Notice

Google mail client in Android refuses to login on other addresses than gmail.com!!!

I noticed a while back that the Google client fights back when I want to login on my email addresses which deviate from the Google domain. The client started with putting delays, before opening those accounts. It also randomly injected that those accounts were not safe while all standard Open Source safety measures are taken on both the servers and the clients.
When scaring you into using your {own hosted} email server fails, the gmail Android client degrades to the following behavior

The Google mail client in Android blatantly refuses to open the mails on those addresses.

##The Android client fakes, hallucinates, out of memory errors...

...even when all other programs on the phone have been taken out of memory. It's like someone put in LLM hallucinated slop code in that part of the gmail client

Very anti-consumer this Behavior

Of course I have an Open Source e-mail client running 🎽 on my Androids

I've seen this behavior coming years before. No I'm not going to recommend any open source email client to you, to use on your Android, to fetch and process your mail.
There are enough choices to make your own

Just remember that Google hates all of us

Google hates their clients

Google as a company hates their consumers never forget that

jump ship.

Google is now the Bell Phone Company of the 1960s

🟢 That green light glowing in the dark is a mesh radio, GPS receiver, AI assistant, and emergency communications terminal — all running on battery inside a weatherproof aluminum box I built from scratch.

Meet the Cochrane Device — S/N 001.

After Hurricane Maria knocked out communications across Puerto Rico for months, I wanted a way to keep my family connected when everything fails. No cell towers. No internet. No power grid.

So I built one.

📦 Inside the IP66 aluminum enclosure:
→ Meshtastic LoRa mesh radio — encrypted, 15km range per hop
→ GPS with 3D fix in 18 seconds
→ WiFi hotspot so your phone becomes a node
→ Linux computer running full service stack
→ AI assistant that writes scripts on demand in the field
→ Remote access via Tailscale from anywhere on earth
→ 6-8 hours battery, solar chargeable

This is S/N 001 — the prototype. Every lesson learned here makes the next one better.

I've been running #Tumpa CLI for a while on a few selected git repositories, where I use #yubikey for the #PGP key storage.

Today I have globally replaced gpg2 with tcli and tglig in the git config. It does the job very well and is far less annoying than gpg ever was. The tcli agent is also much more nicely behaving than the gpg-agent.

Thank you, @kushal for an excellent work on Tumpa!

And I'm even more impressed that Tumpa even handles multiple Yubikeys plugged in in parallel. It selects the right key for the right identity and the tcli agent even caches the needed passphrase/PIN as expected. This is something which was a complete mess with GnuPG.
