Do you plan to offer a browser extension for those who would enjoy the Fediverse integration but don’t want to run a custom fork?

But what does that have to do with consumer privacy?

I’m not sure why being a “privacy vendor” forbids you from using AI tools in your development process

The bill suggests that violations may be “discovered through content moderation conducted by a human or via a non-human method, including use of an algorithm, machine learning, or other means.” Automated snooping on people’s private correspondence should constitute unlawful search. Fuck that.

My understanding is that Flatpaks are generally reserved for GUI applications and not command-line tools or servers. I’m not sure it’s the ideal format for Immich.

That said—and I’m probably going to get hate for this—there is an Immich snap package that does just what you’re looking for.

This package is essentially comprised of web apps which open in their own windows. It will not have the deep system integration that you may be used to on native MacOS. You could use this, or you could use iCloud in your browser like one might do with GSuite

This is a well-written post. I agree that “friction” involved with small changes and incompatibility with some Linux binaries are significant downsides. I think NixOS makes a lot of sense for development environments, but it’s not my preference for a personal device

Your average “rich” American (millionaires) are likely no better equipped than the average person when it comes online tracking and fingerprinting. The ultra-wealthy (billionaires) own the platforms carrying out such tracking. If you’re talking about tracking by governmental groups, I don’t think anyone is exempt.

Here’s my take. Companies must comply with the laws of the countries they operate in, so there’s always a chance that your data will be made accessible to authorities. If that’s your concern, your best bet is to only use services which offer end-to-end encryption. If you’re more worried about being tracked or profiled by corporations, the good news is that most cloud storage and email providers besides Google don’t sell your data anyway.

As long as you’re using an encrypted service, the choice of provider comes down to price and preference. If you’ve got multiple Apple devices and/or a Windows computer, I’d go with iCloud+. If you use Android and/or Linux and don’t want to use the Google Suite, then I’d defer to the suggestions of others on this thread.

And to your point on Private Relay, this is true. It’s not a bona fide VPN, but it definitely gets the job done if you use it on Apple devices to mask system-wide DNS requests and hide traffic in Safari.

I think $0.99 is extremely competitive for cloud storage, contacts & calendar, a VPN, and advanced email capabilities

This might be an unpopular opinion, but you should consider sticking with iCloud+. If you have Advanced Data Protection enabled, your data is end-to-end encrypted and Apple does not have access to the keys. You also get features like Hide My Mail (like you mentioned) and iCloud Private Relay included in the plan. I only pay 99 cents per month for 50 GB!

It depends on what you’re studying. Some majors like accounting might require you to use Excel, for example. On the other hand, when I was getting my BS+MS in computer engineering, running Linux was actually advantageous

Timshift is to Linux what Time Machine is to Macs. It’s a snapshot tool that lets you roll back a certain file or your entire filesystem to an earlier state

ElementaryOS does it this way

I use Arctic on iOS, and the web interface on desktop

Wow, that’s great. I don’t know of any other program that supports iWork files.

It’s awesome to see a project written with Zig!

I also use Homebank, and it’s more than enough for my needs as a single guy
