  • It’s not that is is a different ecosystem, it show shows how things can get bad very quickly. People like to say that they’ve the bridge that allows any generic IMAP/SMTP client to use their service, however what if they decide to disable the bridge? People talk a lot of shit about Microsoft and Google when it comes to email but at least those two provide email over standard protocols that can be used anywhere, not proprietary stuff. I wouldn’t be comfortable with having my email hostage to proprietary stuff like that.





  • It’s a Pi, what are you expecting. You just wasted a ton of money on inferior hardware with extra software issues. You could’ve just got a mini pc with 2 nvme slots instead for half the price and add a 6 port sata board for 20$ to one of those. Much cheaper, way more reliable, upgradable and ZFS actually would’ve work as you expect.


  • I’ve said this in the past, the app is good and works fine but it lacks a standalone desktop app…

    It’s a bit pointless to have it working [only] the way it does, it’s all JS already so why force people into Docker to install something that can already perfectly work as desktop app with Tauri, Electron or even something much simpler like a custom build C++ webview? Thanks.

    DNS0.eu is the new thing. Maybe also Control D Free DNS, Alternate DNS or if you want to go more hardcore LibreDNS. To be fair your biggest concern shouldn’t be only where you get your DNS from BUT also if it supports DoT and DoH - encrypting the DNS is more important for a lot people than actually using something other than Cloudflare or some other big company.








  • Sure, can they consider stopping wasting money / time actually develop useful stuff? For a DE that got €1M from the Sovereign Tech Fund they’re not showing results.

    Okay fine, desktop icons can be a design decision, however a “disable animations” toggle on the settings that doesn’t disable ALL animations… that’s just poorly made software, not something you may have an opinion on.



  • Yes, systemd is a very good and very well written piece of software while GNOME is a pile questionable decisions that uses web tech to create themes and takes about half a second to load up any window. Also the same pile where you’ve to use 3 different network management UIs to get stuff done. And… where you can’t have desktop icons because they were too hard to get done properly OR where you can’t have a “disable animations” toggle on the settings to actually disable ALL animations instead of just some stuff while leaving others arounds.
