vova (@dtcvova) reportedBest campaigns to run on Google right now for ecom are Demand Gen. Said it before and I'll keep saying it. No search volume ceiling. YouTube, Discover, Gmail. Way less saturated than Meta. Brands spending $100k a month on it and seeing CPAs that didn't exist on those surfaces 2 years ago. But every week I talk to someone who tried it and said it doesn't work. And every single time, they sent cold YouTube traffic straight to a product page. Those people were not searching for you. You interrupted them. Someone mid scroll watching a video is not in the same headspace as someone who typed your product into Google 30 seconds ago. Sales pages. Advertorials. Copy that earns trust before it asks for money. The format isn't broken. You're just sending traffic to the wrong place and blaming the channel.

Coobyk (@Coobyk_) reported@powerm1nt I've been using them for a while and haven't encountered any issues. It's an email service and a drive service after all. But I'm mostly using Gmail again now cuz it's easier to integrate with AI agents for free.

Joysulem - The Demon Lord VT (@Joysulem) reported@Shocktrue @TwitchSupport Sounds like a personal problem. In 2026 Gmail literally asks for your phone number for recovery. Banks, Discord and almost every major service does the same. If you can’t verify a simple account, maybe your views shouldn’t count toward a streamer’s analytics and monetization. Or… are we protecting the viewbot side here? 🤔 You can literally buy a prepaid phone for $30 if you’re worried about privacy. No monthly contract needed. Real viewers can verify in 30 seconds. Bot farms cannot scale it cheaply.

VTuber Research Club (@The_VTRC) reportedAn update on everything: John’s personal Discord and Gmail accounts remain unrecovered as of this moment as we wait for support from Discord and Google. None of the accounts of any other VTRC members have been affected. John’s access to our business accounts was also removed before any could be accessed, which includes both the robot platform and our payment platform. As for the VTRC Discord server, the attacker revoked admin permissions for all other accounts. Since John’s account was the server owner, nothing could be done to stop it. The attacker then proceeded to delete any message in the server which attempted to warn everyone else and ban the accounts that posted them. Meanwhile, the attacker posed as John and continued to send direct messages to server members and John’s contacts to spread the malicious file which compromised several people’s PCs. We are currently using a new Discord server since we currently have no way of removing John’s compromised account from our original server. Upcoming events will be posted and conducted in the new server that is now linked to this profile. The Super Battle Golf tournament that was originally scheduled for this weekend will also be in the new server but will have to be postponed due to a staff illness. New dates will be announced soon. Please remain vigilant and stay safe. Those who took John’s account are still at it. Do not click any links or download any files unless you are 100% sure they are safe. Verify the identity of anyone who sends you a message. Make sure who you are talking to is actually who you think you are talking to. If you still have sensitive information in a DM, delete those individual messages immediately. Lastly, we’d like to apologize to everyone. We at the VTRC take pride in the trust many of you have bestowed upon us. We know this is not easily earned, and after recent events, it is only fair that you withdraw such trust. We recognize that we have failed to ensure the safety of our community. We promise to do better and hope our actions moving forward will show our commitment to everyone’s safety and wellbeing. Thank you.

Fast Poker (@FastdotPoker) reported@sir_wen_moon our email provider is currently throttling Gmail, so delivery to @gmail addresses is slow right now. If you want your email faster, use a non-Gmail address (Outlook, iCloud, ProtonMail, etc). Gmail ones will still come through, just delayed.

VC Intern (@the_vc_intern) reported@OpenAI the gmail integration for personalized responses is the part that will drive the most adoption among professionals - being able to pull context from past conversations AND email threads changes what "assistant" means for knowledge workers. Rolling to Plus/Pro first then down to free.

tetsuo (@tetsuoai) reportedGrok Connectors quick rundown. xAI shipped native app connections. OAuth your Gmail, Calendar, Drive, GitHub, Notion, Slack, Linear, Microsoft directly into Grok. MCP for custom servers. Grok starts using your tools. Live data, scoped permissions, revoke anytime. Useful patterns: "summarize yesterday across email, calendar, notion" "open github issues assigned to me" "calendar this week, flag conflicts" "draft a reply to the last slack from x" The MCP side lets you plug Grok into any server speaking the protocol. Custom internal tools, your own infra.

Non-consing robot @phenlix@mastodon.online (@phenlix) reported@_Felipe This is not about the count being wrong, but inconsistent. Gmail user to gave the same issue: side bar showing 3 unread messages, but clicking on Inbox only showed 2. You could sense the uneven replication of Spanner indexes.

FireNymph13 (@FireNymph13) reported@Robbfix001 @discord And that's unfortunately not even the main issue of why I'm in a panic trying to contact them, I received a VERY horrid message from someone claiming to be the Safety team and says that it was sent with the "App" tag, but lists a gmail account and some legit horrifying stuff.

