Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•30M After divorce I got literally zero support from anyone, why?
1·7 months agoFriends come and go, maybe you don’t feel that way now but people can learn to live not depending on anybody for their well being. You just have to find your way and new friendships with the right people will show you that there is more to life than clinging on the past. Good luck!
I have tried kmail, Geary, mailspring before I landed on betterbird. I’m not sure what you mean with slow, but it works without issues on my pc. It does a lot of stuff, but it’s a fork of Thunderbird, which you want to exclude based on the initial thread. There are not a lot of linux clients even worth trying. Good luck finding your jam.

321·9 months agoL after L in EU. Yesterday it was butchering GDPR, today it’s putting backdoors in end to end encryption. What is next? The normal people can only take so much before they start burning shit and poking holes with pitchforks.

4·10 months agoOn Apple they were intentionally gimping your phone with updates and they got sued to change that practice. So you were correct to think that.

47·10 months agoCaptcha was never good at stopping bots. It was always used to identify who is a human. In other words exactly the opposite of what you think.
Edit: because I see confusion, maybe a language barrier, here is an example of what people think it is and how it works: https://youtube.com/shorts/rme6PT7-CRI?si=iGx_v7Qp7oYqJQ3S Which is wrong on many levels.
Here is a better explanation of what I meant: https://youtu.be/VTsBP21-XpI?si=viw0FEMffyhyba9v
Hope this explains it better than my original comment.
A couple years ago I read that Filecoin has teamed up with the internet archive to synchronize the data on the Blockchain. I’m not sure how far they are yet, but it’s something that could work if it doesn’t turn out to be just crypto hype in the end.
Well yeah, captcha/recaptcha was never designed to stop bots, but to spy without consent. Let’s not talk about the profit made by using it as unpaid labor to “decode” text and images for other companies. Should have been ditched long time ago.
