Whole Food Plant Based and regular exercise, right?

Interesting! I am loving no calls across the board right now.

You're complaining about something I'd consider an upside, as opposed to a downside. Instead of some weird, one-stop-shop hivemind, you're going to need to piecemeal out your interactions with likeminded people and in this quest, you're going to be introduced to things you would have never sought out, which will also enhance and add to your life.

You can go to church or spirituality gatherings and talk with people who are into that stuff. Then you can go find a group of people who like the same physical activities as you, and so on.

I signed up for both by using my voip number without issue.

I've done similar, except I still have a phone with sim card (and a number I don't even know) for the odd chance I need to make a call when out and about and for things like mapping walking/driving routes, etc. I'll probably get rid of the sim, like you, in the coming months.

I used the recent spat of telemarketers bombarding myself, friends and family all day to finally make the move. It's been really amazing because of all the benefits you listed. Now I communicate when I'm ready, keeping my phone on DND 24/7, not at the behest of other's whims.

I ported the number most people have to Voip.ms. All calls now go directly to voicemail, where the message says that due to telemarketers, I no longer answer, so leave a VM or message me on a messenger app if we know each other.

If I need to make or return calls for business or services, I either use VOIP.ms SIP settings on GS Wave for my old number when I'm on wifi or use the number my sim has attached to it, which I don't know or give out.

All calls to or from family or friends are either done through Telegram, Signal or Facetime. 99% of the time though, I communicate through text on those apps. 1% of the time someomeone will send an sms, which I see in my email app and reply at my leisure.

There's only been 2 issues so far:

- One of my friends is oldschool and prefers to call my number eventhough I've trained him to use Telegram. However, I don't get back to his calls quickly since I only check email twice a day, where his transcribed voicemails now go. Like training a puppy, I reinforce him messaging me on Telegram with quicker answers, so as of a few a weeks ago, he's started to solely message or voice/video call me through Telegram.

- My partner was at the grocery store and was annoyed they couldn't call and have me pick up instantly for a quick question. They brought up the, "What would happen in an emergency?" I told them that since there's a .01% that a call to me in the moment would make a lick of difference, it's not worth keeping the floodgates open for that one, minute edgecase. They actually agreed after thinking it over a few minutes.

Me too!

This. You'd be amazed how many users just do a password reset each time to login instead of remembering their login info.

Love this! It's been a hassle wrangling friends since we all have different schedules and commitments and love the open concept of joining events.

which phone did you get? Do you tether the ipad to it when out and about?

Top tier consipircacy detective work there Sherlock! Just surprised someone has the identical experience as me and curious what solutions they're using in the interest of sharing and learning together. Who would have thought?

Are you me? Exact same story. How are you making/receiving calls and texts now?

Same. I've never read back any of my entries. I don't see the value in it

President Truman did this, as well. Apparently, some of them were absolutely scathing and full of language that he never would utter in public.

Hydrogen is what the fossil fuel industry would LOVE to be the defacto "sustainable" solution to the absolute disaster they've presided over. Anything they're for, I'm flatly against.

"'Sanctions' hit as hard back home as they do in Russia."

Source on this, please? At least in the US, they're experiencing economic problems due to the pandemic and its effects rippling through all social and business strata, not sanctions.

Also gotta add notmuch and some more of the other frontends - https://notmuchmail.org/frontends/

Which is also based on sup, because NM's creator found it to be slow and cumbersome.

Excellent read! Having relatives who fall into the poor single mother category it exactly describes their baffling actions and desires that I'd somehow missed.

The title doesn't do this piece any justice.

Migadu.com. They're fantastic and easy to use for this use case.

Having used Migadu and some of their competitors, MXRoute and Purelymail, I'm moving everything over to them.

Looks excellent! This is my major gripe with Stow as well.

Their first venture outside of beer is... A datacenter?... In some lava tubes?... On the... Moon?

Well, color me impressed! That's some chutzpah!

Where did you see the info for setting this up with Migadu? I believe they've had it as an unadvertised beta feature and the only write-up I found is this older one:

There's also instructions about caldav only on the migadu site here:

https://smtp2go.com maybe? Just discovered them the other day but yet to give it a whirl. Just when I was starting to double down on Postmark, they did this. Not blaming them, but we all know this is going to go badly (as a previous Active Campaign user).

Do the same but use a http://postmarkapp.com or https://www.smtp2go.com account where you likely pay nothing unless you're a heavy sender.

Had an issue with my self hosted email going to spam and these services solved it.

No, it's not.

Purelymail.com and Migadu.com are the two options that I see recommended a lot, outside of Fastmail. It just depends on your needs. I like both a lot.

They look great!

I've used Migadu and MXRoute and found Migadu to be the easiest to use by a long shot. MXRoute's setup and configuration is full of friction and just odd ways of doing simple things like logging into your account or adding email addresses and the like.

It sounds more like you have philosophical differences with these 2 companies, as they are very opinionated right out the gate, as you noted. I think, since they're small teams, they're trying to scare off users who are going to require a lot of time and effort on the customer service side.

That said, my interactions with both companies has been pleasant and professional. But it really does sound like you're going to need to roll your own service based on your major complaints.

Also not loading for me.
