They don’t respond on any platforms, so I doubt that.

It’s probably some dude testing the waters for a mass-spamming bot.

Tuta does not have a text-only mode for it’s interface.

Every once in a while they’ll send you an email with special CSS styling so you can’t avoid seeing it and you can’t unsubscribe from it. They call it a newsletter. It’s advertising. It’s less news and more begging you to buy more of their stuff. Very occasionally they’ll bump new features onto a higher tier but still show that feature in your UI, with special CSS styling. God forbid if they try to upgrade your account but you deny because you’re happy with the features you have now and the amount you pay; they push harder and harder the longer you’re on a ‘legacy’ tier.

It happened to me. It’ll happen to you.

I don’t know mailbox.org but tuta will try to upsell you, eventually. It’s going down the same path as Proton is so maybe stay away from it if you want to get away from Proton.

if this is blue you gotta check ur monitors color calibration

you’re both wrong it’s turquoise

I only looked at dumpdrop and it seemed fine, to me. Compared to other similar projects which are 10 times as large and provide essentially the same functionality. The world of web-based file-uploading solutions is fucked.

Can you explain the difference to me such that my feeble mind may understand?

Yeah let’s instead install a massive bloated shit project that the original developers left years ago and the maintainers don’t know heads from tails of the codebase because it’s too massive to maintain, with enough dependencies to make even a small child think he’s independent by comparison.

All so that we can, uh, synchronize a markdown text file across 3 computers.

These projects exist so that we don’t all have to re-invent the wheel every single time we need something simple. They have a purpose, even if they’re not pushing the envelope. I’ve developed a bunch of software to do extremely simple things for myself because all the existing options are massive and bloated and do a million more things than I need.

I’m sure your projects look impressive on your resumé, though.

they have to make money somehow.

I was a paying costumer.

Tuta will show you ads in your mailbox, don’t fall for it.

They show you ads as a premium user and spam your inbox with “news” that’s just poorly disguised upsell attempts.

Tuta are also enshittifying.

Buying your own domain and pointing its DNS at your email provider. The email provider is still your host, but you get to use maroon@yourdomain.tld everywhere and you can seamlessly switch providers. I’ve done it a few times, now.

people still use plex after the last sneaky they pulled?

Even if that was possible, I don’t want to crash innocents peoples browsers. My tar pits are deployed on live environments that normal users could find themselves navigating to and it’s overkill when if you simply respond to 404 Not Found with 200 OK and serve 15MB on the “error” page then bots will stop going to your site because you’re not important enough to deal with. It’s a low bar, but your data isn’t worth someone looking at your tactics and even thinking about circumventing it. They just stop attacking you.

Bots will blacklist your IP if you make it hostile to bots

This will save you bandwidth

Build tar pits.

Ah okay

It’s pretty funny because Darktable is what allowed me to ditch Adobe and go full Linux
