  @liroxtwt @BAIZAAR_ @ProtonMail The privacy issue is not so much with people using gmail, it's moreso that the company behind it's entire business model is collecting and selling user data

  @CenturyLink The broken email? Their fault. The billing address on my account was [redacted]@ gmaiil .com — two i’s in “gmail.” A nonexistent address. I haven’t received a single billing email from @CenturyLink since 2021.

  @Cloudflare @CloudflareHelp @CloudflareDev I'm migrating a client to Cloudflare, but when he tried creating an account w/ his Gmail it gave an error & said to contact support. Which he can't because it requires an account... He sent an email 2 days ago w/ no response. What to do?

  This is how I solve this problem in cause you are having similar issues. After I received the Gmail that my Adsense account was disapproved, I waited for few minutes that login to that Adsense account and close it down totally and waited to get a confirmation from google 🧵

  HAVE YOU NOTICED ANY CHANGES WITH NEW GMAIL ACCOUNTS YOU’VE CREATED RECENTLY? Google is quietly testing a smaller storage limit for new Gmail accounts by trialing a 5GB storage cap for new sign-ups, down from the usual 15GB. To unlock the full 15GB, new users are required to add a phone number to their account. This change is only affecting new accounts in select regions (mostly reported in parts of Africa so far). Existing Gmail accounts remain unaffected and will continue to have the standard 15 GB storage limit. Why is Google doing this? There are two main reasons behind this move: 1. Security & Account Recovery Google wants more users to add phone numbers for better account protection and easier recovery. This has been a long-standing push, and tying storage to phone verification is a clever way to incentivize it. 2. Reducing Storage Abuse Many people create multiple Gmail accounts primarily to get more free cloud storage. By lowering the default storage for unverified accounts, Google is making it less attractive to create throwaway accounts just for storage. This move reflects a broader trend across big tech, free tiers are gradually getting tighter. Google (like many other platforms) is finding ways to: 1. Collect more user data (phone numbers) 2. Reduce abuse of free services Push users toward paid storage (Google One) over time While existing users are safe for now, this test suggests that Google may continue exploring ways to make the free experience slightly less generous for new users. So, for most of you who already have a Gmail account, you’re fine. Your 15GB isn’t going anywhere. If you’re creating new accounts, you may only get 5GB unless you verify with a phone number. This is currently a test, but if successful, it could roll out more widely. Big tech companies are slowly reshaping what “free” actually means. Storage, reach, and features that were once freely available are increasingly being used as leverage to collect more data or drive users toward paid plans.

  An OTP even from Gmail automatically pops up on the keyboard. You can even set it so it automatically deletes an SMS upon use of the OTP Idk what’s happening with your phone. Maybe it’s a problem with your settings or sumn.

  Before you rewrite another word of your cold email — do this one test. 📬 Send yourself an email. Open it on Gmail. Check where it lands. If it's in spam, nothing else matters. Not your subject line. Not your opener. Not your CTA. Nobody is reading it. I spent 3 months rewriting copy while every email was going to spam the entire time. The problem was never the writing. ManyReach fixes it at the root — built-in warmup and deliverability, no extra tools, no manual setup. Do the test. Then fix the real problem.

  Today @gmail managed to do something that @Meta struggle with. Stopping concurrent sessions from overseas where an account is compromised. Google stopped the login so I could reset the password. Meta let them right in and have no customer service for compromised accounts.

  @dremtee @bhatnaturally @narayananh But Gmail is a US owned entity. Why cant Indian government agencies use an indian email server ? I have seen this in the email exchange between IAS officers ( which one IAS officer shared on FB )
