Matt,

If checking their email a couple of times per year is too high a requirement, I would not recommend the time and effort necessary to maintain a mail server. Even people who enjoy self-hosting often do not want to host a mail server.

Matt,

Signal still requires a phone number to use it. What they recently added is the ability to message people without needing to know their phone number.

Matt,

I use Radicale for my calendars, reminders, and contacts precisely because of how minimal it is. It has been very reliable for me and is very easy to back up and restore since it is just files.

Create a different alias for everything using a service like:

  • SimpleLogin
  • Addy (AnonAddy)
  • Firefox Relay
  • Apple Hide My Email
Matt,

Yes. With MXroute, you pay for storage and can create as many accounts, emails, aliases, etc. as you want.

Matt,

If Google would have said upfront that all purchases would be refunded when Stadia shuts down, it likely would have increased confidence enough that people would actually use it.

Matt,

iOS Reminders app synced with Radicale server.

Pick one

Matt,

This is disappointing as someone who does not want everything centralized under one company. I have tried to diversify the services I use, but this is the second one that Proton has acquired.

SimpleLogin development has essentially been stalled since they were acquired by Proton as resources were used to develop Pass instead. I have a feeling that Standard Notes will be treated similarly.

Any "smart" Gallery app?

Hi guys! Is there any smart gallery app that can help tag/search the gallery pictures through automatically created tags, such as objects/things recognized in the pictures, locations etc? This is a rather convenient feature in some apple and samsung phones, which I think would be nice to have…But I reckon must consume some...

Matt,

Apple does it locally on the device.

Matt,

Libro.fm and Downpour both sell DRM-free audiobooks and offer an optional subscription credit model similar to Audible.

Matt,

Photopea is a great web-based photo editor, but it is not FOSS.

Matt,

While it would be great to see official support, the Heroic Games Launcher is a very good way to play GOG (as well as Epic and Amazon Prime) games on Linux.

Matt,

There is a setting to automatically check for updates. I would see if that is enabled.

Matt,

VirtualBox still does not support Apple Silicon well. UTM is a great free and open source alternative.

Anyone know of a good wiki/knowledge base software that is portable?

I have a bookstack instance self-hosted and I quick like the program and workflow. I like having ‘books’ of information to separate/organize my information. It feels very much like folder heirarchy to me, and while that has its issues, I prefer it. Being able to add tags to pages helps alleviate some of those issues and...

Matt,

DokuWiki. Everything is a text file that can just be copied to a web server. It doesn’t even require a database. And since all the wiki pages are plaintext markdown files, they can still be easily accessed and read even when the server is down.

Matt,

Telegram still requires a phone number to sign up, but they have had usernames that can be used to contact people without needing their phone number. Signal is only now finally rolling out usernames.

Matt,

The transfer partners will also be available for the no annual fee Autograph as well.

Matt,

Fedora will not get Plasma 6 until 40 releases next month in April.

Which privacy services would you donate to?

Due to financial problems, throughout my privacy journey I have only used free tools to enhance my privacy. I was recently thinking about the question: If I had the money to give back to the services I’ve used, which ones would I donate to? Here is my personal list, which is still a WIP:...

Matt,

Plus donations to Mozilla cannot even be used for Firefox development due to the structure of the foundation and corporation.

Matt,

No, KDE does not have their own virtualization gui. Boxes can still be used on KDE as well though. If you really want nothing to do with Gnome, then virt-manager will be your best option.
