What is a good mail provider nowadays?Every single one asks for phone number, secondary e-mail address or does something retarded like you can't register to any online service without provided either of the two (Proton), some don't even use imap/pop and you can't use them with a client. It's hell.
>>108510859>I don't expect any privacy (other than manually encrypting messages with pgp keys, but that's on the user's end) i just want something that doesn't ask for my phone or some alt e-mail address and can be used with an e-mail client compared to proton or tutanota who do their own thing that's incompatible with any e-mail client because they want to larp as private services.Your only real options are joke emails like cock.li, pissmail and such.
Depends on your use case, but Proton seems a pretty good setup overall; even better if you get a paid version (either your own domain or theirs etc). >phone number, secondary emailthese are optionss but I don't recall them being required. If you absolutely are worried about it, you can just use a Firefox Relay generated email mask as your backup, or if you're willing to chance it one of the tempmail/guerilla mail addresses for the backup. However, as I recall theere is an option for Proton to basically check the tiny out of the way box that says >yes I realize that without the backup email or phone number if I lose my password etc..I realize I am truly fucked and Proton can't get it back for me this is not a drill it will be gone forever. option. At first they just want to make sure you're not fucking things up and then crying about it after they warned you. Also, if you have a paid proton unlimited/pro account you get all the features of SimpleLogin mail masks and proxies too; its under ProtonPass features.
>>108510887>>108510900I'm looking for something that i might be able to use in a more professional context. While cock.li seems to have decent alt domains (no swear words), I would prefer that if somebody looks up my e-mail address to not get hit with sites about cocks and piss and things like that. Thanks for the suggestion.>>108510997I already have a Proton e-mail but as far as i heard you need to setup something like a bridge to be able to use it with your client. Another time waster. Also check this >>108510859. They wanted a secondary e-mail so they can allow me to see certain confirmation e-mails and that just pissed me the fuck off. Got me real mad. The Firefox Relay thing as a secondary address for signing up is a really interesting idea. Got to look it up. Thanks.
>>108511070>Bridge to use with a clientThat's pretty much if you want full, E2EE including subjects like they use. You CAN simply turn on IMAP/POP3 on your account and export the OpenPGP keys, but like any other use that's just for the body. However, running the bridge in the background - a FOSS program : https://proton.me/mail/bridge - basically seamlessly sets this stuff up. If you plan to use Thunderbird, Outlook etc.. then its worthwhile and pretty easy with Proton using the Bridge, but you can also "manually" use the encryption keys if you want as mentioned though its not quite as smooth or cover as much as it were. The secondary email can be gotten around as there's an option in your account (I don't recall if its the main global account page or the proton mail account options ) that you can turn that shit off but they basically don't want you to use the account to sign up to other shit and then complain if some day you lose access to your proton account and have no passwords, backups etc. Relay is a pretty solid if not as comprehensive as the ProtonPass/SimpleLogin featureset; by default you can use a handful of free email masks or an unlimited amount per site if you pay like $2/month. If you only need one to mask to your old email to give to proton, then you won't even need a paid one.

Everyone please congratulate our friends at github for finally achieving ZERO NINES of availability! I'm sure it wasn't an easy road to get there, having only billions of dollars to run their website and all, but they've finally managed to set a new benchmark for enterprise software uptime!

>>108511444>does that mean I'll have to point to my home server as a DNS provider or something?YesThe quick rundown on dns in a network is that when clients connect to your router, your router will hand them the address of a dns server that they should use. (It's also common for routers to advertise themselves as the dns server, and just forward requests from there). Either way, your router will have a setting that lets you set a DNS server that machines on the network should use, and you'll point that at the custom DNS server you run and everything will use that.Note that applications are capable of having their own dns settings, for example if you go in your browser settings its possible to set a dns server there instead of using the system dns, so just be aware of that if you end up troubleshooting why something isn't going through your dns.>>108511194>I wouldn't have Viber installed if it wasn't for workidk what your work setup is like but you should be aware that if you're using a work VPN those will often fuck with your dns settings

it's very hard get vendor login on email. That said, google killed imap, so maybe it's hard to get your data out.maybe try an EU vpn and export your data, there'll probably be tools to push that to another imap inbox and you're free

My F1-8x v2 Classic just arrived and I built it up with Cherry Nixies (filmed) and dry. This is the first 'high end' keyboard that I am very disappointed in. It sounds so hollow and thin... just not a pleasure to type on. The Neo65cu sounds so much better and 1/2 the price, WITH tri-mode connectivity. Sad waste of $500 honestly.

Is it a controversial opinion on /g/ to say that I preferred when TVs didn't have their own OS frontend?I'm not saying linear TV didn't have it's problems but at least it always felt like it did what I wanted, not what it thought I wanted.The golden middle-ground was when you connected a streaming stick to a HDMI port on your dumb-TV.
>>108505966You get copilot
>They should make computers easier, like TV, so people in the community can get jobs>They do.>"Wow, I hate this!"
>>108505954>Is it a controversial opinion on /g/No. TV's became cancer and normies don't even know why. If you "need" Netflix and other streaming services, a "normal" android tv is "fine", as long as google allows "side loading" If you don't need "4k" streams and DRM, disconnect your "smart" TV from the Internet and just use a mini pc, raspi, etc. connected to your NAS and run Jellyfin or Streamio.
>>108505954Dumb TVs are good but smart TVs now with Google TV are also good. There was a transitory period of 10-15 years where smart TVs came with their own proprietary OS and they were all universally dogshit.
>>108505954>The golden middle-ground was when you connected a streaming stick to a HDMI port on your dumb-TV.The golden middle-ground is connecting your half-decent PC to a HDMI port on your modern "smart" TV while having never connected the TV to any kind of network.I've been doing this since 2011 and so far I've not seen any reason to stop doing that.Had a small problem when I moved in finding a working 10m HDMI 4K60 HDR cable (second one I ordered) and that was it.Anything wireless is and ALWAYS will be vastly inferior to a decent cable.Bluetooth? Might be faster than 20 years ago but stability is still an issue.Wifi? Same fucking thing.
