That's nearsighted. Do you wear glasses? Do they give you headaches?

Not a complaint but a question based on the fact. I wasn't complaining, but you very much so did to me.

Looks like I'll be learning about bridges.

How does that not defeat the purpose of Proton?

At least the OAuth2 access is protected. That's the detail I needed to see.

So many articles suck these days.

That's the direct implication of the innate nature of capitalism. News publishers drive researchers and writers into mill writing which unfortunately involves reworded mimicry of the few who publish the original "investigative research" they recorded from the source. They're doing it for money too, so they aren't alloted enough time to fully investigate off they want to publish their name to juicy details first before those who can and will fully investigate it to publish a full exposé.

We expect news publishers to dramatize titles for the click-bait effect at their websites. But within a public forum platform (here), reposting the click-bait title into the community post effectively misleads forum readers because this space is personable and honest, so we expect an honest post title here. News publishers know this and exploit that in Reddit, but hopefully not here. Every time I see OPs copy-posting and running off, I have to suspect industry marketing efforts in effect, perhaps especially when OP is a bot.

I really don't want to see Lemmy become polluted with news marketing as though this platform is at all open to the same abuse as that socialist dictatorship platform we left to be here.

The title seems dramatic, but using the Outlook client to link a third-party account is supposed to connect to those emails with the respective credentials, right?

Why bridged to Thunderbird?

Yeah, but that 500MB storage . . . needs a game plan.

Except when 2FA requires a TOTP in the form of out of season fruits in an incompatible combo with canned spinach.

Thank you for making the internet user-friendly instead of exclusive. You deserve to contribute.
