    @ritvij14_ The echo is probably Meet output getting routed back as mic input on the VPS. The uncomfortable part starts at the Gmail login. An autonomous process now has a verified seat in a live human room. Who can mute it, let it speak, or record?

    A man was about to delete his 15-year-old Gmail account. Reason? 400 spam emails every day. • Fake receipts • Phishing scams • Extortion emails • Endless junk He moved his cursor to Delete Account. Then a coworker stopped him. "Don't delete your Gmail. Fix what attackers are exploiting." She showed him 22 overlooked Gmail settings that dramatically reduced spam. Most people never touch them. Here's the playbook. 🧵

    @ProtonSupport I appreciate you asking. My issue and a lot of others, is less one app and more the overall ecosystem. Proton has the privacy angle, which is why we care. But if the pitch here is “we can beat Google,” the suite needs to feel a lot more reliable across desktop, web, and mobile. Mail and Pass are the strongest pieces y'all have atm. The rest still feels heavily uneven. And you just added in Gmail integration, but that sends a mixed message around privacy and your mission. You can’t position yourself as the "Google replacement", while still pushing users to now be able to use Gmail within your app. Privacy gets people in the door. But your product reliability is what keeps them there.

    @ybouane Is your Attachment Extractor for Gmail still being maintained? It's not working for me; asks me to log into my Gmail & then it just loads, never resolves. This is on Chrome. Tried it on Edge; same issue. I just paid for it.

    Claude Code artifacts can now call your connectors: Gmail, Calendar, Slack, Notion. I built one to see exactly how the permissions work. Three things to know before you approve one. 1. It runs as you, not the author. Every call uses the credentials of whoever opens the page. The same artifact shows each viewer their own data, and none of it goes back to the author. 2. The page is limited to what it declared. It can only call the exact tools it listed when it was published. Anything else is refused, and it never sees your login. 3. Consent is per connector, not per action. I gave my test page a tool that writes drafts to Gmail. The approval box said "Gmail." Reading your mail and writing to it share the same checkbox, so "approve Gmail" means "approve whatever this page was built to do." 4. Artifacts with connectors can't be shared publically. Still, they can be shared with everyone in the organization. Before you approve one, the box names a connector, not the actions behind it. The trust is in who built the page, not the word on the button.

    @Adam_Karpiak Consider screening software, its been used for years to sift email for spam in big server systems (Yahoo & Gmail). It works but it’s spotty, so you have a personal incentive to review it every so often. Employers have NO such incentive to see who they may have missed.

    Claude for Chrome v1.0.80 still lets other extensions silently read Gmail, Docs, Calendar after 8 patch releases. An agent touched your account and left no trace you can query. Fix: every action signed, every session an asciinema you can replay and kill. No replay, no governance.

    -OAuth 2.0 alone = "here's permission to access my photos/calendar/data" -OpenID Connect (built on OAuth 2.0) = "here's proof of WHO I am" + sends back user info as a JWT for "Sign in with Gmail": Google uses BOTH to authenticate you AND authorize access to your info the result? you get an ID token (proves it's you) + access token (permission to access your data)

    When we started NeuralAgent back in April 2025 it was one of the first agents in the world that uses a user's personal computer, not a computer on the cloud, thats what made it to spread to 180 countries and tens of thousands of users in a short amount of time. Today, I am excited to announce that we are experimenting with something new, something called NeuralOS, it's the next evolution of the Neural experience. With NeuralOS, intelligence stops being an app you open and close and it becomes the OS itself, it becomes the computer itself, it's always on and always ready. Imagine for example you are now on the gmail interface, and you say 'Hey Neural, send a reply to John here', and it just understands, it just knows and in milliseconds types the reply, asks for your approval and then sends it. Or if you are on an interface and there was an error and you say "Hey Neural, fix this" and it just knows! It just works across any app, any screen, any interface, you call it via a keyboard shortcut or voice and ask it to do something, and it does it in milliseconds. Now that we have our fast model, I feel now is the time for this experiment. Stay tuned for NeuralOS! It will be an OS layer that's always on that can run on Windows and macOS and soon Linux as well! As always, we would love to hear your feedback!

    8. Gmail, Drive, and Photos share the same storage. That’s why deleting emails often makes no difference. If you still see "98% used" after cleaning out Gmail, the problem lies in Drive or Photos.

    1. See what's filling your account "Open the Google One app or storage page and check the breakdown across Drive, Gmail, and Google Photos to see which one is the real problem."

