do [your task] the way I like it. Ask me questions first." ☑ Now it fires on its own when the task fits. 9. PASTING LOGINS → never do this ☑ Never paste a password. No need to explain why. ☑ That's literally what connectors are for. ☑ Customize → Connectors → connect Gmail, Calendar, Drive properly. 10. AI → keep the understanding ☑ Outsource the typing. Not the understanding. ☑ Don't ship what you can't explain. After answers: "Explain this to me like I'll be questioned on it." 11. FIRST DRAFT → it's the starting line ☑ The first draft is yours to fix, not to ship. ☑ Prompt: "What's the weakest part of this? Fix it." 12. TOO FAR BEHIND → no, you're not ☑ The bar to 'knowing how' is to try it. ☑ Open Claude tonight. Not Monday. Tonight. Quick gut-check before you scroll: If you nodded at even 3 of these, that's not a 'you' problem - nobody told you.

  Kenny Burchard (@KennyBurchard) reported 1 hour ago

  This is true. I have officially built a bulk mail server for just me that functions 100% like constant contact or mail chimp in every possible way that I have been able to detect, using AI. It cost me less than $100 to build it. It costs only 10 cents for every 1000 emails I send. Every email service (aol, hotmail, yahoo, Microsoft, gmail) recognizes it as a legit service. It’s called KennyBMail I log in to my dashboard which I can design however I want. It has one user and one account. Me and mine. I can do drip campaigns, single emails, weekly newsletters and whatever else you can think of. It uses all the structure blocks, tests, formats, resends, click and open trackers, reports. Everything. You name it this service does it. My gated content has put over 650 new emails into it in 3 weeks while I sleep. For a small YouTube channel that has given me an entirely new way to reach people in my audience. AI knows every language. Every human language and every coding language in every human language. It knows how everything in the domain of coding and programming works. Everything. It’s not perfect but it works. It would have cost me tens of thousands of dollars to have a company build this. I built it with AI in 9 days during down time. If you know how to tell it what to do (not everyone does) - then if you can think it, you can build it. I know nothing about building this kind of stuff and still did it because I know how to articulate what I want it to do and how to tell it when something isn’t right.
