-
Golden_Iris⚡️ (@golden_iris7) reportedBuilding on @instagram DMs means building a whole "Please tap ••• -> Open in external browser" screen because IG's browser has no cookies. @Meta , you solved this securely years ago - ASWebAuthenticationSession. It's private AND has Gmail session. Just use it for login links.

kanu1.base.eth (@kanu__mondol) reportedHello @gmail,@Google My account was recently disabled due to a policy issue. I have already submitted an appeal and sincerely apologized for my mistake. This account is very important to me. I kindly request a review or any guidance. Thank you.

theogkc at bluesky (@thekc23) reported@dondisappoints I use Mac mail. That search engine is pretty good. Also- gmail has that pesky archive issue which is glitchy.

Parole d'honneur (@TroubledNotes) reported@gmail The way gmail eases time wasting. I can be connected to my gmail account from any browsers but cannot access it from Outlook at the same time from the same laptop because the OLK browser-based authentication dialog is “unsecure”. No support can be reached to address the issue

Amit Rawat (@theamitrawat96) reported@gmail @Google @gmail I need urgent help. I’m unable to access my Gmail account due to the error: “We couldn’t verify your phone number. There is something unusual about your activity. For your security, Google wants to make sure it’s really you

ChuLee (@Chulee120) reported@iCrazyTeddy I tried on PC and ran into the Gmail issue, mobile browser worked perfectly though. Did you have to refresh the page a few times to get the wallet to show?

Fernando Cao (@thefernandocz) reportedIt takes most teams 2+ weeks to send the first cold email from a new domain. Ours go out from day 1. Warmup is the tax nobody prices in as a new domain has zero reputation, so Gmail treats it like a stranger. This is usually a pain because you sit there for 2 weeks sending fake warmup emails back and forth just to look trustworthy before you can launch the campaign. It gets worse the more inboxes you need. You either wait 2 weeks, or rush fresh domains and eat the spam folder. We stopped warming from scratch a long time ago. This is our setup: - buy every inbox pre-warmed. It shows up with months of real sending history and DNS already handled - cap it at 15 to 20 sends per inbox per day, forever. Low volume per sender, spread wide - leave warmup running in the background even while campaigns send - watch health per domain and pull anything that slips before it drags the rest down A campaign approved on Monday is sending Monday. @smartlead_ai made this native recently btw. Pre-warmed mailboxes through SmartSenders, delivered in about 30 minutes, 3 mailboxes per domain, sending the same day. Send from day 1 with Smartlead’s pre-warmed mailboxes

muhammadriyaz (@riyaz0786ahmad) reported@googleaccount @Bsebpatna123 a problem in two step verification in my Gmail. Google is not able to verify me. I have important documents in my Gmail, my location is the same, the number is available, then why is the IP address not matching? Please solve two. step verification

muhammadriyaz (@riyaz0786ahmad) reported@TeamYouTube "Sir, I am facing a 'Same Email OTP' loop issue on my Google account [Apna Gmail ID Yahan Likhein]. I don't have access to this email as it is logged out, but Google is sending the verification code to the same email. Please help me recover my account.

Eva Fain BSN MPH RN-CDE/CHES research focus (@espacetimeNOT) reported@ethanjweiss SIR: I have an ipad mini. there was a conflict & finally Apple updated. It got better. I resent Gmail trying to fix my calendar functions & re-send emails because "it" decides when I need to follow up. Add into that prob? EPIC sends pop health emails...

Max Shapiro (@LegislativeAI) reportedHe’s also wrong in the technical sense as well. Google data centers run on TPUs which are the same things running Gmail and AI. Stop listening to people who are technically illiterate if you want to actually solve problems.

