.........Touché.

I feel ya there, friend. Haha.

Okay, so it’s likely to happen. I never disputed that. But just because the VP says he intends for it to happen still is not the same as a statement by the company that it will happen. He could get vetoed. He could lose his job. There could be a material shortage. Trademark disputes. A kraken could fly through his window and devour his testicles forcing him to be in the hospital on the exact day the paperwork has to be filed.

The fact remains this article is titled in a very clickbaity way because it jumps to the foregone conclusion that “want to do” = “will 100% happen”.

His goal.

A VP could have the goal to increase profits by 500% over the next 6 months but that doesn’t mean it’s gonna happen.

It might happen, but just because someone says it’s their goal is no confirmation that it will happen.

Oh shit.

Well that clears things up. Thanks for the explanation. thumbs-up

Oof, yeah I forgot about the metadata… What you say is certainly true and is worrisome.

Plus, most people who use email don’t use encrypted email so even if they can’t get a transcript of a conversation from my account, they can certainly get everything from the other account if they also scrape that platform.

No worries. Like I said, I recognize it’s a nitpick so not a huge deal. I just thought I’d mention it. It doesn’t invalidate your original comment or anything. :)

Lol yeah I heard about that. Apparently they also preemptively made post-quantum encryption illegal? Yeah, I don’t like the US, but I’m not sure I’d wanna live in Sweden, that’s for sure.

.............If that is the case, I...am concerned. o_o

Okay. I don’t understand your point. It may be broken. It may suck ass. But it’s certainly not a scam.

What are they gonna do? Download gibberish?! Lol, it’s all end-to-end encrypted with the decryption keys stored locally.

Edit: See below comment by @drascus@sh.itjust.works. Shit’s still concerning.

Aww man seriously DuckDuckGo is on the list? Ugh… Welp, does anyone know of any good alternatives? (I hear Ecosia’s not half-bad…)

Not sure about the Mail app, but the Calendar app was definitely slow, though I believe that’s because it didn’t have offline caching and just fetched from the site every time you opened it up. Terrible, lazy design IMO.

It’s not a scam. It worked perfectly first try for me back when I tried it out like a year ago.

Especially skip the ProtonVPN app if you’re on Linux.

To steal a line from LGR’s video on Redguard, it’s just so B A L L S.

If you can only get Service B by paying for Service A, then Service B isn’t really free; it’s just added value.

A nitpick, yes, but I feel it’s an important one.

Oh I get it! It’s certainly not easy. Haha. I struggle with it myself, but I’ve noticed that my mental health improves the more uncluttered my external life is, and my browser is a part of the latter.

“A tidy room is a tidy mind” and all that… It’s not 100% accurate, but it’s got a ring of truth to it, I’ve found, at least for me.

You know, I’ve been trying Zen and although I still prefer horizontal to vertical, I can see I was actually somewhat wrong about what I said.

The sidebar is actually expandable (they don’t make that clear) and if you do expand it beyond its default, you can actually see more of each tab’s titles. It actually helps a lot if you have a shitload of tabs.

If you are like me however and typically try to have only a smaller number of tabs pinned (or consistently open), typically no more than like a third of your screen width at most, then there really is not much of a difference unless you’re already used to vertical over horizontal tab bars.

Oh that’s funny x3
