When I migrated emails last time, I setup my old email to automatically forward to the new email. Then on my new email, I setup an automatic label for any email that was addressed to the old address. Every week or two I’d review what was sent to it and either update the email address used or unsubscribe. Eventually it got to a level where I wasn’t getting much at the old email anymore and finally deleted it.

Bridge doesn’t support the calendar yet from what I’ve heard.

You can get notifications in other profiles. However it’ll be a generic “Profile X has a notification”. Tapping it will swap profles, but not exactly seamless.

It’s not that it’s closed, it’s more that none of the exiting email protocols support a server which can’t read your email (as it’s all encrypted). They do offer Proton Bridge which you can run locally which will handle all the decryption and local mail clients can talk to that as the would any other mail server.

I don’t know off hand if it supports calendar syncing though.

I’d say the main benefit Futo has over Heliboard is that it has native swype typing with its own model (and also own voice typing model).

Still a bit light on customisation (certainly compared to Heliboard), but a nice first release certainly.

Another vote for Immich. It’s a really nice experience on both the web and app.

I believe Steve has said that he hates the title/thumbnails too. But Google’s algorithms heavily incentives them, so he reluctantly uses them while maintaining the good quality content.

I do the two profiles on mine as well. The Google profile isn’t allowed to run in the background so it’s only active when I’m using an app that really needs it. Down to just a single app now that needs it.

This was the tool I used. It worked great for me.

Mine was having issues the other day too. Couldn’t see any apps when I opened it. Started working again when I checked it the next day.

I’ve swapped to using it since I switched to GrapheneOS. Only apps I’ve got using it so far are Tusky (Mastodon), Molly (Signal fork with UnifiedPush), and some of my self hosted stuff which allows for web hooks.

I really hope it catches on in more apps. Especially as their library has automatic fallback to Google’s service.

It’s not about it being locked. It’s being able to re-lock it after unlocking. You can unlock it, flash something like GrapheneOS on to it and then re-lock it. If it’s left unlocked, then anyone with a few minutes access to your phone could flash anything over the top allowing them to bypass the standard protections, install any app as at the system level.

I’ve tried a few of them now and have settled on Eternity.

FYI, last week someone saw that Signal merged in code for username (no phone number) support. So it might not be long until you see a beta release which allows you to sign up without a phone number.

I swapped to it at the start of the year. I’ve been really enjoying it so far. I’m down to a single app which requires Google Play Services installed. As it’s only one app I’ve created a second profile specifically for it and only have Google services installed in that one. I’ve disallowed it running in the background too, so my phone is never running the services outside the brief times I need to use the app.

Losing contactless payments was a minor inconvenience, but I picked up one of the cases which can fit a couple of cards inside as an alternative.

Set Immich up a couple weeks ago and I’m surprised how good it is. Their docs included a simple cli tool to bulk import all my Google photos. Mobile app is working great. I’m really impressed with the search too.

I’ve never really had a use case for it myself. I’m happy using Bitwarden at present. It’s certainly a fun read and a good solution for anyone in need of a completely offline solution.

I really like how easy it is to customise it so that even if someone got a copy of your square, they wouldn’t necessarily be able to get your passwords. Changing your starting row or column or adding a few characters at the start of the domain will completely change the output. I’d imagine you’d need both the square and multiple passwords to even attempt to brute force a solution back out of it.

This feels like a weaker version of GRC’s Off The Grid system. https://www.grc.com/offthegrid.htm

It doesn’t require you to remember something different per website. It’s designed so that you can turn any site name (E.g. Amazon) into a secure password which is unique to you. If you really need a completely offline solution, I don’t think it gets too much better than that.

They’re still posting on Mastodon. They did say that they had finished up the story arc/backlog that had. So not as many posts around here.

In that case Proton wouldn’t be providing the data, the user would be. Proton can’t provide what they don’t have.