Jo Bhakdi (@JOBhakdi) reportedMy average time to log into facebook or Instagram on my browser is about 2 weeks but only if I have a team of 2 tech people helping me. Once I am logged in, it keeps for a few weeks, but then I have to do it again. For over a month now, we are trying to post content on my Instagram account parallel to X and Youtube. It's important for our strategy, so we are willing heavily invest into the process. However... I don't think it should require a whole tech team multiple weeks to log into my social media accounts. For comparison: X takes about one second, same for gmail and Google services. The team was able to set up and activate a new TikTok account in about 3 minutes. 2 weeks per login is BAD. @Meta @instagram

Binu Alex (@badjourno) reportedI've used Gmail since it launched, back in 2004 or so. And every single day, without fail, it nags me to buy more storage. So instead, I bought my own server and moved all my documents there. That's the files and photos sorted. Then there's the email itself. I run a strict inbox-zero policy. Yes, I do keep folders — but only for the emails that actually matter. Everything else gets deleted, not hoarded. Even the trash too. The truth is simple: if you actually manage your inbox instead of letting it pile up, you will never need to pay Google a rupee for extra space.

Gallomimia (@gallomimia) reported@ClintFiore That sounds great except i have gmail accounts with 120k unread mails, most of which are newsletters I intentionally subscribed to! What i need to do is buckle down and filter them out. Maybe you should build the email platform?

Mark Bond (@MarkDABond) reportedWhat a day New phone breaks down and I have to start from scratch - old phone still functioning thank goodness. New bank account I couldn't get cash cos I wasnt good enough for counter service. I couldn't get into my Gmail for some unknown error. Then did after ANZ refusal.

Lucas, 15 y/o founder and builder (@lucastohdev) reportedTime to talk about Codex Cloud vs ChatGPT work. Codex Cloud was introduced quite awhile ago, and it was genuinely innovative and actually useful back then around March. I used it to run random projects and cloud work when I was not at home and just had my phone on me, the set up was honestly rather confusing and hard to easily do, setting up github envs, linking it to the Codex Cloud envs, setting up permissions etc. But it was decently useful to run little bug fixes when I did not have access to a machine at that time. Even back then it was kind of bad to use 1. There was no model selector area, all Cloud envs and running these kind of dev work typically is run on the model and thinking level of choice of the user, even till today there isn't an option to chose what model is running your task, it could be GPT-5.3-Codex-Spark-Low for all I know or GPT-5.6-Sol-Ultra (it is definitely neither of the two, I'm just showing my point here) 2. The only customization we have was how many batches of the same prompt and thing we want to run, from 1-4. And after they all finished I can choose which one I want to merge or continue with. I don't really get the point of this feature at this point, back then when it was more of a gamble what output you would get form the model it was somewhat reasonable, but now it is just a useless feature that I have never ever used more than just to see what it does. 3. The model just runs on something, no idea what it even runs on, its just a machine somewhere, no specs exposed, just some random env that was the only area we could run it on. So we have no idea what the model can do, and from my brief use months ago it was rather restrictive and did not give the model much things it could do to test and build things around. Now, ChatGPT Work, a Cloud or Local place for you to run your tasks. This is a much better place to do cloud things for developers. Because 1. Runs on an actual VM with 9 CPU, 20GB of RAM, 50GB of storage and runs on an actual Linux machine (if I remember correctly) so this allows the model to ACTUALLY DO THINGS, I have seen people literally run a Linux or Windows distro off it, and I managed to get a Minecraft server to run of it as well 2. Model selections, ChatGPT Work allows you to choose the models you have access to in Codex, from Terra to Sol and Luna and everything else, as well as thinking levels and speed modes. This allows users to actually chose what model they want to run for their specific task. 3. ChatGPT Work has the connectors that your normal ChatGPT has, so it instantly has access to your Gmail, Drive, Slack, Notion etc. Oh yea, and it has a browser within it's VM so it can actually do things. From all of this, I think that it is time OpenAI kills Codex Cloud, and replaces it fully with ChatGPT Work Cloud intergraded within Codex. It would allow for all users to actually run things and dev things better and easily. It gives the user more customizability and control and ability to do more of what they need and want to do. I think OpenAI knows this too, especially that their Codex Cloud feature is actually really bad. It used to be so easy to go from the Codex app to Codex Cloud, and from the Codex website to the Cloud, but now it is much harder (besides them adding the cloud projects showing up in the Codex app again). They should make the Codex app, sorry ChatGPT app have much tighter integration into ChatGPT Work Cloud from Codex and honestly just remove Codex Cloud, port everything over the ChatGPT Work Cloud and call it a day. Or they can bring all the great features of ChatGPT Work Cloud into Codex Cloud and make it get all the benefits and upsides of ChatGPT Work Cloud.

