Articles too much time too, so I made you this
I recommend Tuta over Proton. They're much more focused on their core product (not making their own crypto wallet or VPN or storage service or password manager), plus Tuta's leadership has never endorsed US Republicans, unlike Proton's
I kinda use most of proton's stuff. Also I'm not on the us so no idea what the second part means
The Proton CEO praised Trump and his control and choices regarding IT and antitrust some months ago. People said it was a "one-off" but then the Proton board backed up the CEO. Writing's been on the wall for a while.
Tailscale -> Headscale after you get comfy.
It's on my to-research list. I heard some rumblings that tailscale might go IPO. Not that's bad by itself but I have been burned by stuff like that leaving me stranded once they "pivot their operations to maximize investor satisfaction" (aka enshittification)
What? No. OSM or literally anything else than a fucking car. Stars and sextant.
Organic maps rocks
Organic died shortly ago (they'd been enshittifying for a while). We go with CoMaps nowadays.
Can't say I agree
He emphasized that for him living in Japan and mainly needing to use maps in order to navigate, the japanese car GPS is the best fit.
Which obviously is very different for people in a different situation.
Thats what Felix said, im personally a fan of OrganicMaps
Investigate CoMaps... There's some drama around Organic Maps due to bad leadership
It is up to you
Personally I don't see anything wrong
Because traffic data can't be obtained without some tracking...
I think it would be cool to do some sort of p2p network
Either way the problem isn't with the technology, but with how many people in a road junction is using that software.
In Japan they have an IR beacon system to track traffic congestion which works anonymously and lets offline car navigation systems have good-quality traffic info.
Great info so that's why non popular japaneese car app is working great for him
I think he actually used something else than proton, he didn’t mention though. Except that he uses his own domain name.
I drive believe he has started hosting his own email though
That is very hard to do
I salute anyone who tries but big tech as sort of captured the market.
Not all heros wear capes
