Do you mean, you host your custom domain at #proton (well, you have the proper DNS records pointing to Proton Mail), and then you can have certain mails being forwarded to any other address?
I do believe that I need the same, I think it is indeed what is announced here, but I'm not sure.
For example, I want to bring "mydomain.com" to Proton, have "me@mydomain.com" on it, and when someone sends a mail to "family@mydomain.com", I get a copy, and my wife gets a copy (on her address outside of Proton, like mywife@gmail.com) ?
@kuoirad@protonmail I've tested this too and indeed, it works as intended but only if you have setup an address in Proton. Not a full account, an address. Also, it's indeed a forward, with a copy kept in your inbox.
I'm personally happy with the setup, my domain redirects to Proton, I have added "family@mydomain" in Proton, and emails sent to that address will arrive in my inbox, with a copy forwarded to "mywife@gmail.com"
How have others gotten friends/family to make the switch? I’ve been doing a cleanup of my digital life over the last year or so and am trying to move to using more privacy friendly alternatives where possible....
Starting a new job, and I'm really interested to couple this with a new app to combine notes, todo, ... I hear so many people falling in love with #obsidian , but it looks complex at first sight...
Is it really worth investing time in it? Any recommended alternatives?
@tuxicoman jv.com , c'est de pire en pire... entre un nombre croissant de publicités (y compris des faux articles comme celui-ci), des trolls partout, ...
Hey les amis du #velo et du #velotaf !
Que recommendez vous comme "surcouche" imperméable pour rouler à vélo (électrique) et arriver le plus sec possible au bureau?
J'envisage l'option "je m'en fous, j'arrive, je me douche et je me change", mais rester sec et être prêt est à explorer... je pense 😅
@simplelogin Very tempted! For my understanding, with a custom domain brought to #simplelogin , am I then able to use you as a "mail service" (and stop paying for a priced mail plan elsewhere)?
Also, if the above is true, do you support email rules (for example auto-forward)?
@Lockdownyourlife I still find #infosec recommendations about #whatsapp quite paradoxal, like dealing with the devil... I might be too stubborn though 😇
@organicmaps Hello! Am I correct that currently, no open source maps app take cars traffic into account, since to my knowledge, traffic info is kept under the umbrella of each proprietary app?
@organicmaps@a Which kind of skill set would you require? I have some spare time, would love to help, I have IT background but no development skills...
@AAKL@zdnet@jlwallen Yes, unfortunately all based on #WebKit , and I blame #Apple for not giving users a real choice about what browser they really want to use.
For now, to me, all iOS browsers are Safari in disguise 😢
I do wonder how many people are staying on Twitter due to follower count alone. Having had an account for over a decade, I'd have previously estimated about 20% of my followers were dead accounts. Based on now leaving and making new accounts on other platforms, my estimate is closer to 90%.
As a blogger I've always known only like 1% of people who retweet/like a post actually clicked the link and read the article, but I assumed that was just a social media thing. Having experimented with basically every other platform, I learned it's more likely that a significant number of Twitter engagements are fake, and those that aren't don't really care enough to read your work, they'll just give you a retweet/like for appearances.
