Just following up on this, I stumbled on this: https://tuta.com/mailbox

I think it might help. I could definitely see that depending on your use case, Mailbox may be a better choice. I think for general privacy they’re both good, with Tuta having a few “a step above” offerings security-wise but maybe not necessary for most users.

Hope they catch them and I hope those individuals lose their jobs.

I get it, and please, you do you. There’s no issue.

I’d just add that I can save money using Amazon, but I try to avoid it when I can. I’ll pay a little extra when I can, for the greater good.

I think I’d need some more time to really answer, but on the outset, I find Mailbox.org’s interface more intuitive with more settings and generally feels cleaner and more streamlined. Creating aliases and domain aliases in mailbox seems more proton-like in its simplicity.

Tuta I think is more private and secure, but bits of their interface and app need polish. One reason I think Tuta is more secure despite them both touting security and privacy is that Mailbox search works immediately, whereas Tuta requires you to agree to a permission and states it stores everything locally to you so it may take up space. I think Tuta isn’t doing any server-side indexing of any kind? Unsure.

edit: Mailbox doesn’t have a native app, and Tuta has a native app but I think it’s largely a webview. Notifications work OK but you’ll click on a notification and then have to wait for the app to actually connect and resync before you can view it.

I have two domains, one in each of Tuta and Mailbox. It was originally so I could try both out, but now I figure it doesn’t hurt to keep 'em separated. I’m still new to non-proton so I am sort of still feeling things out.

Nothing really too interesting or tricky about it, just bred out of curiosity.

Since ditching Proton for Tuta and Mailbox…I haven’t missed anything and I’m saving money.

To this day, I’ve yet to find a smartwatch that I like using and find as useful versus my former Pebble and Pebble 2. Those were the days, I guess.

For me, they’re also useful because a lot of my jobs don’t allow remote software to be installed on laptops, so I use something like this to be able to remote in still.

I have a 2023+, but it isn’t my daily driver. I’ll fiddle a little and see what I find.

Hope they’re ready to see me naked all day.

Used to be my favorite launcher and I, too, abandoned it. Sad, really.

This makes no sense. In my entire software development career, no government agency ever built an app in-house. It’s always contracted, to random individuals or companies. So this badge is garbage.

I miss my LG phone that let me customize the LED color based on app. That way if it were one color I knew it was semi-important, but other colors I knew were…dismissible.

I mean, yes and no. I have multiple Slack and multiple Teams instances. I also have 10 or so email accounts and then SMS and Signal.

Even spammy app notifications aside, I definitely get a lot.

But my solution is just leaving my phone on silent 24/7. So this feature wouldn’t really change anything.

I just set my phone to silent a couple years back and have never been happier. Have I missed a few phone calls? Yeah, but that is acceptable collateral damage.

I otherwise check on my own terms and that’s fine by me…(read: I pick up my phone, notice the number of notifications, and just click Clear All)
