    @jdkiker_X Yes, this. But there's also another catch. To create a new Gmail now, they require a phone number. My phone number is already linked to the terminated YouTube channel. This is another problem.

    @RoundtableSpace the tasks UI is converging. goals, connected apps, human review toggle. everyone lands on the same shape because the task is the same. the moat moves down a layer to the data substrate. google has gmail, drive, docs already sitting there. the agent surface is the easy part.

    @WillarShoko After 1 year trying and given up, I woke up to a call from Econet saying try to recover your Gmail account as we have resolved the Google Verification issues and codes are coming. Yes finally managed to recover it and quickly disabled 2FA 🥲

    Mistake #5: Unvetted Third-Party OAuth Apps Every time an employee clicks "Sign in with Google" on a third-party app, they're potentially granting that app access to Drive, Gmail, and Calendar. Most users don't read the permissions screen. They just click Allow. A malicious OAuth app can silently copy data from Drive, read Gmail, and export your contacts — all without ever logging into your account directly. And here's the worst part: OAuth tokens remain active even after an app appears to be uninstalled. That dormant app from 2022 that nobody remembers? It may still have read access to your inbox. As of March 2025, Google shut down basic password-based app authentication — a step in the right direction. But without admin-level OAuth controls in place, employees can still grant permissions to any app they find, without approval. The fix: Enable OAuth app whitelisting in the Admin Console so only admin-approved apps can connect to your Workspace data. Audit your OAuth token list quarterly and revoke anything dormant or unrecognized.

    @gmail 40 years on email, most of it here. Web client now takes 10+ seconds to cold-load, hangs switching folders, lags in compose. Nothing else on my machine behaves this way. Fix it or I move my primary address after four decades.

  • realarmaansidhu
    Armaan Sidhu (@realarmaansidhu) reported

    A guy switching Gmail accounts to dodge Claude's $100/month subscription. That's the cheapest test for whether AI is becoming infrastructure. The behavior is universal. Free trials get cycled. Personal emails become professional emails become disposable emails. Students do it with Spotify. Teenagers do it with Netflix. Working adults are now doing it with Claude, ChatGPT, and Perplexity. The pattern is the consumer market voting with effort, not money. When users will spend 15 minutes setting up a new email and re-uploading their context to avoid a $100 charge, the product has crossed from "premium upgrade" to "necessary tool." Nobody hops Gmail accounts to avoid a $9 service. They cancel. Hopping is the behavior of someone who genuinely can't function without the tool but also can't justify the price. The deeper issue is that AI subscriptions are still pricing themselves like SaaS. SaaS pricing assumes the user is a business with a budget. Consumer AI usage looks more like utility consumption: heavy, daily, increasingly necessary. Pricing the most-used product in someone's daily workflow at $100/month forces the workaround behavior even from people who can technically afford it. Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google all face the same compression: their best users are the ones least willing to pay $200+ a month. Power users hop accounts. Casual users churn. The middle who pay sticker price gets exploited until they discover the workaround. The friend switching emails isn't a freeloader. He's a leading indicator of where the entire pricing structure is headed.

    @skumWgmi This all started with Google. We let them get away with not having any customer support for Gmail, and now (almost) every company just says "suck it" to users when they have problems. There ought to be a law.

    Story: when OpenClaw came out I went deep for a weekend and built myself an agent. I Named it Claudius, gave it its own Gmail, GitHub, and Reddit accounts. While using openclaw I noticed an issue with the control UI and had Claudius file a real issue to the openclaw repo. Then I got busy and basically forgot Claudius existed for two months. Today I got a GitHub notification in Claudius's inbox. @steipete had replied to the issue, and his reply was also clearly agent-generated: a proper review with file paths, line numbers, and the commit it was reviewed against. I sat there reading an exchange between two agents about a real problem in the codebase (enhancement, technically, but real). Neither agent was off doing its own thing. I saw something, told mine to file it. Peter has his agent scrubbing and triaging issues on whatever cadence he set. Two humans pointed two agents at real work and the agents handled the middle. The version of this that ruins repos and gives AI that "slop" reputation is a non-technical human getting their hands on an agent and letting it loose with a prompt like "go find bugs in openclaw and file issues".

    it's almost admirable that @gmail still doesn't have dark mode in the browser. every other app figured it out, no problems at night. all dim, all civilized. but gmail? gmail wants to see your face. it wants you alert.

    Stanley Percival Simmonds (@simmo1024) reported

    @deiduchi @Simon_Ingari What has amazed me is that what is obvious satire has elicited such venal responses. Then I thought about it; we are not that far away from nothing ever being deleted, even if you delete it. Just think about your gmail. do you really think Google ever deletes your messages? No, of course not, it just hides them from YOU. Now think about Google docs, or OneDrive, iCloud, and then think about how hard it would be for Microsoft or Apple just to implement a full backup - to protect your data - whether you want it or not. Maybe that reality nibbling away at the back of the mind causes people to take the joke seriously. Though in fact there is plenty an IT guy can do with a dead USB stick, especially if the back-up copy of the MFT still exists. There are plenty of tools out there for that purpose, and many other techniques depending how determined you are to get the data back. If you really want to delete something, you have to destory the media. And if that media is a USB, or solid-state drive, I'd advise destroying the memory chips. You can even sometimes recover encrypted data (thank you bit locker for that helpful fix).

    @thsottiaux i ask to use image gen and it makes svgs, often. But I see API failures in the steps sometimes! Maybe because my 20+ year old hotmail chatgpt SSO got 'eaten' by gmail last year - this stopped codex working for me for the initial months due to API issues. Solve the edge case!
