We tried it but my wife hated it. With Proton, you have choose one subscription. I already use Pass plus so I can’t have Mail plus (shared calendars) without Proton ultimate which is an overkill in my situation and too expensive.
Tell me about it. Wallet is literally the only good option. The alternatives to Maps don’t come even close, it’s simply the best and most convenient app. Same with Earth (use it rarely but still).
Replaced
- Gmail -> Proton Mail
- Keep -> Joplin
- Docs -> LibreOffice + OpenDocument Reader
- Drive 100 Gb -> Proton Drive (free 5 Gb)
- Photos -> ente photos
- Play Books -> ReadEra Premium + Kobo
- Translate & Lens -> DeepL
Haven’t been able to replace (just yet)
- Wallet
- Maps & Earth
- Sheets
- Home
- Calendar
Gaiman was one of my favourite authors for nearly three decades. It fucking sucks and of course what he did doesn’t change his works, but it’s hard to recommend them anymore. New York magazine published a damning article in January. It’s awful, nightmarish and absolutely vile, what he did to those women, and sometimes even his son was in the same room… The article does a great job at painting this picture of a sad, lonely man traumatised by his heavy scientology past and abusive father.

abusive practicesjust say rape, that’s what it was. Neil Gaiman is a serial rapist. Also female employee = a homeless woman he and his wife “hired” (i.e. she didn’t get paid until it was time to get rid of her when it looked like she was going to contact the police) and sexually and emotionally abused over the years.
Austria is just magnificent, but the food… yeah it’s food. Italy on the other hand, magnificent AND has great food.
1·9 days agoI’ve already deleted my last account (I used to make a new one every other year or so) so I don’t comment or post anymore, but I use it to find info just about anything - I still add “reddit” at the end of my search (I use Startpage, it’s great). Old habbits die hard. I made my first reddit account in 2011. I don’t feel too bad about it. It is what it is.
In Finland the Police has been demanding full access to fingerprints originally gathered for passports and IDs (of around three million citizens) which means that the police could use them for other than their intended purposes. AND it looks like the police is finally going to have their way in this matter. This is how a police state is build, one step at a time until it’s too late to complain.
The today’s “brave new world” will start turning into Orwellian Big Brother society. It’s already happening. Of course neither option is great but I prefer drugs, orgies and idiots to surveillance, absolute police state and slaves/prisoners.

3·12 days agoAs a former Kagi user (quit all my US company subscriptions recently in order to support EU) I’ve now used Startpage for a month and it has been great so far.
55·12 days agoThat “just Pocahontas” argument is kind of tiring because retelling a story doesn’t automatically make it bad. It’s like saying “Lion King, meh, literally just Hamlet”.
1·22 days agoYou’re not wrong but AI crap is still AI crap. (I get it, memes are memes etc etc…)
Look at the right hand, it has like two fingers/stubs. Or that “vehicle” in the background. All the details are completely off. I’ve been fooled by AI photos too, but this is not one of them.
Thanks for the reply! I was only aware of the CEO’s X comments regarding Trump’s politics. I JUST moved away from Google and have been quite happy with Proton, especially Mail and Pass.
Honest, stupid question: Why exactly is this such a big deal to so many of you? (I don’t use Mastodon.)
You’d have to be blind to think that’s not AI. The details don’t make any sense and the proportions are just weird.
That’s the biggest reason I haven’t switched to Jellyfin.