    1. Keyboard shortcuts the feature Gmail buries on purpose. This is the #1 reason people pay for Superhuman: speed. No mouse. Just keys. Gmail has the same thing. It's just turned off by default. Settings (gear icon) → See All Settings → General → Keyboard Shortcuts → ON. Save. Now: 1.C = compose 2.E = archive 3.R = reply 4.A = reply all 5.J/K = navigate up/down through emails 6.S = star 7.# = delete 8./ = search 9.G then I = go to inbox These are the same shortcuts Superhuman teaches you in onboarding. Gmail has had them for over a decade. They're just hidden behind one toggle that Google never promotes. 20 minutes of muscle memory. The mouse becomes optional.

    Most drone pilots are great at flying. They're terrible at filling the pipeline. SkyReach fixes that. It finds 25 local businesses a day, researches the site, drafts a personalized Gmail, and tracks every follow-up so no warm lead dies in the inbox.

    A YouTube channel with 14 videos just pulled 104,000 views on one upload using a Native American AI character. Frank Redhawk is 14 videos deep. 3,800 subscribers. 141,335 total views. Started uploading on a dormant January 2021 Gmail with 5 years of trust score baked in before the first video. The top video pulled 104,000 views in 30 days. "The Native Way to Cool Any Room for Pennies — No AC, No Electricity, No Fan." 18 minute video. 10.3x the channel average. The second pulled 35,000 views. "The Native Way to Purify Any Water in Minutes." 19 minute video. 3.5x outlier. The whole channel runs on one authority frame. "The Native Way." Every title. Every video. The AI character wears the cultural authority. The audience trusts the wisdom before Frank says a word. Monetization is already stacked. sells an ebook. Every viewer worried about the grid going down is a $47 buyer. Why this play works. Cultural authority frames are the highest converting hook on YouTube in 2026. Amish. Native American. Nordic. Ancient Roman. Every one of them implies wisdom the audience has never heard before. The costume does half the trust work. Meanwhile the content underneath is public. Traditional cooling techniques exist in old ethnobotany textbooks. Charcoal water purification is on Wikipedia. Free public domain knowledge wrapped in an authority frame. The playbook. Step 1. Pick a cultural authority frame nobody in your niche is running. Native American. Amish. Aboriginal. Bedouin. Cossack. Any culture with survival wisdom the audience recognizes as trustworthy. Step 2. Build an AI character that carries the cultural signal. Native American elder. Amish craftsman. Aboriginal grandmother. The character does not need to speak the language. It needs to look the part. Step 3. Same title formula every video. "The Native Way to X." "The Amish Secret to Y." "The Japanese Method for Z." Step 4. Attach a $47 ebook from video 3. Package the wisdom the character represents. Step 5. Same 18 to 20 minute video length. Older Tier 1 audience watches start to finish. Step 6. Ship 3 videos a week. Ride the first 5x outlier the moment it hits. The window is closing on Amish. Native American is wide open. Aboriginal is wide open. Nordic is barely started. Pick a cultural frame. Build the character. Ship 15 videos in 30 days.

    Installing every Claude plugin can make Claude Code worse. Tech With Tim opens with the failure mode, then spends 22 minutes cutting the stack down to tools with a specific job: > 00:00 once Claude sees around 50 tools, it starts picking the wrong ones > 03:06 Pyright checks generated Python against real type errors > 05:06 Anthropic's GitHub plugin fails; the MCP workaround is connected by 07:54 > 16:21 Context7 pulls current framework documentation > 17:34 Composio finds the required tool on demand instead of loading the full catalog into context > 19:59 Figma gives Claude the source design before it writes the page The article below adds Playwright for browser checks, Postgres or Supabase for data, Slack for team updates, and Gmail, Linear, or Notion for the work around the code. One workflow starts with a failed CI check on a pull request. Claude reads the failure, queries the database to reproduce the bug, writes the fix, and posts the result in Slack. The author keeps the setup to four to six MCP servers, with read-only database access and least-privilege tokens. Keep the stack small enough that Claude can still choose the right tool.

    VCs are big-braining what "ai multiplayer" means. Multiplayer is not a new UX, it's making old UX work seamlessly with AI agents. Your coworkers are already using notion, slack, google docs, gmail - you're already doing multiplayer. The problem with agents is: a) how can you securely (and easily) give them access to the same tools. b) how to give them shared context while they use these various tools.

    9. Auto-Advance the setting that makes Gmail feel 2x faster. When you archive an email, Gmail sends you back to the inbox. Then you click the next email. Archive. Back to inbox. Click. Archive. Inbox. This friction is the #1 reason people think Gmail is slow compared to Superhuman. Settings → See All Settings → Advanced → Auto-Advance → Enable. Now when you archive one email, the next email opens instantly. You flow through your inbox sequentially. No return trips. This one setting buried in the "Advanced" tab nobody opens eliminates the single biggest speed difference between Gmail and every paid email client.
