such as TerraMaster

The reputable brand that quietly updated my device in the middle of the night and reset my password to a randomly generated one, locking me out of the device? That brand? The brand that runs their OS off of a USB stick inside the device so it’s always a ticking time bomb that might just stop working randomly? That one?

I’ve turned down many self-hosted options due to the complexity of the setup and maintenance.

Do you agree with this?

Yes. If I have to spend an hour reading your documentation just to find out how to run the damn thing, I’m not going to run it.

I hate docker with a passion because it seems like the people who develop on it forego writing documentation because docker “just works” except when it doesn’t.

I archived one of my github repos the other day because someone requested I add docker support. It’s a project I made specifically to not use docker…

Previously Tuta (I don’t recommend them, they’re going down a path slow enshittification)

Now Disroot, which lets you use a custom domain with a catchall for a one time payment. https://disroot.org/en/perks

Is that something you have experience with or are you just making up scenarios to pose as arguments?

Because I’ve been doing this for years and I don’t have this issue. You could also just preemptively auto-trash anything that goes to those very common emails, but I don’t and it’s not an issue.

Buy a domain and set your email to catchall, then make a unique email for everything and don’t fiddle with aliases.

I have this bound to a hotkey for quick screenrecording

Danish healthcare is covered but good luck getting any treatment

You can’t run for politics unless you’re already a known figure with a wide reach. Please don’t pretend that our iteration of democracy isn’t extremely insular and gatekept.

Not that I support this type of legislation, but I think you would be surprised how dumb sexual deviants often are.

I’m so traumatized I don’t even have to do it to know

I just cancelled my premium tuta account because they wouldn’t stop trying to upsell and now I have to look at their ads here!?

It’s a joke about how VALVEe runs their franchise Team Fortress 2

Well if they ever pull another “you must use snap or die”, you’ll have to imagine it. Thankfully, this exists https://github.com/acmesh-official/acme.sh

I know its antithetical to Flatpak sandboxing, but I genuinely spent hours trying to move a non-Flatpak profile to flatpak and gave up. I gave the Flatpak filesystem permissions and then it would use the usual ~/.firefox folder, even if it says it doesn’t in about:profiles.

I can’t explain why any of this works the way it does but it appears that Firefox is just very confused about profiles when it exists in a Flatpak container.

Privacy wise? Probably nothing. The company engages in shitty behavior, though, and will try to upsell you even if you’re a paying costumer. I switched to Tuta because of that, and then Tuta started doing all the same bs…

The luddites were not opposed to technology

I’m surprised it has managed to stay alive for so long, in the first place.

Thank you for the write-up, it was informative!

You probably don’t have a premium account; you have the whatever they call the new premium accounts. The premium accounts are legacy and don’t get new features, so you just have those features and don’t get advertised them.

There are also the thinly veiled ‘news’ emails that show up with special CSS flair in your inbox- but it’s not news, it just them trying to upsell you stuff and get you hyped about [Latest Product].

Ah just in time for me to unsubscribe because they’ve started putting ads in my premium account!
