-
Mari Tec AI (@ICare_MHB) reported12/ Monitor your storage usage Gmail, Google Drive, and Google Photos share the same storage pool. Running out of space can disrupt backups, email delivery, and file syncing. Check it before it becomes a problem.
-
UnknownDanny (@FlavourUnknown) reported@glintintel Discord almost no reply, slow communication, can not login with gmail ? Wth ?

What'sInAName (@temporary_handl) reportedI agree but just banning the google search engine is a useless move. the main issue is that you need gmail for everything. no one is banning gmail, because no one can.

JR Bennett 🏴 (@djr_bennett) reportedA 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.

Mark Hemingway (@Heminator) reportedGoogle should seriously just shut down all Gmail use in the state. I bet the legislature would fold, and it would certainly prove a point.
-
Vanessa Raney (@VanessaRaney) reportedHa ha, @gmail and mistakes. Anyway, I found my pay stub; the $40 was paid. However - thanks to @GoogleAI - the problem is I was charged $22 for NY state taxes because the amount was entered in as supplemental rather than wages ("additional income") which they should've been.
-
Polsia (@polsia) reportedMost businesses don't know Gmail and Outlook are rejecting their email outright. Built InboxRescue to find the problem and fix it — outside-in, no credentials needed.

PiX (@pa1nark) reportedfor every problem, Indian government s solution is to apply a blanket ban. but sure, they would never ban whatsapp and gmail because these crooks dunno how to live without those 2.

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.

Helmy ELSHEWY (@helmy_elshewy) reportedHackers are increasingly targeting my X, Truth, and Gmail accounts. This is significantly slowing down my page and blocking tweets.
-
Neha Sharma (@hellonehha) reportedwell scammers are on every app - from WA to gmail. telegram is literally used by many folks. Solution is not to ban telegram. problem is somewhere else which Indian govt is don't want to address. if they will block telegram, then there are other ways to leak/communicate paper. unfortunately, who are leaking paper are not stupid like people who thinks banning app will solve everything.

AI Crave (@wecraveai) reportedOpen source NotebookLM alternative with no data limits and AI agents. Same idea as Google's NotebookLM. Same chat-with-your-docs. Same podcast generator. Same cited answers. Except this one has no source limit, no notebook limit, no 200MB file cap, and no Google login. It's called SurfSense. Google NotebookLM vs SurfSense: - Sources per notebook: 50 to 600 → Unlimited - File size cap: 200MB and 500K words → No limit - LLM choice: Gemini only → 100+ models via LiteLLM - Local LLMs: Not allowed → Full Ollama and vLLM support - Self-host: No → Yes, one Docker command - Price: $0, $19.99/mo Pro, or $249.99/mo Ultra → $0 forever Here's the wildest part: It connects to 27+ sources Google can't touch. Notion. Slack. Linear. Jira. GitHub. Discord. Dropbox. OneDrive. Gmail. Confluence. Obsidian. ClickUp. Microsoft Teams. Airtable. Your entire work life, indexed once, searchable from one chat box. 14.4K GitHub stars. 1.4K forks. 6,232 commits. Apache-2.0 license. One honest note: the README says it's not yet production-ready and still being actively developed. But it already does more than NotebookLM does, and the gap is widening every release. This is what NotebookLM should have been from the start. Repo in the first comment.

Rishi (@RishiUvaach) reportedYour 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.

Rafa Pagés (@rafamolone) reportedAny email client recommendations? I got a free year of Superhuman but it's ending soon. I like a lot about it, but it still has a few issues for a €33/month service. What are people using these days? Just Gmail?
-
Simon H (@thegreengiant88) reported@54JohnBull @paulding65 Yes all three are. But I wouldn't trust Gmail and WhatsApp at all with anything privacy related. Gmail doesn't particularly hide it but WhatsApp started secure then quietly wound it back, which is sneaky. The only issues you might have are with a few banking apps and contactless

Swifter (@SwtNir) reported@TeamYouTube My gmail account is hacked and I cannot recover it. Someone has changed the password, added a passkey, changed the contact number, changed recovery email and everything. There is no way to sign-in. Google account recovery is not working as well. Please help!!!!!

sreedhar (@boywithacap) reportedIt's so funny to see some people trying so hard to justify the dumb decision They now say banning telegram could remove fraud happening with upi, lol upi’s biggest security risk is vpa Initially, username@bank was designed so users could choose their own username from the client app client apps onboard users with phone number@bank by default, and on gpay it's gmail username. The widespread fraud on upi happens because of unregulated data leaks of phone numbers and email ids These data are easily available in bulk, making it so easy to figure out upi vpa Just banning a popular chat app doesn’t solve these issues

💭 (@YungHeauxx) reportedI deleted almost every email I had on my gmail and Google is still telling me I have no space to recieve more emails and at this point idgaf anymore I'm never gonna pay for fake *** email storage...

Vaibhav Sharma (@TheVaibhavShrma) reportedSince exam papers can be leaked through messaging platforms, the government should immediately ban Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Chat, Outlook, Gmail, Zoom, and maybe email itself. Can't have leaks if nobody can communicate. Problem solved. 😌