Tom Alder (@tomaldertweets) reportedI vibe-coded a tool that got me 250k impressions the next day. Here's exactly how it works - and the prompt I used to build it. I used to lose 45 minutes every morning scrolling Reddit for content ideas. I asked Perplexity Computer to build me a tool that would do it for me. 2 evenings. 5 conversations. 0 code I wrote myself. Perplexity called it Reddit Radar: → Scans 20 tech subreddits at 6am → Ranks trending visuals by potential → Writes 5 hook angles per saved visual → Syncs directly into my Notion pipeline Now my morning routine is 3 minutes with a coffee. Tap through the ranked posts, save what I like, choose from the best hooks. The next morning I posted one. It did 250,000 impressions and 500+ engagements. What's wild: I never picked the stack. Perplexity Computer chose Claude Sonnet for the hook gen, React + Tailwind for the frontend, Express + SQLite for the backend, Notion API, Gmail API, a cron job, and Python to parse Reddit RSS. All by itself. When the save function broke, I screenshotted the error and sent it back. It diagnosed the issue, refactored the flow, and deployed the fix - all in one message. You don't need a content team any more. You need content systems. Full prompt + live tool + deep dive article in the comments 👇

†xknight† (@exknighttx) reportedTools needed * Avast vpn set to Honolulu * Old Gmail with unrecognized password * spoofing your device to avoid leaking Create an account as a mistress looking for sissy, after that your account will be on pending , if you are lucky it will be approved after some hours and if you are unlucky they block the account. Once your account is approved , use a picture that display something about **** not the mistress picture you are using , don’t use cover picture cos it will always show errors

Meriam Al Sultan سا(حرة) 🪄 (@AlSultan_Meriam) reported@Scobleizer @mattbramanti So here’s what happened The person got Robert’s login credentials through a data leak which also included his phone number Once the hacker tried to login Google sent Robert 3 numbers in the Gmail app Which the hacker called Robert and instructed him to click the correct number that he sees at the hackers’ end. It sounds very simple and totally avoidable, you would be very surprised how people who work in tech and very knowledgeable can easily fall victims of this simple trick, that’s mainly because of the method those people use by calling urging you to take a step supposedly to protect your account, and in the moment it puts the person in a survival mode and makes them very vulnerable until the moment is gone and they start blaming themselves. Also if Google is set it as recovery and verification for other accounts, then the hacker basically got an open door to hack all of their accounts.

Rohan Paul (@rohanpaul_ai) reportedOpenAI just made GPT-5.5 Instant the default ChatGPT model, with fewer false claims, shorter answers, stronger image and STEM handling, and deeper personalization from memory, files, past chats, and connected Gmail. 52.5% fewer hallucinated claims than GPT-5.3 Instant on high-stakes medicine, law, and finance prompts, plus 37.3% fewer inaccurate claims on difficult conversations users had already flagged for factual errors. The model also uses 30.2% fewer words and 29.2% fewer lines in one comparison, which means OpenAI is tuning for answers that explain enough without burying the user in structure. Also, ChatGPT can now pull useful context from saved memories, past chats, files, and Gmail when that context improves the answer.

Stealthy GCoach (@Stealthy_GCoach) reportedHey @grok I gave the grok app permission to have access to my Gmail and Google drive for Connectors, but it won't work as described. Why not? Is it actually not working or am I crazy

Aditi🌱 (@aditipolkam) reportedgmail works mainly on SMTP (simple mail transfer protocol) for sending an email and smtp was designed as decentralised internet protocol and not a centralised messaging system. recipients of the mail can choose to use any of the available servers (gmail, outlook, yahoo, etc) when you send an email, gmail no longer owns the data/control. a copy of the email is sent to the recipient server (which gmail is not in control of) and hence you cannot delete the email you sent. the ‘undo’ option we usually see just delays the transmission of that email by a few secs, so you are technically not deleting it then but rather just cancelling it from being sent.

LORD BIKRAMJIT (@Bikramjit_wwe) reported@M_Nauta @TeamYouTube I have faced this hacked Gmail thing and lost everything. YT channel with 15K subscribers. Lost many important credentials. Lost hope and the Fight against the criminal hackers. Google didn't helped me. They send dumb A.I to solve the hacking problem. Only I severed link of Bank

Elias (@elias_motionfy) reportedEmail outreach didn't go as planned. Sent personalized video ads to skincare brands with custom Loom video for each one, made from their own product photos. The videos were strong. The problem was deliverability. One domain, one mailbox. Gmail loved me one week, flagged me the next. Spent more time recovering my domain than actually sending. New plan: 3 outreach domains, automated rotation, proper warmup infrastructure. 2 weeks until they're ready. In the meantime I've built a list of 400+ skincare brands with founder contacts that grows daily. Videos are generated. Templates are tested. Everything is loaded. I hate saying this but, waiting. Again.

Arthur LA Smith (@lastahyes) reportedfound this crazy design situation in Alphabet Google Gmail web services. I was looking up in my Gmail for a receipt and was not able to find it. Gmail is designed to automatically look up the keyword as "if the email itself has the words." it created two huge design problems. one: automatic read and system write operations as a services. meaning anything in the body and header is questionable and forced to be watched by security. two: i can never trust my ID because businesses are not restricted embedding my ID in the body or headers and Gmail doesn't tell me or warn me that my contact info was found to be controlled by a company. put it into perspective. I send you an email, with embedded image of a receipt and it contains your contact info. the system can not read what the image is and you can not tell me to stop tracking my ID. the fact is, embedding is a corporate tool used to secure, safe guard, and drive employee and company powers over the customers product or services sale. customers are powerless to ask companies to respect my way of doing business. if someone decides to deceive the reality is, to me, this was premeditated due to norms that everyone and all is grouped in Untrusted and debanked theories of abuse. in a sense, guilty, of a crime, which was thought of, and had not happened yet, suggesting it will. how horrific is that to have to live around crime and be managed so that I couldn't escape it because it was that someone already predicted my ability because of my position as being in the demographics, economy, orientation, process, of state of mind.
