Proton and its services have been pretty good. Some things to know about proton mail:

  • Search is only for titles, as content is encrypted
  • You can do search in the body in your browser. It downloads your email into the browser and searchers locally. It takes a while to do this and build up indexes. I haven't had too much issue searching for things though.
  • Since they don't read your email, no automatic calendar events if there isn't a .ics

The VPN had been great

The storage isn't enough for me to be able to move off of my main cloud provider. There also isn't a way to pin a file on Android for it - and the 500gGB of space is less than I use

The Pass app is handy and it's easy to make aliases, though it often doesn't know to fill in, doesn't do it, or something, and I need to open the app to copy paste. Pretty trivial though.

I'm sticking with them. I don't really have a reason to leave. The aliases are really nice, the catch is that it's not easy to have them go to a sub email address that I use - it has to go to your primary email. Not a huge deal though.

Low effort? I thought winning a tournament was big effort!

I recently was talking with someone in south America about things in the US, most of which they hated, then when I got to "yeah, a lot of people sell plasma to help get through school" they were like "WTF! I hate your country! Here we do it as a donation! And you do it to help get through school!?" 😂

Tl;dr - fediverse probably won't do too much, and it does have discoverability issues, along with migration issues

I was talking with a guy from china and his advice for visiting was: don't go to the touristy places and monuments. There are too many people. Do a food tour.

He also hates crowds, so take that as you will.

I was curious, here's the driving route on GMaps

I know this is quite late, but I sold everything and have been fully nomadic for the past year.

I cycle between wanting to travel more and wanting to have some stability in relationships, places, etc. During those times I'll rent space for longer in a CoLive arrangement so that I still have social interactions.

I may be interested. What does being a moderator actually look like in doing it?
