Disk encryption is just a button you click on install (Actually on most OSs now its the default)

I haven't done it but I see no reason why it would be hard. You just tell it the domain to use which should be able to include the subdomain. One thing is that usually you point the domain's nameserver at the mailinabox server and it sets up all the right records for you. If you can do that on a subdomain then it's super easy. If not you just have to manually set all the records. Mailinabox shows you everything to set if you do it this way though.

It's not at all a bad idea. When I had a look at all the pricings it seemed to be price per user. I have a few domains and loads of "users" on my $2.5 server. It's only me using it but I like to have different addresses for different things and it doesn't look like other hosts support this without paying the per user cost.

How is that hard at all? Log in to your email with thunderbird and have it open on boot.

If they can get in to your laptop then they can view your webmail.

Also disk encryption.

Its actually quite easy to move. In your Gmail settings you can have everything forwarded to another email so when you set up your new one you wont lose any emails sent to your old address

>(don't delete it, you don't want to risk it being re-allocated to someone else and that person accessing your recovery email on some forgotten service).

Deleted email addresses on gmail and pretty much every online service are never reusable for exactly this reason,

Google is just far too big. They don't have time for you. There are loads of smaller service providers that are great with customer service and don't use scripts that will randomly ban your account.

Backing up email isn't even hard. Just use a desktop client and you have a local copy now.

I run mine on a $2.5/month VPS with vultr. The price is so low its just not worth running at home.

I run mine on an Ubuntu LTS. About once every 2 weeks the server sends me an email about an update which just requires me to run apt update. I could even automate that if I wanted to.

I have run email servers for myself and businesses. Every single headache I have had was related to some user having a shit password or malware on there PC and then spammers send spam from their address.

My personal email server has been hassle free. I use https://mailinabox.email/ which you just run the setup script and tell it your domain name and everything is set up correctly. It sends me an email every now and then saying it needs updating and thats all.

I think the best way to reply to things a few days later is to write a post and submit the link as a post and not a comment so the algorithm treats it as new.

Really not a fan. Makes the url impossible to type on desktop.

Firefox has tab containers which are similar but can be open at the same time on the same window.

Comments like this remind me how out of touch I am with the average user.

Do you know of any of those cross plaform GUI tools that work in the web browser? Targeting Windows/Mac/Linux is easy but outside of JS I have seen no way that you can write one application that works on Web, Windows/Mac/Linux, Android and iOS

I have a .red domain and haven't hit any issues so far.

I really hate this. It's super scammy. Although namecheap does show a little message letting you know it costs more to renew.

Many companies sell software to do US taxes for you and an automated system would shut them down overnight so they spend a lot of money blocking any changes to make tax easy.

They do but thats not meant to be used on your app/website. It's mainly for editors to use.

I just wanted to add that I have been absolutely loving gitlab. Signed up in 2014 and use it pretty much daily.

One of the biggest problems I had was the speed of the web ui but since the great github migration the speed increased massively and has stayed snappy.

Contributing code to GitLab has also been my favorite experience with open source as not only were my changes looked at, Gitlab developers actually helped me get things working and write better code.

Ah yeah I say similar time because I don't check it too often but the pricing used to be: free, $500/month, and "contact us"

Absolutely, I use OSM all the time for walking paths and mountain bike trails because the coverage of them is perfect. Google maps seems to fall short where there isn't a lot of money to be made.

The main OSM org doesn't actually host any of the servers that end users use. They host a website for editors to contribute and publish data dumps. Devs providing access to OSM download the data dumps and host it on their own servers.

Absolutely. Search is pretty abysmal in many of the OSM apps. I did a bunch of editing for OSM a while ago and I went to search one of the things I had added and it didn't come up because I had searched "office works" instead of how it was entered in OSM "officeworks".

Around a similar time Mapbox also made their pricing much cheaper for lower usage users.

You don't need to use tokens to not have passwords leaked. Hashing has existed for a very long time.

I use an alternative search provider on my android (custom rom) Phone and don't feel like I have lost anything other than the ability to stay sane on a stock android device.

I'm liking the idea but I just can't see how we can get anywhere close to the current size and aesthetics of the current stuff we have. Being modular and standard leaves you much less ability to optimistic to the most compact and cheap design. Desktops have this kind of modular design and they are huge and mostly full of empty space. I think it would be very hard to design a laptop using standard modules without everyone just building the exact same laptop.