Batuhan Saygılı (@batuhansygili) reported@TeamYouTube Someone stole my Gmail/youtube account and added themselves from family options as a parent. When I try to log in with my rescue email and number, I encounter a parental lock. I am 26 years old. Can you help me overcome this problem?

geoff (@BrickVoid) reported@ericamorecambe @gmail It's an automatically generated help service that scans for keywords. You received this message because they want to reach as many people that need their help as possible. You can ignore it if you want. It only responds to details pertaining to the issue.

0employees (@0employees) reportedthe fastest automation win isn't a fancy tool. it's finding the one task quietly eating your week. here's the ritual: every sunday, look back and ask which boring thing stole the most hours. then hand that one thing to a free tool. not fifty tools. one. say the answer is email triage, the daily slog of deciding what to even open. the free tool for it is purebox. it plugs into your gmail with official google login and reads which senders you actually open versus let pile up. the free scan (up to 1,000 emails, no card) shows you your real attention, archive, and trash split, plus how many hours you'd claw back. so even before paying a cent, you know exactly which senders to cut. running the cleanup on autopilot for new mail is about $5 a month, and when it acts, nothing moves until you approve and every change is reversible. every morning i test one automation and break down the one worth keeping. this is today's. what's the one task eating your week right now?

Imhereforjesus (@Imhereforjesus) reportedBeware of installing free version of @grok on your phone. You could inadvertently sign up for $299.99 month Grok Heavy without realizing it and @xai wont do jack for you. I thought I was merely signing into my free Grok account by going through Gmail login. Horrible support.

G.J.Quartermaine 🏴 (@gjquartermaine) reported@CleansedTweets They froze you because you opened another account? I have multiple Gmail accounts for different activities...never an issue. Use Google Workspace. As for Proton. I have an email account, but it's clunky compared to Gmail. Not really suitable for business. I do use their VPN though.

Naren (@ur_0000007) reported@gmail First, fix your ******* web app. Deleted emails keep coming back like this **** is haunted. I delete unread emails, come back later, and they're still sitting there marked as unread. I can't ******* get rid of them unless I delete them from the Bin too. Fix this broken bullshit

Jason Levin (@iamjasonlevin) reportedI just automated our product changelog from my iphone: Step 1. Tell @chorus_agent to scan through all completed @Linear issues from month Step 2. Chorus sends a draft to @beehiiv’s MCP based on a template I have Step 3. Chorus uses Gmail to alert my team to put finishing touches on it and edit it We never sent a changelog (Been too busy shipping) Wanted to automate this forever. Insane.

Chris Millet (@Cmillet77) reportedTried out the new chatgpt voice, pretty impressed. It started when I was reviewing some upcoming expenses with my partner on my investment condo. I decided to just open up it up talk to it like you would a human assistant. Told it I wanted an expense tracker we could update through the year and could it just go into my gmail and look up all our conversations for this year and build it. It did that no problem, and also asked it to login to Wells Fargo and grab all the transactions and mate it up to all our expense categories, make a pivot breakdown by category, etc. Np, and it proactively found a few that it couldn't determine on its own for human review and I told it to refer to CPA conversations and my tax docs from last year to figure it out. All this just by having some easy convo over my airpods like you would delegate to somebody in your office. Total time was 15 mins while I was just working on chores around the house - I would have probably spent an hour or two doing this myself in front of the computer. Then just told it to draft an email and attach it so I could review before sending.
