  @JohnBeaudoinSr Wow. Gmail shares attachments with AI, and yesterday, GoDaddy’s Outlook was down for 8 hours. I was unable to log in on my laptop, and the mobile app showed no new emails all day. Looks to me like they don’t want us emailing one another, in preparation for the next thing.

  @AMoser_E @TutaPrivacy @ProtonMail If you make a Proton account, and sink Gmail to it. Pick at it. Don't make it a chore. A couple of accounts at a time, or one, or binge it. Whatever. It is possible to degoogle yourself. I degoogled and deMicrosofted myself. I am fully on Linux (Mint), and on Calyx OS for phone. Slow and steady wins the race friend. A sandwich isn't consumed in one bite, but many.

  Shout out to @MailspringApp I installed it last year for a desktop app that had Gmail keyboard shortcuts. I just noticed it has an MCP server now. I don't have to do a song an dance to give my Hermes agent access to various email accounts. I can reference an account and subject when prompting my agent and it can read the email, screenshots, attachments, etc. It can even draft reply emails for me that I can go back an edit and send when I'm ready. Thank you!

  @Spectra010s Right, full scan is the core problem. The Gmail example is probably just illustrative, same issue with any domain since it's the leading wildcard killing the index, not which domain gets searched.

  @stelzner_n1150 This has to be the stupidest comment ever sorry. 100% of cell phones, smart phones, cable boxes, electric meters, computer usage and email GOES THROUGH DATA centers and always has! Here are the facts: That claim is backwards. The internet and smartphones have always run on data centers (or the same thing under older names: server rooms, colo, hosting farms). What changed is the size, location, and branding — not whether the machines exist. The internet never ran without servers Commercial internet use took off in the early 1990s. From day one it needed: ISP modem banks and backbone routers Web/email/DNS servers Co-location and hosting facilities Those are data centers. Exodus, AboveNet, Equinix, and telco “carrier hotels” were already packing raised-floor rooms with racks in the mid-to-late 1990s. Google’s first big custom plants and Amazon’s early AWS rooms were 2000s expansions of that model, not a new species of building. You could run a static homepage off a PC in a closet. You could not run search, streaming, maps, payments, or “the internet” as people actually used it. Smartphones made the dependence worse, not optional The iPhone shipped in 2007. A phone is a thin client. Almost everything people treat as “the phone” lives off-device: iCloud / Google account sync Maps and traffic App Store / Play Store Gmail, Photos, Drive Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Spotify Siri / Assistant Banking and payments That traffic hits someone’s data center. If those rooms went dark, the glass slab in your pocket would still make calls on a good day and not much else. Twenty years of smartphones is twenty years of more backend compute, not twenty years without it.

  @_avichawla Cutting the redundant layer out of a pipeline is the same instinct I applied to my own inbox. I set up Opencode with a Gmail MCP server to triage which emails actually deserve a reply and read the warmth behind them, authenticated through the gmail-mcp auth step.

  ChatGPT finally supports multiple Gmail accounts. No more logging out. No more switching tabs. No more half-pictures of your schedule. You can now connect multiple Google accounts side-by-side to read emails, calendars, and contacts all at once. Here is how to set it up in under a minute: 1. Open ChatGPT and go to plugins/settings. 2. Tap the gear icon on Gmail. 3. Select "Connect another account" and sign in. Stop checking your inbox manually. Let AI do the triage.

  Most of the SaaS software we use have a major flaw in them and most people aren't aware of it. I'm not going to breadcrumb you to read the full writeup. The main flaw is that there's no pause button. We can't pause our account. That's it? You might think. But think about all the SaaS software you use on a daily basis, which is almost 100% of all software. Take an example of Gmail workspace. If you've been using it (which is a SaaS), the moment you stop paying, your account access is gone. And if you don't pay the subscription (aka ransom), you lose your data and work. All modern SaaS platforms are aimed at keeping revenue alive. And I understand that economic need. But that doesn't mean I agree with this practice. That is the reason, for all my clients at Sisyphus Consulting, one of the most important filters used in services and advisory is: can we press breaks without losing data? That is one of the problems I wanted to address. So, we launched Self-hosted Software Management service almost a year back. It is our end-to-end service helping businesses setup, scale and maintain their own open source applications and servers. The ability to pause the whole setup, stopping the monthly billing and still retaining ownership of the accumulated data, is one of the things that I'm proud of offering. The interesting matter is that, most of us do not think about this. Because none of the major SaaS providers offer this pause button. What we don't see, we don't think about. Out of sight, out of mind. For example, have you thought about having your free Gmail account emails having physically backed up on your own device or server? I too, hadn't thought about it few years ago. We build our entire work and life around a Gmail account and we don't even think about owning our emails. Almost a year back, finally I switched to Thunderbird, backed up all of 10k+ emails of past decade in a readable, open format. Now I have no worries about Gmail going down tomorrow. It is crazy how many things the modern SaaS business model has taken away from us: ownership, longevity, interoperability and joy of using the same tools for years.

  Unsubscribe is them walking out. Spam is them telling the building you're a problem. Unsub hurts a dashboard. Spam hurts the next 10,000 people. Keep blasting people who already wanted out and Gmail starts taking their side. One-click leave. Stop mailing people who never wanted this cadence. I'd rather they walk out than burn the building.

  @egavrilenko11 @bot 2/3 GitHub didn't work either. I even tried creating a Cursor account, and it was the same. It only worked when I used the Gmail login option. I used another personal account and then linked it to my Supergrok account. I'm logged in that way, but when I connected the X plugin...

