Switched to Posteo and Addy.io

Weird, LinkedIn works for me with Addy and a custom address. Same with GitHub.

Interesting, what sites have you experienced that with? I haven’t gotten blocked from anything so far.

Addy.io

Life changing. SimpleLogin sucks so much.

The tweet where he said Trump’s pick was great and that people forget that the Republican party is the one that fought against Big Tech, blah blah blah.

Let’s give him the benefit of the doubt for a second and say he isn’t familiar with why that isn’t true since he’s not American.

He is publicly tweeting something supporting Trump.

There’s a broad spectrum of people who are flawed which I’m 100% fine with acknowledging publicly that they did something right. But there is a line where it doesn’t matter anymore.

An extreme example: if I thought of something Hitler did that was good for the German people, should I tweet about it?

No. Because I don’t want to come off as supporting Hitler.

Trump and his administration are causing so much awful shit. The wording of Andy’s message wasn’t “Trump sucks but just FYI there’s one small thing he did right”. His wording was simply all positive, leaving the important context that Trump is a fascist out entirely.

I’ve left and canceled my paid subscription. Addy.io + Posteo. I like it way better.

Addy.io absolutely amazing.

I’ve gone with Posteo + Addy.io

I wish their UI were better though…

What’s the difference between caching online data and “local first”?

It does work offline AFAIK. What does it not do that you want it to do?

How does Newpipe work then?

I’m confused - I have a catch all alias, so anything @mydomain will work. Is there any reason I’d care about syncing these aliases?

Sounds like you want PipeWire - not related to a specific distro.

Yep, I got a post deleted by a mod here who also is a mod on Reddit. I was criticizing Proton, but they removed it for “trolling”. I messaged them explaining it was not trolling and asked politely for an explanation, but got no response.

Pretty sad and ironic that Proton needs to censor criticism like this.

The main thing keeping my partner from leaving Big Tech services is that Proton Calendar and other basic functionality sucks balls. The pricing plan is great but for the love of God, fix the basics and stop with all the new nonsense like AI and crypto.

Very weird that birthdate is an arbitrary text field. No way to know what format to put it in, so Proton doesn’t know how to parse it.

Which I’m really confused about. They have a LOT of paying users. They must be able to afford good devs. Where is all this money going? I want to see a breakdown of their expenses. That might not be outside the realm of reality now that they’re a nonprofit.

No, they’re too busy focusing their resources on shitty cryptocurrency wallets.

How is it barely functional? I use it and haven’t had any issues.

I am hoping for ProtonSearch one day.

I hope we get notes functionality too. I don’t understand why a password manager has notes / email alias stuff involved. I’d think email alias creation should be in ProtonMail and notes should be in Drive / Docs.

I’m talking about the user voice site in this post. That doesn’t use sign in with SimpleLogin or sign in with Proton (which also exists). You can sign into SimpleLogin with Proton.

Still in awe that I can’t find any “log in with Proton” option on Proton’s official feature request site.

Sure, but we’re talking about being able to select a Sender from the ProtonMail UI. It would be awesome if PM could do that, and it’s a highly requested feature. That would basically be the same as having it integrated so that the PM UI could allow you to choose a reverse SL alias when sending instead of navigating to SL, creating it manually, then copying and pasting into the To field.

Those are aliases, not addresses. I’m on a paid plan and also cannot edit the sender field to be these. That is only for different addresses.

You probably want SimpleLogin. I’d check that out.

Awesome, very well explained! Thank you.

Well the key tip is that recovery emails are not encrypted.

they’re using a free platform to post and advertisement

corporations need to stay out of sites like this

So they didn’t actually post anything here and normal people are posting the article themselves, which is exactly what you said you think should happen.

testeronious is Proton’s official Lemmy account?

Why is it trash for a business to write articles about how they’re beneficial to you and how to use them?

I mean, what else does anyone expect? The company which makes my cast iron skillet, which I love, writes blog posts about recipes for cast iron skillets, and always adds links to their products.

Yeah, that could be. I left beta, then a while later uninstalled and reinstalled and it worked for me. Might try clearing the app cache for both too.

What I did was remove myself from the “join the beta” option in the Play Store. That didn’t trigger a new update by itself, so I had to uninstall and reinstall from the Play Store. That got me back to the non-beta version. If you do that then you should be able to have a stable version from the Play Store and a beta from direct download.

ProtonMail had a special beta app which you needed to download directly from them and wasn’t on the Play Store. Then the Play Store app also has a “join the beta” option which you can opt into. I was opted into that. Even then, the one from the Play Store was not the same as the other.

A week or so ago they pushed an update so that the “join the beta” version from the Play Store was the same as the special one you needed to download from Proton.

That was a huge mistake IMO since the special one is extremely rough and lacking in basic features, and has bugs.

They said it has offline mode, which should work even if they terminate your account.

It’s a different community.
