I'm in the same situation. I've been a Linux user in some form for many years but I'm just now getting to the daily driver desktop stage. I'm trying to work out all the little nuances in migrating from macOS/iCloud. I'm doing it with Pop because that's the distro that has felt the most natural to me. However, I'm finding that some of the apps don't support my cloud syncing needs adequately (e.g., Calendar, Contacts, Reminders). Part of it is just finding the right cloud provider but I'm also. hoping the new COSMIC apps have better CalDAV and CardDAV support. At this point it's just minor things so here's hoping for a bit better results with the newer version. It's Linux, though, so I'm sure I can find a solution.

That's the great thing about it. You choose what works for you. When you don't chase what other people think you should be using, you get more value out of what you want to be using.

No, but thanks.

How do you use your own domain between Proton and Tuta?

Thanks for posting this! As an American who dislikes the big tech here, these are helpful in knowing what's beyond our borders. I had never heard of Infomaniak before you posted! I currently use Proton but I'm not happy with the ability of their calendar and contacts to integrate with my underlying system. I've also been looking at mailbox.org to expand my capabilities there.

Many of us did it that way in the past. I still bring a notebook to in-person meetings for handwritten notes. I only have a few smart bulbs and smart switches in the house because they are more accurate than the analog timers. There are things like digital music that make life far more convenient than records, tapes, and CDs, though. So much technology is unnecessary, though.

In the laws references in the article, the need for #1 and #3 were caused by social media. Yet we target the individual rather than the social media company for the fix. Let's don't fix the source of the problem but we can make life more difficult for many millions of people. How dumb are we in this country?

I noticed that the send button was grayed out if you tried to report an incorrect name.

Not this gen-xer or any of the others I know well.

I hate having to see his face all the time. He's so bad I'd vote for a literal giant douche or turd sandwich over him.

Poor little Tommy. What will he do when all his boomer supporters have died?