  Martin Szerment | Practical AI (@MartinSzerment) reported 24 minutes ago

  Claude can now run your Mac in the background while you do something else, and that quietly ends the debate about whether AI agents need your full attention. Everyone assumed autonomous computer control meant giving up your screen, watching a cursor move while you wait. That assumption is wrong now, at least on macOS 15. Sonnet 4.6 scores 72.5% on OSWorld, up from under 15% when computer use first shipped in late 2024. Two years took the model from novelty to something close to reliable. Yes, it's Pro and Max only, macOS only, still marked research preview. None of that changes the direction, it only changes the rollout schedule. This isn't a new feature, it's a shift in where automation lives. For a decade we treated automation as an API problem. Now the interface itself is the integration layer. Give it three years and clicking through a UI will be the fallback path, not the exception, for every agent that lacks a direct connector. Connectors like Slack and Gmail stop being the main event and become a shortcut Claude reaches for first, before it falls back to acting like you would. Engineers who spent years building bespoke API integrations are about to watch screen control eat a chunk of that work. Multitasking on a Mac just got a second set of hands, and most people haven't noticed yet.

  Local open source agents and models will never be both (a) runnable on consumer hardware, and (b) as intelligent as frontier models. Seems to be something forever stuck as an indie toy for tinkerers, like running an email server in your basement instead of using gmail. And if you're using OAI or Anthropic models, I don't see a benefit in using an open source agent harness - just use CC, Codex, Grok, etc.

  Comparisons of Free Trial Abuse Prevention Services If you're running a SaaS with a free trial or focusing on PLG, authentication and abuse prevention are not the same problem. - WorkOS: If you're already using WorkOS, WorkOS Radar is probably the first thing I'd look at. For a WorkOS stack, WorkOS AuthKit + Radar makes the most sense. You don't need to bolt another authentication system onto your app just to get abuse signals. - Auth0, Supabase Auth, Better Auth: These are primarily identity/authentication platforms. Integrating only these can't prevent free trial abuse. - Custom: Like the previous options, you need a custom way to prevent free trial abuse. Most free trial abuse methods involve disposable emails, Google dot variations, Google/Gmail domain variations, and plus addressing. That's why even when you block bots via Cloudflare Turnstile or CAPTCHA, you can still get these abusers. The industry standards: - Block free trial abuse using lists hosted on GitHub: This is a pain in the ***. If you don't want to pay money, you can use a service that offers a generous free tier. - WorkOS Radar: This is mainly used at the enterprise level. They focus more on WorkOS-related integrations rather than integrations with other providers. - ZeroBounce, NeverBounce, MillionVerifier, DeBounce: These are mainly used to clean/validate emails. There are 100s of alternatives, and most are similar with minor differences. They all have disposable email checking APIs. - UserCheck: This is also an email validation API, but they focus on blocking fake email addresses. It's better than a basic email verification API. - Autheona: This is in the same category as WorkOS Radar and UserCheck, but with more features. It also focuses on fake user detection and is growing with a real user base. Now, pricing: - WorkOS Radar: First 1,000 checks free, then $100 per 50 checks. No application-specific logic changes. Easy to integrate and manage. - ZeroBounce: 100 free validations in the free tier, then pay-as-you-go, starting at 2,000 for $39, and so on. - NeverBounce: No free trial or use case, $8 per 1,000 checks. - UserCheck: 1,000 API requests per month in the free plan. The rule-based engine is not included in the free plan, and you can get up to 1 request per second. - Autheona: 3,000 checks per month, with the rule-based policy engine included. Standard API request rate limitations apply, similar to paid plans. Now, use cases: - WorkOS Radar: Block disposable emails, plus addressing, and Google dot variations. - ZeroBounce, NeverBounce, etc.: Block disposable emails. - UserCheck: Block disposable emails, plus addressing, and Google dot variations; detect public emails; email suggestions; syntax validation; role detection. - Autheona: Everything included in UserCheck, plus business/free/government email identification, deliverability checks, fraud patterns, punycode and mixed-script checks, VPN detection, and bot detection (not necessary if you already use CAPTCHA, Cloudflare, etc.). Final decision from me: - Use WorkOS Radar if you're already in the WorkOS ecosystem. It's harder to integrate with other auth providers. - Use ZeroBounce-like APIs if you need basic disposable email checks. They're not as good if you need a better free tier. - Use UserCheck if you only need email-related validation and want to stay within the free plan. - Use Autheona if you need the most generous free tier available with a custom policy engine. All services take a maximum of a few hours to integrate and test. Both UserCheck and Autheona have a similar approach: integrate once and never touch the code again.

  10. Check Your Login Devices Regularly 👀 Check your account activity at least once a month. Look for unknown devices or login sessions on Facebook, Gmail, WhatsApp, and other important accounts. See something suspicious? Log it out immediately.

  @MSFT365Status I have been down since 9:00 a.m. this morning! I own a IT technology business and I need to have my email up and running. Unfortunately, I had to use my Gmail account with a disclaimer at the bottom of the email saying that Microsoft's email was not working and therefore that's the difference in the email address. It is not acceptable for this to be down! Microsoft is big enough to handle any situation that comes down the line and this is a perfect example of Microsoft not keeping up with whatever happened. Was it an update? I don't think so! Was it a hack? I don't know! FIX IT!

  @pitdesi Summer of 2004 I built an app that used gmail attachments as cloud file storage, I called it Goggles. I showed it to a few classmates who worked at Google, they told me to shut it down immediately b/c I'll get sued. Keep wondering what've happened if I didn't listen.

  @RealMarkHe @bot I'm a Grok Heavy user, so honestly I have not had any issues. But I will acknowledge that I am not using it for certain things that take a lot of tokens: I am not programming a website or application, building a database, or cleaning up my Gmail (I'm retired, so I don't give a damn about email, one of the perks of retirement). I am using Bot the way 90% of the public would likely use it, as employees and confidants.
