Sounds like an insane inconvenience. Sorry, what was the point of doing all this again? Just to prove you can?
Your ass better have a bicycle somewhere.
You guys are literally acting like e-mail is some cornerstone of a life well lived.
I’ll agree with the insufferable part though :)
The rest of your comment, I’ll just attribute to you projecting, which we all do, no one is better.
We're just saying that email is either necessary or a massive increase in convenience for engaging in a wide array of common digital interactions, including some that are extremely hard to get away from (utilities, banks, etc), and others that are part of what makes life worth living, rather than just subsistence survival (streaming services, online games, other luxuries).
Doing without something that's technically possible to avoid, but wastes a whole lot of your time and mental energy, and does not materially harm you in any way, does not make you a better person. Nor does it make you a worse person. It's something that's a personal choice.
Smugly presenting yourself as somehow better than us because you do without such things does make you a worse person.
But I do like the irony, some of you inferred I said “I am better than you”. The words are written by you - “makes you a worse person”, which I don’t need to make any inference on, I know what you said.
I’d give the same advice to anyone that believes they can’t live without coffee. Whether they drink it or not is none of my business, but their exclamation of an impossibility is something I might chime in on.
Start the thread again, I picked a specific thing to address with the GP. Don’t care if he/she uses email, the whole world uses email lol.
Just for shits and giggles:
I get a few text alerts from my bank, I check things out with the bank app. I read the utility mail (yes the paper bill) once a month. No email involved. If I lost my email, my bank and electricity would be fine. So would my internet. It’s not impossible.
Morality seeping into this discussion and holier than thou interpretations (casted on to me), are interesting and I’ll consider everyone’s input carefully and adjust going forward.
Edit:
I use email.
